I thought > remember listening to Maurice's classic "This is > Acid" off that comp. Is there another acid house > comp from the early waxtrax collection? Here's a tracklisting on this: side one: king tubby - psyche out (r.norris/gpo) pearl necklace - rapid bliss (r.norris/gpo) thee loaded angels - aquarius rising (r.norris/gpo) wolves of the sun - last night (r.norris/gpo) mistress mix - blue heart (paula po/r.norris/gpo) grisedla - oxygen (r.norris/gpo) side two: psychic tv - jump thee gun (gpo) over thee brink - terminate (r.norris/gpo) vernon castle - youth (r.norris/gpo) nobody uninc - only human (nobody uninc/r.norris/gpo) alligator sheer - balkan red alert (d. ball) m.e.s.h. - m.e.s.h. (ball/norris) side three: virgina featuring mista luv (ball/ball) sugardog - groove to get down (gosling/wheelan) mistress mix - wicked (paula po/gpo) psychic tv - scared to live (gpo) side four: dj doktor megatrip & mista luv (gpo/ball) sickbomb - sandoz tabman (gianelli) psychic tv - tune in (turn on the acid house) (gpo) dj doktor megatrip & mista luv - joy (gpo/ball) members of psychic tv at one time or another that i know of: genesis, paula, david ball, fred gianelli & john gosling... if i remember correctly, the jack the tab collected a bunch of tracks from various other releases... more material in this vein included Ultrahouse & Towards (and Beyond) Thee Infinite Beat, the M.E.S.H. 12", along with some other stuff... The comp you're thinking of must be a different one, but I wouldn't doubt that WaxTrax released it... xxxx@xxxxx.xxx[icq: 12645306] http://www.sonic.net/~brap/ sfwd prod | noisesoundnoise chris g. 1547 boston court #7, santa rosa, ca 95405
