That's how I got it. I think it was from Wayside mail-order in Maryland,
but can't be sure. They were my main source for recordings for many years,
including the original handmade cover Negativland LP and the incredible
Furious Pig.

As I recall, the radio series was long, and would not fit on the 2-LP set.
Again, I'll have to check, as I haven't looked at this stuff in years!

Thanks for the reference. Interesting about the artwork differences.
