(Not to mention the alternative spellings of "Bhekhirst" and "Diaz".) How could anyone be so sloppy as to make an error like that accidentally, while at the same time procuring a rubber stamp with the correctly spelt name of the singer to stamp on every copy of the record? And why is the song "V5"? Does this mean that "Hot In The Airport" versions 1-4 still exist somewhere? Do you have a track listing for the album? The incorrectmusic.com and wfmu.org archive lists (in no particular order): Hot In The Airport I Will Sing Freshing Air I Run My Car Time Passing Over All You Dance Dalmar [instrumental] Everytime I (Think Of You) Rain In Summer I assume one of these (maybe "Dalmar"?) is the B-side. (I did a websearch for "Dalmar", by the way, in the hope that it might turn up a link with Belgium, but it seems to be a word that is used in a surprisingly large number of cultures... there's a Somalian radio show called "Radio Dalmar".) (???) HDG Records is non-existent on the web - another Corwood? The plot refuses to thicken. |

By the way, I have a feeling that the looping repeat that shows up on the tape version of "Hot in the Airport" is absent from the 7-inch, as the WFMU file of it (back when it was up) didn't have any repeat that I recall, though I may be misremembering. "Dalmar" would be a very appropriate B-side, if only because it and "HITA" are so different from all the other tracks -- "Dalmar" being as you said an instrumental (and one that sounds oddly Syd Barrett-like). |

I know that they had the single for a year or two before the tape surfaced, so that was the reason to my conjecture. |
