[Mael-list] Introducing album cover

[Derek Paice]

Always nice to hear from Madeline, of course :-)  Recent discussion has also
brought us wisdom from Ultravox 5; nice to hear from you too!  Now, where's
Larry ... and Marisa and Richard and Laurie and the Captain who used to
write about Squirrels more than Sparks?  How easy it is to become nostalgic.

A happy 7th September to all our readers ;-)

(ps back on topic ... Ron's 12-year-old-with-false-m-m-m-m-m-moustache look?
Apart from being eternally youthful, of course, wasn't a little make-up and
pre-Photoshop air-brushing involved to stylise both pictures?  Btw, for U &
R, the pics are turned sideways, as Lyell said.  Russell's head is towards
the sleeve opening.  Are we really this bored!!!)

I concur- it's been a long time Madeline, it's great to see your name
on this list!

PS- good to see you too Craig, and Lyell as well- my LA 1998 buddies.
