The Benefit of Drying Out Completely in Water
yes, indeed, the extension sketches for what was (and will always be, most likely) The Hafler Trio's Mastery of Money, first released in 1992, and now being worked on - ultimately to present the definitive versions as a whole before this mortal's expiration date. This makes them Is As Thought it Were Not the second part, to be more precise. The lovely people who bought the first part will have the possibility of purchasing at a lower price than those who did not, and so we wait, patiently with a cup of cocoa at the very least, for them to pledge their allegiance to the whole thingy. Then, if there are any left, the multitudes may tear themselves apart for the remaining copies. More news as it arrives on this saintly desk.
