I'm sure you all know about Peter's contributions of "Rattlesnake Shake" and "Super Brains". It's a nice album.

I'm surprised that they haven't re-released "I'm Not Me". It was a much better album.

I notice it is out on Wounded Bird Records. A quick look at their website says they are a "CD reissue label". I know that Mick was talking about re-releasing it on Tall Man Records prior to that failing, but I wonder how who and what Wounded Bird Records are and how they ended up with it? I notice they are also the ones that re-released Sandy Stewart's Cat Dancer.

EDIT:

Wikipedia offers the following: Wounded Bird Records is a CD only, re-issue record label, that was founded in 1998 in Guilderland, New York. They re-release lesser known albums from both popular and lesser known artists, including Deborah Harry, Chic, David Blue, Marilyn Martin, Gordon Haskell, Jon Anderson, Adrian Belew, Ellen Foley, Argent, Blood, Sweat & Tears, Sparks and others. The bulk of the Wounded Bird catalogue is licenced from Warner Music Group (including Atlantic Records), but also from Sony BMG.

Also: Wounded Bird Records was formed in 1998 as a label that specializes in the reissue of albums from the 60's, 70's and early 80's on compact disc. All of their releases are properly licensed from the owner of the original masters, in most cases the original record label and sometimes the artists themselves. They strive to reproduce the original album cover artwork, converted to accommodate the CD size format.
