Was cleaning out my desk today and found this. Maybe someone here will dig it.

I love that song, and your instrumental version is so cool. Keep cleaning out that desk, and dig deep--maybe you will find a few more things. You wouldn't happen to have that zip file around still, would you? I forgot to save it off my old computer.

Really digging the band and the few bits i've been able to listen to on the interweb.
Is there any album available somewhere ?

Bill Aqua made their unfinished and unreleased album "Aquanauts Can't Swim" available a few years ago as a free download. Fingers crossed, I still have it on an old computer, and I'm checking into it. If it works out maybe I can send it to you...
