Wow, thanks for those links, Brian! Both for the interview, which I
hadn't seen before and which is REALLY cool (great job by Art), as
well as Phantom Frank's site.

I don't know how many of you would know this, but all of these songs
(except Pintor)were played live (and some of them even recorded) by
the Treble Spankers! That would indicate that the Phantom Four will
definitely be similar to the Treble Spankers - and that's indeed a
reason for much rejoicing! I've really missed those guys.

I believe that MuSick will be releasing this CD in the US soon, so
you may just want to wait to pick it up at that point.
