it says HAPSCD001 on the 92 happy customers one...not OCH0**LCD like everything else they've released, so it was definitely not technically an Ochre release, but rather the first cd released on Will's 92 happy customers label.....but it definitely does look like an Ochre packing job (coz Ochre does way AWESOME packaging, and i have many many cds that they put out in the early days, so i can sorta tell) ....as opposed to the spiFFing one NOT looking like an Ochre release. :lol: so you probably did get it from Ochre....but i got mine from Will, so i never thought about it. it probably isn't on their website coz it wasn't technically released 'on' their label. ?

actually, it's listed as a 92 happy customers album! ;-)

Ochre Albums
Ochre Europa Albums
92 Happy Customer Albums
Ochre Singles

i'm sure they released it though, as i said, but just not under the Ochre label.

(i didn't see that mail order page.....)

Thanks again Red! Between this and some Googling I made a lot of changes for this entry

It turns out that the spiFFing CD reissue and the original 92 Happy Customers LP have the similar covers. They both say:
Themes for 'GRIND'
but the CD from spiffing has a red line border

The 92 Happy Customers reissue CD says:
Themes for GRIND by Will Sergeant
and has no red line border

The LP and the spiFFIng CD also have the sad face all over it. At least the vinyl I saw for sale did. I don't recall the sad faces on my vinyl but that was a long time ago.

Basically the spiFFing CD is more in line with the original 92 Happy Customers LP release. I would think this would be the other way around.

It's all here
