I've been buying back-catalog stuff myself, but I gotta agree w/ SoL...

Volume 4 rocks!!
And, lucky me!! My daddy coughed up the bucks for me to see the Joe Jackson Band LIVE at the Showbox Theatre in Seattle in August!!

Many Thanks to sp00ky girlfriend, who provided the advanced "backdoor" ticket info!!

:P

Supergrass- Life on Other Planets is an amazing album, and I believe it was issued in 2003.
