Crawf says:

TYPO! "Shout" in the headline. Also "Years of Refusal" with no "s" at the end in your copy.

Also - how come you guys don't do a top-seller list at Black & Read? That's a much better record shop in my opinion.

Thanks for the heads-up, Crawf. We'll see if we can get Black & Read added, as well. Thanks for reading.
