Hi, everyone:

First post here. Just wanted to express my thanks for all the fantastic music that everyone's been posting, and try to give something back with some stuff of my own. So here goes...

Ferris Bueller 3-pack -- containing 3 tunes that were in the movie "Ferris Bueller's Day Off":
- Dream Academy - "Please Please Please (Instrumental)"
- The English Beat - "March of the Swivelheads"
- Yello - "Oh Yeah"

Work 3-pack -- 3 songs that have "Work" in the title:
- Front 242 - "Work"
- Kool Moe Dee - "I Go to Work"
- Ministry - "Work for Love (Extended Version)"
http://download.yousendit.com/9F6E5CEBC769759E

A ZIP with an extended mix of "Snobbery & Decay" by ACT -- I've included the full mix, as well as an edit which chops out all the wonky sound bites at the beginning and goes straight to the meat of the tune. It's my own transfer from vinyl -- sounds OK to me, but perhaps not super-end high audiophile quality.

Lastly (whew!), here's "House of Stone" by The Roaring Boys, a song that haunted me from the first time that I heard it on the radio until I found it again online many, many years later.

Thanks again. Hope you enjoy it.

Work for Love extended...
I didn't know it existed. Some other great tunes also.
Jenv, thank you for your "donations" and welcome.
We were all having a discussion about people posting way to many songs that are readily available for purchase. We don't want any trouble. We are basically awaiting Mike P.'s thoughts on the subject.
