Graduate

from an article in Rolling Stone:

"3. Tears for Fears
Before Curt Smith and Roland Orzabal hit the big time, they had another band called Graduate — successful nowhere except Spain, where they hit Number One with the immortal single "Elvis Should Play Ska.""

Is this available? Does anyone have it to share?

The download link there seems to be working. $122 dollars is ridiculous, though, especially for a cd. It always bugs me when people jack up the prices like that...

Schwenko, I have it and already uploaded it to sendspace. Went to post the link and saw that cautiouslip beat me to it. If that blog link doesn't work, just let me know and I'll get it to you.
