This guy's channeling Marc Almond. Maybe that's why it's so familiar. God, please someone figure it out!!!!

Hi again,

This is "The Drowning Man" By The Hollow Men,
Same Band who did "White Train"

Never released on cd.

Was only released on a 12" in 1987 in the UK- and it is very rare.

Cheers,

Paul

Is this the same Hollow Men who recorded _Cresta_? I remember them as second-tier Madchester dropouts. If it's the same band, they peaked early . . .

Hi:

You can find this on the 12" that Gazebo listed above, but it is a very rare record, or you can look for the lp that it was originally on titled "The Man who would be King". Unfortunately, it is even rarer than the 12", or you can e-mail me and I'l
