Swinging Lights - my favorite B-Movie song, even though it sounds as though it was recorded on a crappy 4 track cassette. Of those thousand copies I somehow ended up with 3, would you be interested in one? I should warn you that even though they are all in excellent shape, they are very cheap pressings. (the 7", not the lp)

Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever flipped it over and listened to The Fool.

If you can find somebody with Torchomatic's CD-r collection, it has on it somewhere a copy of Swinging Lights, although the synth line at the beginning is chopped off.

I'd be interested how much that thing is worth as I've been lucky to get my copy at ebay a few years ago for what seemed cheap to me. I've never seen the complete set with the 7" on offer ever since.

Were you after just the 7" or the lp/7". I ask because although I do have 3 copies of The Fool, only 2 of those copies are attached to lp's. (The rogue single was purchased from a vendor in Japan of all places.)

No idea of it's worth...both of mine were purchased as yours was, on eBay. If I recall, about $15.00 for each copy. One didn't even mention the 7" was included, but when I got it, both looked to be unplayed.
