The Aural Retentive 
I have a question abott queens gatefold of news of the world..is that the original coloring? I’m so confused, everytime I look. Up this pic on google it all looks different..did I finally find a pix of it with genuine color?? Thanks!!
Well, my copy was purchsed new back in the day, so I believe this is the original coloring, but, there are other versions. I’ve seen that they released a different cover in Korea. Maybe it was a little too Godzilla-esque.
Thanks..I really like the works of the sci fi artist who drew the painting Frank Kelly Frea. I have seen the Korean version honestly made it look a little rougher than original I think. The one you have seems to have a softer look to it.and most of the ones I’ve looked at do have a softer look so I’m guessing that’s original. I’m assuming you’re from the states?
Yep. Wisconsin.
Hey ! You still into vinnylz ? I have some Ravi lps with your name on em .
Helmet Diggy!? That you? How’s it going! Yeah I’m still into vinyl.
Oops. Meant to add more. I’ve culled the overall collection a bit, but all Ravi stayed. Love to play him while working. Keeps the rage at bay. Lol. You doing any videos? Great to hear from ya!
Hey Mike , just remembered I sent this , thought I would get a notification if you responded but I didn’t get anything so I figured I would follow up.
I think I’ll make a video every once in a while but then the feeling passes .
Miss seeing your vids , good times .
I just started alphabetizing a few weeks ago and what a complete nightmare .
I gotta be honest I didn’t enjoy one aspect of it and I kinda thought I would .
I’m about 3/4s of the way through , maybe less but I came across some Ravi stuff that I planned on sending out to you a long time ago .
Anything else you looking for ?
Shoot me an email with your address and I’ll send some vinnylz yer way.
Here’s my email in case you don’t have it anymore .
Take care
