> never heard of the Nightwinds thing.  care to elaborate? 

It was a progressive rock recording that Dee and Terry produced. Klaatu
and Francis M. (Frank) Davies are thanked in the credits.  It didn't
have any Klaatu members playing on it, and doesn't sound like Klaatu.

Nightwinds was made up of:
Sandy Singers: Lead Vocals, Background Vocals, Acoustic 12 String
Guitar.

Mike Gingrich: 5/4 String Bass, Bass Pedals, 12 String Acoustic Guitar,
Recorder, Background Vocals

Gerald O'Brien: Mellotron, Prophet V, ARP Pro Soloist, Hammond T-100
Organ, Clavinet, Celeste, Yamaha CD-80, Roland String Ensemble, Maxikorg

Terry O'Brien: 6/12 String Electric & Acoustic Guitars

Mike Phelan: Drums, Assorted Percussion


> i have the Rational Youth album

Which one?  Dee produced Heredity, and contributed heavily to many of
the songs on the LP.  He also did some remixes that appeared on 12"
singles, most of which can be found on the CD "All Our Saturdays".

Care to share which store that might have been?

well.

Which single do you have?  What's your opinion of it?  I really enjoy
the McManus tracks and look forward to receiving my copy of the full CD.
