I remeber in the day when these albums were new that their distribution 
stateside was tough.  Neither one had any significant North American 
distribution.  I remember getting  a lot of it through mail order.  I knoe 
for a while there was reluctnace to distribute PTV because of their nature.  
Whether that was self impossed or actual I cannot say (sometimes pTv hyped 
up their own hype).
