Metamatic Forums John Foxx John Foxx and Louis Gordon drive ep

Yes they were in card sleeves with their individual number printed on the back. I have one numbered, and another with no numbers at all. So they may of made some extra copys afterall, either that or mine missed the printer.

I've never heard it - I was living in another country at the time and never knew about it until I got back to Blighty - looking forward to giving it a test drive!

I've got a 5(?)* track card edition, but missed out on the album length edition, so would love to see some copies turn up on ebay!

(*4-5 track edition...can't remember how many are on it)

Now these ARE rare - can't say I've ever seen one on ebay, though there probably have been some.

Although I've got the 2003 Exotour double CD, I'd still like one of the originals - for the collection and to have the cover artwork in original format!

I wish they'd kept the same sleeve design for that digipack version...

According to Wikipedia, my EP isn’t as rare as the album length edition:

Exotour 97 (1000-copy numbered edition EP from the 1997 UK tour, released 10 October 1997)

Subterranean Omnidelic Exotour (500-copy numbered edition album from the rehearsals of the 1998 UK tour, released 15 April 1998)

Yeah I wished they'd kept the original Foxx art too on the Edsel edition.

I'm guessing everybody on the forum is probably sorted by now, but just in case, here are some more copies of the once rare Drive EP:

Just noticed the seller on Amazon still asking £295 for a used copy of the Drive EP

Hes going for the quick sell.

Its either someone being greedy, or someone that dont really known the Foxx market for rarities. Oddly, it did seem more rare before this recent ebay activity.

Maybe they got the decimal point in the wrong place!

Ordered mine on Tuesday, arrived first thing yesterday! Yowsa!

A bit silly to 'review' a CD almost half a decade after everyone else in the known world seems to have a copy, but just to say that of the previously unheard tracks, 'Your Shadow' was the immediate favourite.

PS - As I wasn't in the UK when it was released can anyone tell me; was the radio edit ever played on the radio?
