"Item ID:  Eurostar 398 20062         Artist:  Wakhevitch, Igor/Salvador
Dali    Title:  Etre Dieu    Price:  $50.00    3 x CD box set: Due to it's
large size & weight, this is for sale in the USA only! ''An early associate
of the Soft Machine & Terry Riley, [Wakhevitch's  music] contains many
creative elements - spacial electronics, neo-chamber themes, exotic ethnic
influences & much more...''-Archie Patterson. This is ''an opera poem'' by
Dali, with music by Igor , & performed by various speakers/singers, an
orchestra & a rock band (including Michel Ripoche-violin, Didier Batard-bass
& François Auger-drums). This insanely extravagant package features a lush
velvet outer box, a HUGE libretto & another lush velvet inner box. The usual
wholesale cost of this is $180.00, so this is quite a deal."
