Ok guys, maybe it isn't out yet, but I just got a copy of GROOVE COLLECTIVE
playing "I want you (She's so heavy)" on a GRP compilation of beatles
covers by GRP artists. IT KICKS and has been on heavy rotation on my
turntables recently.

However one warning... the GC song is the ONLY good song on the comp
(unfortunatlely most of GRP's artists have gone cheezy), so if you DO buy
it, you'll be buying a double LP for only one song (something a DJ might do
but a normal fan might pass up)

Peace,
