From what I understand, In The Red, who handled Hello Young Lovers, should be releasing Exotic Creatures. The head of In The Red records was apparently at some of the shows.
Since the album has not come out in the U.S., I would think doing U.S. press wouldn't mean much. It would be better to wait for the album to come out here.

> >> Hey UK fella's and ladies...
> >> ...got a few questions for you:
> >> I was wondering if you had heard anything about the new Sparks record "Exotic Creatures Of The Deep" being played on the radio more than before, or, perhaps about back catalogue sales being re-energized. Maybe "Kimono My House" came back on the charts recently? Is the latest cd charting now, I wonder?
