Yes, it's definitely available.  The Aerovons album is a solid '60s album
with several songs that are extremely influenced by The Beatles and an
opening cut, "World Of You", which is absolutely gorgeous.  I fear, like it
was for The Billy Nicholls 'Would You Believe' disc after it was heartily
hailed as the second coming of Pet Sounds, The Aerovons 'Resurrection' isn't
going to live up to the hype and suffer greatly from the inevitable Beatle
comparisons.  Hopefully people who buy it can divorce themselves from the
Abbey Road Studios or Beatle hoopla surrounding it, and view it as the good
album it is.

Worth $22?  That's a tough call, but it's a good disc.  I'll be co-writing a
piece on The Aerovons for Goldmine, but the MOJO article has quite a bit of
info already.
