For those who are interested, its pretty tough to get CDs of the original <i>No Reservations<\/i> anywhere at a decent price &#8211; I had seen a copy in Landmark, Chennai for 525 INR, and some copies at secondspin.com for 3.99$. But I am off secondspin for now, so this album is the only sensible way to go. It collects the representative hits of Apache Indian, the album hits Chok There&#8217;, &#8216;Boom Shaka-Lak&#8217;, &#8216;Arranged Marriage&#8217;, the collaborations &#8216;No Problem&#8217; and &#8216;Yeh Ladka Hai Allah&#8217;, from Asha Bhosle&#8217;s <i>Rahul and I<\/i>. And it&#8217;s only 125 INR, and I was megapissed when this went off the market about a month after it came out sometime in 2005 &#8211; just after I had made up my mind to buy a copy. So, hoo-ah!<\/p>\n<p>Top Shelf comics is celebrating its fifth anniversary with a major, MAJOR sale. There is a 3$ sale for books like Jose Villarubia\/Alan Moore&#8217;s <i>The Mirror of Love<\/i> ( which retails for 20$), Alex Robinson&#8217;s <i>Tricked<\/i> ( ditto), the <i>Blankets<\/i> soundtrack ( retail price 15$), all the volumes of <i>Bughouse<\/i>, which selll for 15$ each. GODDAMNIT! It&#8217;s a bad, bad time to be an obsessed collector.<\/p>\n<p>And my computer at home is humped. Totally. I think the power supply&#8217;s gone bust.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just when the music of Sivaji: The Boss was on the verge of taking over my life, I found The Best of Apache Indian at Music World today.
