It's not just you, because we keep having to restart the player as well.

Restarting the player brings back audio, but not necessarily for long.

The medley Negativland is having with the curated stream may be better than the originals.

I have to say this is the most beautifully composed cut-up ever (unintentionally & randomly) put together. In fact, it's like listening to a live broadcast of OTE.

The cover art for this was painted by Youngstown, Ohio artist, Chris Yambar. The original art was a 5' x 5' painting - gifted to the band at the Cleveland venue, Peabody's during their tour in '92 or '93'. Chris was an over-the-top elective, prurient-yet-devoutly Christian evangelical dude before he passed a couple of years ago. He was a huge Negativland fan. He was also a writer for the Simpson's Bongo Comics.
