Leo Kottke's "Power Failure."

It's an old Procul Harem song. I heard it the other day on Sirius...one of my faves from back in the day, but the album, Chewing Pine, is out of print, just a remastered (read: changed) version available from Amazon. I'd buy the whole CD if I could find an orginal (not remastered) version, but that doesn't seem likely. Does anyone have a copy of the original? There are other great tracks on the disc, but I'm mostly interested in Power Failure. Help!

There are a couple listed on ebay.

I've never bought anything on ebay before so I don't know if it's ok or what.

Good song.

I found it on a couple of music sights that seemed a bit dubious. One called "legalsounds.com" which charges 9¢ per song...but I have to pre-load an account with a minimum of $30. It is available on CD, but only remixed and remastered. I like the original. There are lots of vinyl copies out there, but I don't have a turntable anymore. Thanks! I'm going into Boston this weekend...maybe I'll luck out and one of those big-city stores will have it.
