The second and third, quite valued and highly pirated, are, at this time, unavailable.

But what's money among friends? I'll deliver my personal copies to you by hand in
exchange for a few personal favours. (While I'd love to exchange them for the barest
scrap of your artwork; I know that these tawdry baubles are not worth the slightest
taste of it.)
Still... (from my past dealings with artists) I know that while they they set a high
value upon their art (usually many times its worth), they'll pretty much hand out
their personal favours for a beer (not that I'd imply any such thing of you personally).
So, have we got a deal?
As sincere as always,

"Wooly Bully" does "The Watusi".
NetFlicks don't got shit! One of their new movies was filmed in 1983, released on DVD in 2002, and generally is characterized by a poor plot and even poorer acting. The only good thing about it (if you can even call it that) is that you feel as though you just stumbled onto the stage of the Bangles or maybe into Madonna's first film. If you want to watch any good movies you might as well just buy them. Of course "Addy does Billy" (I heard it was "Addy gone an' done Billy") was released straight to video, VCR, not DVD as it was already long out of date before it's time. As I am on good terms with the distribution company that has it, I have four copies, 3 VCR's and 1 on Beta Max. Maybe I'll sell them for the right price, but not for beers.

How long after picking up the brush, the first masterpiece?
The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.

I still have my 8 tracks. Sadly, I seemed to be heavily into Donny and Marie.

Usually you'd have to cut out a few feet of tape and splice it back together.
The decks were crappy pieces of junk, but I loved them. I remember destroyed
cartridges (mostly from user anger, but occasionally girl-friend) strewn along the
shoulders of the highway, their 185* feet of tape flapping in the gusts of wind
from passing cars.
And I remember stuffing a cart of the Moody Blues' Days of Future Passed into the
8-track deck duct-taped to the top of my dashboard, dropping acid, and driving a few
hundred miles somewhere or other listening to it over and over. There was this
technicolor movie on the screen in front of me and I was amazed that I could
telepathically make it pan left and right.
*The standard was 185 feet (my electronic-technician soul leaks through), but the long-plays had more (and got snarled much more often)
While the Days of Future Passed was on the 8, the Jefferson Airplane albums 2-5 not 1,
Muddy Waters, Country Joe and the Fish, Grateful Dead, Jimi Hendrix, Lightnin' Hopkins,
et al were on 1/4" reel. I finally rigged up an inverter (12vdc to 117ac) and started using 1/4"
on the road. But 8 was cool..

That is sad. Tragic.
(Though, from what I've heard recently, your taste has risen a couple levels above mine, or, wait...
maybe it's those young'uns of yours, maybe they got you some musical religion, god of jazz, that sort.)

(Can't have it both ways; and, as we both know, young'uns are always idiots.)

P.S. My wife majored in philosophy. THAT and a can of beans will get you $26,000 in debt.
(Only $26,000? Yeah, those were the good old days.)
