Ian McNabb & the Icicle Works

I have been a fan of the Icicle Works and Ian McNabb since 1983 and am heavily involved in the Ian McNabb CD-Tree which can be accessed at ianmcnabbcdtree@yahoogroups.com . Ian McNabb has a website at www.ianmcnabb.com to which he regularly contributes. There is also a discussion group for fans at ianmcnabb@yahoogroups.com to which Ian has been known to participate at times.
