There was that period of several years in the mid 90s when their entire pre-DGC catalog was out of print. I remember having to wait for the reissues to get Evol and CIS on CD. Even with that, those numbers still seem low.
They also seem low because in the early 90s you could walk into any old Sam Goody or other mall-based music store and find all the 80s releases. SST must have had good distro.
I find it hard to believe that I'm one of only 4100 people that owns the first EP, or one of the 1000 to own Starpower.
