This and the Iron Butterfly guy are two of the strangest stories in RnR history. From what I have heard though, teh river that they think he may have went into is notorious for taking people and never giving them back, in any shape. You kids in the UK can tell us what you know about that one.
Maybe the state of the Preachers now is to suck soooooooo bad that it will make him come out of hiding to stop them from fucking up the band he helped to create!
For the record, I am not too sure which one I would take of those two albums. I think I would go with "Generation" for the catchy, hooky side. But if I wanted some cool writing, I would take "Gold". But if I could take any of 'em, I would take the "Stay Beautiful" EP first, then "The Holy Bible", and probably be doen with them from there. Oh, but one would have to get a bonus track of their version of "Suicide Is Painless".
The River Severn is big by our standards, but nothing compared to yours (Mississippi, etc), but I guess finding anything in there is gonna be down to luck.
Where he supposedly jumped is pretty close to the ocean, isn't it? If he jumped, he probably would never be found.
If he did jump, then the mouth of the river does flow out into the Bristol Channel, then into the Atlantic. So there is that possibility of being washed away, or stuck in the mud on the bottom, like these bones were.
