However, it's some people's favorite Roy Wood record (Ben Vaughn, anyway). ==================================================================== To unsubscribe from Bomp, send an e-mail to majordomo@bolis.com with "unsubscribe bomp" in the message body.

It's a live in the studio recording, made on the 3RRR studios in Melbourne in front of 30 people. It's an official one on their own Crying Sun label, and it's released thru Citadel. There is a special A5 digipack limited edition available via mail order, and now a regular jewel case available in shops. You can get the whiole story about this record on the Divine Rites pages in the Radio Birdman section. You also can hear a special interview made on 3RRR radio with all the Birdmen. It's in real audio files. The new Deniz Tek album will release in the next months on Citadel too. Rob Younger will be in the studio at the end of January for producing 8 Sydney bands for the "Storming the Citadel" project on my own label. Hope it helps. Yeah Hup !

I spent over $100 on an order and the French guy was all pissed off because I didn't know the prices. I asked if he had certain records, he said yes, I said how much, he got mad because I had no catalog in front of me. It's people like him that give the French a bad name. If Norton carried the records that I wanted, I would have gladly given Miriam the money, no questions asked. They like their customers and do anything to keep them. The real kick in the gonads is that Midnight has perhaps the best collection of 60's garage and psychedelic stuff around. Often the prices are really good too. However, if I see it available someplace else, I won't buy it from Midnight. I know it ain't me. Arthur Lee was very nice to me when he autographed his single for me four years ago. I never would have believed he was acid casualty. He was funny and coherent, unlike the French guy at Midnight :) MJ yeeyeemgt@webtv.net ==================================================================== To unsubscribe from Bomp, send an e-mail to majordomo@bolis.com with "unsubscribe bomp" in the message body.

I've been a fairly loyal Midnight customer for years. Why? Because he carries things I couldn't possibly get here in Kansas City (or maybe even in Lawrence). On the other hand, the little things get to me: Fill rates can be terrible. I can order up to a dozen things and receive only four or five. Back ordering usually gets this above half, but most other mail retailers I use fill nearly 100% of the orders. Some of the stuff they don't supply is weird: Untamed Melodies (finally got this locally). Hey Evan, I ordered the Upper Crust from Midnight and they couldn't supply it on backorder even. Couldn't get the Fortune and Maltese LP either. Inconsistent pricing. Just got a new New Christs disc. They billed me $21.99. It was listed in the most recent Goldmine at $19.99. I think that's why they want you to quote them a price--because they've got various prices spread all around their advertising. Staff. I've never dealt with JD directly, but some of the staff are definitely not made for retail. I'll probably stick with Midnight periodically--for a variety of reasons. I've found a few other mail retailers and I'd be happy to share them with other folks if you contact me off list. Likewise, I'm always looking for leads on decent mail retailers--so keep those suggestions coming.

I know that the two major online CD retailers, CDNow and Music Boulevard, are selling the new Crust CD (and the old one, for that matter). Personally, when I mail-order I usually try to support the smaller companies that are more 'garage-friendly,' such as Norton or Vinyl Injections/Stanton Park, but I'm not sure if either of them are stocking the Crust.

Almost all of the songs had the line "my love is stronger than dirt" and something about a white knight on a horse. And Ajax and the Cleaners' (right name?) "Stronger than Dirt" (covered by the Mummies) had the line "who is that man on the horse" a apparent reference to The Detergents teen tragedy classic "Leader of the Laundry mat" (who is that playing that piano...) maybe it's the other way around. Anywho, I'm just curious as to what brand used the logo of the knight on the horse and "stronger that dirt". Does anybody have info on any of these bands. Oh yeah, he also played some stuff by The Scramblers who had an LP called Cycle Psychos on Crown Records. Thanks for any info.

The first Love album has like three "Hey Joe"s on it - Hey, wouldn't that be cool -- a whole album of "Joe"-derived tunes! What did they leave off of Love Story? I know I have a tape of that first LP somewhere...I remember it being a little weak but that could just be the mix or maybe that I heard Forever Changes first and always will judge against that -- hard act to follow! The mono mix of Love Story is much better then the stereo album mix. Bass and drums in the center makes it really rock, although some of Da Capo suffers in mono because it's a little too dense. (If you don't believe what I'm saying about mono, get an amp with a mono switch, put on Beatles For Sale, and flick the switch...not as "limp" as ya thought!)

Mad 3 is definately one of the best instrumental band in the world. They have LP on Time Bomb and 10" on Estrus. Jackie and the Cedricks are pretty cool surf party band. Titans are another great band, imagine Teengenerate meets Raunch Hands. They have new album on Lance Rock. Fifi and Mach 3 from Yamaguchi has nice releases on 1+2 label, and they have great female vocal with the sound of the Ramones. Other bands worth to mention: Phantom Rats, Pebbles, First Alert, Tonight, Gasoline, Antonio 3, Bousou Nezumi, Switch Trout, Gyogun Rend's, etc etc. Ex-Teengenerate members: Fink just starts his new band called the Raydios, and they are going to open for the Oblivians this month. Fifi is in two bands now, one is the Tweezers who has an album out on Time Bomb. The other is called Fire Starter with another ex-Teengenerate Sammy on bass and Kawamoto who is in the Titans. Fire Starter is more like Teengenerate and they play Razor and Vibrators covers on live. Shoe recently joined Supersnazz as their new drummer.

I don't have it, but that probably accounts for the recording quality. I had heard it was a pretty lively performance. "Aloha Steve and Danno" appeared on the overseas version of the Radios Appear LP. "Smith and Wesson Blues" is on the Living Eyes LP. Don't think "Revelation" was released until Ritualism. If you want a hot album, grab the 1995 remix of "Living Eyes." Fantastic production and great songs. It's a little pricey (I paid $22 at Venus), but you'll love it. I think there's a remixed version of Radios Appear as well, which you'd probably like to have. This Saturday night, a great show at Coney Island High in NYC (on St Mark's Place). The Secret Service (going on first - be there by 9:15!)

The B side was a tender sounding ditty called "Gravy Booby Jamm." Undoubtedly a ballad. So I guess the less we know the better. Apparently, Ace Kefford still performs Move tunes up in Birmingham and the crowd gets misty everytime he breaks into "Blackberry Way" (though he had left the Move before they did afforementioned tune). According to the book BEAT MERCHANTS, Ace has had one of the hardest lives in rock 'n' roll (as well as one of the coolest names. I mean ACE KEFFORD...wow!), though the author didn't go into what made it so hard; I think there might be another book coming out of that one. Anyone out there in Bompland know of the sorrows and travails of the Mighty Ace Kefford ex-bass player for the Move?
