Quick plug here... The new issue of Cosmik Debris is online at http://www.cosmik.com, and this month we're featuring a full-length interview with Colin Blunstone of The Zombies. The giveaway (drawing) is a rare sampler from the box set that exists primarily for promoting the set to the media. The CD has hits, rarities, and even interview recordings. Also featured this month are interviews with Ann Wilson of Heart and The Love Mongers and the legendary guitar granny Cordell Jackson. There's also a feature on Board AID 5 for Lifebeat, an article on Ani DiFranco, and our usual slate of reviews and columns, including Timothy Gassen's Psychedelicatessen. Check it out. Thanks. Deej PS - I have to confess, though I've gotten used to interviewing musicians I admire, I was totally blown away to be talking to Colin Blunstone. What a great guy, though. Gotta be one of the nicest in the biz. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- IN THE MARCH COSMIK DEBRIS: Colin Blunstone of THE ZOMBIES, The Love Mongers, and Ani DiFranco.

What's wrong with this picture? This comp includes Casey Jones & The Governors, an English group (led by Liverpool's Brian Cassar from Cass & The Cassanovas), who just made Hamburg their "permanent" home. Yet there seems to be no mention of _the_ pioneer German beat group, the Rattles. The accents were thick, the lyrics garbled in some cases, but the Rattles, at least in the beginning, were pure Merseybeat clones. They did, in the 70s, succumb to the "Krautrock" genre that seems to be so reviled in some circles. Check out "The Rattles -- Twist Im Star-Club" on Repertoire Records.

JJ's worked with Bill -- JJ is the head honcho of touring and Special Events coordinator at Rounder Records, and Upstart Records is one of Rounder's distributed labels. Nick Lowe did an album for Upstart and did a tour with Bill Kirchen (who's on Black Top.) Anyway, we'd love to see it and will definitely check it out -- so please forward the info! JJ will be at SXSW for Rounder, and I'll be there on business as well -- I work at Joyce Linehan Artist Management. The Rasslers are playing, but not performing as of yet.

I think JJ posted something recently about Serge, so I won't elaborate, but we got a video of rare Serge Gainsbourg stuff and we absolutely love it -- he's got this absolute cool about him that's undeniable, and it's no wonder he spent time with Brigitte. For those not familiar, I'm no expert at all, but some of his stuff rocks, some is great pop with a trashy edge, a lot if it is cool jazz -- real cool jazz borderline beatnik style. But if someone can describe it better for Bompers, than please do -- it's stuff to be checked out.

I have her first(?) American release on Polydor and I >quite dig it. It's totally Lenny and totally "Motown-esque" Any more >releases? Has she performed in the US? Vanessa Paradis was one of the most famous singer here in France... she began at the age of 16 in 1987 with an enormous hit called "Jo le Taxi" that stayed at the first place of the national charts during more than 6 months.... her first lp was full of that kind of popy muzac that please kids at the age of 15, and she kept on making the top 5 during months and months with various singles ("Manolo", "Marylin & John", etc...) she finally won a "Victoire de la Musique" one or two years later, and she had the chance to be helped by Serge Gainsbourg a few months before he died...he wrote a complete album for her (lyrics only), and I must admit that this lp must be the best she has ever done (...mostly because of the lyrics, one more time...)...I remember that the promotion of the album at that time was done with a sentence of gainsbourg, which hit the minds : "Paradis, c'est l'enfer..." ("Paradis, it's hell.."), and because of the sulfurous reputation of Gainsbourg that has always been known as being a mix of sexual addicted and play boy (remember his dates with Brigitte Bardot in the 60s, Jane Birkin in the 70s, Bambou - a french top model- in the 80s....),and because he was around 60 years old at that time, and Paradis barely 20...Anyway ! after Gainsbourg died (in 1990), she began to appear dressed like a hippie, and it was the time that Kravitz began to hit the charts here... of course , all that lauuched a new fashion here , based on a Woodstock-revival look, and all the shit that come with that... Lennon and Hendrix were the two new heroes of that wave, of course because of Kravitz ' sound... and a few weeks later, Paradis came back in the charts with an album and a few singles written by Kravitz, completly Motown influenced, but also with a cover of "Take a ride..." of Lou Reed... She toured at that time in Europe, and it was an enormous success.... she was also on the screens, beginning an actress career...after having hit the charts for years, she stopped completly her singer career,and devoted her time to movies...you can see her in various french films, but fortunatly , she has quit the radio airwaves since 2 or 3 years.... You will probably wonder how I am so aware of the career of this lolita whose music has really nothing to do with garage or whatever (even if her last lp was indeed 60s-Kravitz oriented....but Kravitz for me is what I'd call "another aspect of the 60s", if I wanna stay polite)...but I was 14 when she was 15 and I could do nothing else than following her career, her face, her sound being at that time EVERYWHERE on the radios, the streets, the papers, television, etc... even the national radios were doing special shows when she was about to issue an album....impossible to escape from Paradis at that time, except if living like an ermit.... but I must admit too that she was the cause of many of my first hard-ons (after my Kim Wild time) when I was a kid... that must explain this... sylvain (who never suspected he could have one day the opportunity to talk about the early days of his sexual life on the Bomp list) SWITZERLAND ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 07 Mar 1998 08:06:13 -0500 From: JJ and Jen Rassler Subject: French Rock Yup, we're fans of French rock.

(French not meaning from France but In French....) uh, sure, yeah. i have a few good comps of Quebecois and French rock. "rumble" is a great one covering Quebecois "ye-ye" groups of the 60s like Les Miserables, Les Lutins, Les Loups Blancs. Put out by some folks in Montreal a few years back. and the recently-issued "Ils sont fous ces Gaulois" has a few good tracks on it, too. Probably does help if you understand a bit of french, though. Saw a band called Platon et Les Caves a few years back (in me old home town of Ottawa) who were hilarious, doing french-ified versions of old R&R standards, introducing them all in English ("This next song is in French, ze language of LUV")... Outside of the garagerock vein, I've gotten kicks from things like Les Colocs from Quebec ("Bon Yeu donne-moi un Job") and Mano Negra from France / Spain. any other suggestions? oh, and JJ and Jen Rassler mentioned the Dogmatics in passing. damn, there was a band. never did see them (I don't think they ever made it to Canada), but have damn near worn those two albums out over the years. paul ------------------------------ Date: 7 Mar 98 15:39:20 -0500 From: "Blair" Subject: Re: SCOTS tour dates for March, April and May >>SAT 5/9 NEW YORK, NY Delancey St. Theatre > >Delancey St. Theatre?

Under live music venues, they talked about this place which should be opening this Spring. Supposed to be fairly large. I think it's down around Delancey and the Bowery.
