I have a 3-LP box set of some of their early works. Their drummer, Nico McBrain became the longtime drummer for Iron Maiden. They did do an English version of Ride On from AC/DC. I'm not an expert in French, but by looking at the lyrics, they were a political band as well.

In the event that you aren't...well, when my JVC turntable decided to flake out on me as I was trying to install a new cartridge recently, I went turntable shopping and found a perfectly decent Sony turntable at the Sony store in midtown Manhattan for $250 or so. Model number PS-LX300H. Works well, sounds great, has those magical dots alongside the platter that stand still when it's in rotation. It suits me fine. There was a "Sixties" antiques show at the 25th Street armory this weekend. I went just to feast my eyes on all the crap--I'm hardly the type who can afford $300 for a "Supremes White Bread" wrapper. Along with the row of '60s TV celebrities sitting around for autographs and the dulcet tunes of musical guest Paul Kantner (oy), there were some actual non-tacky, truly beautiful items and events: a screening of "Tonite Let's All Make Love in London," and ode to the swinging city circa early '67; gorgeous and bizarre furniture, like those egg chairs, futuristic Saarinen and Eames designs, a coffee table with female legs holding it up, etc.'; row upon row of tv tie-in kitsch and toys from the era; op art curtains; and I could go on and on, but the most outstanding item to my eyes was a hi-fi console made to look like a fireplace and mantel, replete with a working electric "fire." There were several sit-down stereo consoles that looked stolen from the set of "2001," and one vendor had a womb-like easy chair with built-in speakers. Quite a few had those round plastic ball radio/8-track players. Ah...if only our contemporary industrial designers could muster up such taste. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 8 Mar 1998 14:08:56 -0500 (EST) From: DJJimmyBee@aol.com Subject: Re: Re: Serge G. was Re: Paradis I have to say that lounge/easy can get you to move in a new way...at least it happened that way to me!

I remember one of his hits , around 1986, that was called "Love on the Beat", which made the top 5 here during weeks... It's in that kind of situation that you see that France is far from being a puritain land...some of the lyrics were : "Des trois orifices que les Dieux t'ont donné J'ai choisi le moins lisse pour m'abandonner" which means " Among the 3 holes that the Gods gave you, I've choosen the less smooth to come"... All the song is full of that poetry, and during all the song you can hear Bambou (Gainsbourg's wife), crying, screaming, yelling, just as if she was rapped by an entire army... I remember too this beautiful sunday afternoon, when my parents , my little sister and I were driving to my grandparents, and the car radio was on... the moment came when of course, "Love on the Beat" was played...my parents were cool, but I remember that they were silenciously expecting the moment when one of these embarrasing questions would come from the kids, especially from my sister who was 10 years old at that time.. and after 1 minute of Bambou's screams, bingo " Why do the woman cries like that ?" asked my sister......."Well.......she must be constipated" replied my father...and that was all for this time...Gainsbourg made much more for the sexual education of french kids than shool ever did...and what was cool with him was that you could have all the details you never dared to ask to your parents or your teacher... But he was not the only guy of that sort in the 80s in France....I remember having discovered loads of things listening to the radio when I was 11-12 years old (lesbianism with "Maman a tort" by Mylene Farmer -1984, SM with "Etienne"-don't remember who sung that, transvestism with "Troisieme sex" (3th sex) by Indochine..., etc, etc....and all made the top 3 !) sylvain SWITZERLAND ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 8 Mar 1998 11:40:39 -0800 (PST) From: Greg Shaw Subject: Chat room >>It's confusing to me too.

For instance, 11 PM EST would probably be non-peak time across the country and everyone should be done with work or school etc. You could also pick an earlier time for weekends, or any kind of schedule the most active members (I have a feeling there's only a dozen or two of these anway) wants to agree on.
