I got behind with reading the digests and its taken me a looooooog time to catch up. A lot of us NYC area bompsters got to see the Rod & Colin show at the Village Underground last May. I saw two of the shows and of course would have liked to have heard what an actually Zombie reunion would have sounded like. (I stood behind Chris White the second night...and heard that everyone was there for the final show...but just not unstage). I recently picked up Colin Blunstone's "Greatest Hits" CD on Mystic Records out of the UK. It's the best of his catalog NEWLY recorded! So on here is "Tell Her No", "She's Not There" and "Time Of The Season" and he's backed by Chris White, Hugh Grundy, Rod Argent, and John Verrity. Recorded in 1998 I believe. All good versions...I highly recommend it. www.mysticrecords.co.uk Kevin ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 8 Feb 2002 18:48:49 -0500 From: "Jeff Lemlich" Subject: Lucia Pamela is 97 years old!

Glad that Bill Kelly is playing the new one on his "Teenage Wasteland" show. I've been featuring tracks from "Musique Automatique" on my show recently, too. The lastest one has more has more Kraut-synth elements (guess that's Breznel), then usual for them. There's also a great cover of "(Route) Nationale 7" which was covered by the Belgium band The Honeymoon Killers back in 1982! Got to meet and talk to Francoise Cactus at a Stereo Total show from about a year ago and she indeed is a total sweetie. The reason that you might not hear Stereo Total much on even your local college music stations is because Bobsled Records doesn't believe in "servicing" college radio stations. Our music director paid for our copy of "M.A.". Recommended are "My Melody" and their self-titled CD as well.

It's more raw for them than they did when they started putting records out from 1967 on to now. I was wondering if there's a compilation CD out there that just focus on the Syd Barrett era Pink Floyd (1965-1968)? >> you can't lose with the "magnesium proverbs" boot, which collects early demos, the classic singles, and some live & BBC stuff, though this boot is more of a general syd overview, and doesn't specifically focus on the floyd years. i think probably your best bet, material and cost-wise, is to check out the "laughing madcaps" yahoo group and get in on the "have you got it yet" CDR ring - this is a (so far) 4 disc collection of all things syd (floyd & solo), comprising even more demos, acetates, alt mixes, alt edits, BBC recordings, two complete live shows with syd, and a few unreleased tracks. if you score this (it's a free thing, for trade only), "piper," "saucerful of secrets" and the (i think this is still in print - should be available as an import at better record stores) the UK "early singles" comp -which contains the a's & b's of all barrett-era singles, you'll pretty much have all that's currently available, commercially & booted. from the evidence in david parker's recent "random precision" syd sessionography, though - this stuff is more or less the tip of the hallucinogenic iceberg, as there appears to be quite a bit of unreleased syd music in the EMI archives. hopefully somebody will someday bitch-slap some sense upside waters' & gilmour's respective heads and get this stuff released. rob ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 8 Feb 2002 19:03:15 EST From: DJKevin891@aol.com Subject: Re: Fire Dept.

I'd start with zydeco king Clifton Chenier (especially his Specialty stuff, but his things on Arhoolie are superior as well), along with the Cajun artists on the Swallow label.

Plus, with the 25-50-100 watt selector switch, you don't have to go yankin' power tubes out of it to get a lower output level! Tim P.S. If anybody wants to know what other players are saying about any specific model of amp, guitar, or effects pedal, go to www.harmonycentral.com - they have a huge database of user reviews. It's a good place to find out what a piece of equipment is REALLY like (and how much it should cost) before you buy it. __________________________________________________ ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 8 Feb 2002 20:07:32 -0800 (PST) From: Jason Mata Subject: Re: looking to relocate and ned advice.
