I saw some kind of compilation today titled _The Arbitrary Meaning
Of Nature_ that included something by Dead His Name Is Alive with
an acknowledgement to 4AD. Does anyone know what this comp is like?
It was limited (ooooo, a collector's item!), number 249/1000. Thanks.

hey everyone!
does liz have soul???? i think she does, i think she has a lot
of soul! since you saw her at the fcc tour and so did i, i really thought
she put a lot of herself into her singing. isn't that what kinda defines
soul in a singer, if they put a lot of him/herself into the music and the
songs? liz may not be mariah carey or aretha franklin but she is
elizabeth fraser.
(in the song "summerblink", liz says "i'm doing a fine job"...and
i really think she is!)
laters,

Its soul alright....either that or a new vocal coach.
I heard a tape of CT playing at the Universal Amphitheatre in Los Angeles
on the FCC tour....during "Pitch the Baby" she kept making this funky
"AHHH-OHHH-AHHH" noise in between the verses.......

we just went over this a few days ago, but here it is again:
this is an experimental/noise music compilation. in no way is it
a 'thislisty' sort of release. the princess dragon-mom & dead hnia
tracks are no more than a couple minutes each...pd-m being a
lovely pycho noise jam that i am particularly fond of {'theme for
food'} and the dhnia track being a full-on wall of noise sludge {'do
you want to have trouble?'}. there are some exceptionally good tracks
on the comp...illusion of safety's contribution is quite nice, and i
really dig randy grief's piece, which sort of sounds like a lisa
gerrard sample from 'the host of seraphim' but cut off and looped
in two keys. it's a nice comp. for a first release from isomorphic
records...

Mail service is spotty at my receiver, plus I am digested. I *did*
see the info you referred to, but only after sending my note.
Thanks for the info--it was kind of you to repeat it for me. Perhaps
recaps could be sent as private email (or not at all--I don't whine
if I don't get an answer) so as not to annoy the rest of the list?
(And just to head off those who might suggest that this response
should have been private, I deliberately sent it to the list so
that others might see/consider the topic of recaps and private
responses.)

her singing always reminds me of Vocalese which is is sorta like scat except
the singer tries to sing like a BeBop Horn.......very all over the place ,
"playing" the voice like a instrument.......very JazzY!
Lambert Henndricks and Ross a trio which is considered to be the best of
this style is worth checking out for an example ...
Soul ? oh yeah ....... she aint Ella but Ella aint Liz, honey!

well...what's the fun in that? :) i like annoying the easily
annoyable... since it's just a reiteration of musical content,
there's no superharm done.

i was sifting thru eyesore and realized that there are a lot of
promo videos out that never made it to the 4ad video collections..
did the list ever compile the obscure videos on a tape...much
like the rare tape chains that have been passed around? if not,
we should have... i'll never see 'a loon' on mtv.... :(

I know that this isn't list related but it is the only way I can
contact so many people at once. Here Go's. . . .
Does anybody remember a documentary that aired on HBO in the
early eighties about the Coconut Grove Fire? Dick Cavet narrated? If anyone
has a copy of it or just knows about it please write.
