Hi,

Last week I found the _Long Secret_ compilation CD on Harriet in my local

give a good description so I won't.

But so far, the song on it by the Australian band _The Cat's Miauw_ struck
me completely. Is there anyone who knows more about them? Do other tracks
of them exist? If so, on what label? (Summershine I would expect).


Thanks,

I was listening to "Sue" the other day and crying (virtually) into my
cup of tea at the thought that the heavenly Chorus might never do
anything ever again. Mind you, I don't know anything about what they
are doing now, but after the three laughable singles from "Ray" ("hey!
let's get a ragga toaster on "Walking on Air"! Yeah! That's bound to
bring in the sales!"), and after the yawn (pleasant yawn, but a yawn
nonetheless) that was "Ray" (and the baby album), I'm not sure that I
want more albums from them.

On the other hand, a couple of the b-sides from the afore mentioned
singles were delightful. So.

Well, me working for a smaller record label must be able to answer this
question...

It's just a question of piles of mail and shortage on staff. At our
PIAS-office the promotion dept. works long days (often 10-11 h/day)
just to do promotion activities for magazines, radio and TV.
Above that we often have to visit the concerts, so some evenings are
working-hours.

You must understand fanmail and questions by individual persons are
not priority #1 (probably not even #19).

It is just we do recognize the importance of the Internet, so I do
have a couple of hours per week to do mails and WWW.

The second is right. It was first on Setanta. Then Ivo did a remix and
Chriss Bigg a new sleeve for 4AD (USA). The european edition is now
also the remixed version (in the 4ad-sleeve, but with 4AD replaced by
Setanta). The original version came in a Digipack sleeve.

This can't be a 4AD or PIAS (4AD's distributor in Holland) release. Although

The actual catalogue number is BAD 5003 CDK !! It's a Euro CD in a UK made
digipak (King-style design).
Note that 5003 is the 'Now They'll Sleep' EP. Why did 4AD use this number
again? And what's CDK?

Let's hope they do this in more of an old-Seefeel style; given their last few
releases one would expect the results to consist of nothing but the "Treasure"
drum tracks with some distortion and echo, plus one-second snippets of Liz's
voice once in a while. (OK, I like "Succour", but I wouldn't want a remix of
"Treasure" to sound anything like that.)

somebody wrote:

It's more complicated than that. If you have a trademark on a word, and you
let somebody else use that word not in connection with your product, without
stopping them or filing a lawsuit, you can lose your trademark since it will
be determined by the courts that the word has fallen into generic usage. This
has happened to many now-generic words that were once valuable trademarks
(can't remember any at the moment) and still keeps the lawyers for Kleenex and
Xerox awake at night.
(Speaking of old jazz record labels, I recommend the Blue Note CD sampler that
Starbucks is selling for $10 to promote their new Blue Note blend. It's got
some really tasty tracks by Coltrane, Monk, Billie Holliday et al; plus "Song
For My Father", which Steely Dan copped as the riff to "Rikki Don't Lose That
Number", and which Meat Beat Manifesto sampled heavily on one of the tracks on
"100%".)

This CD has turned up at the local Blockbuster Music, of all places.
Although it does have the 4AD logo, it does appear to be a boot.  It was

Paul definitely was, if not Al. Paul sings on a couple of tracks on their
first record, _Gub._

Actually, I swore for awhile that I saw the 4AD logo on the Revolting Cocks
last release...

Uh...yeah, they were...  Paul Barker plays all over the first Pigface album
and most of who played on the first album were part of the Ministry touring
band at that time...supposedly Martin Atkins had the tact to approach
everyone, including Al, to solicit their input into this project.  Al was
the only one who turned down the offer, but gave his blessing to Martin for
stealing his entire band for his own project.

I'd like to take this opportunity to invite you up to Calgary for our
first ever Independent Music and Arts Festival - Hoopla!
It all started when i dreamed of live music on asphalt, I mentioned this
dream to some people who mentioned it to some people who mentioned it to
me and voi-la Hoopla was born.  On June 3rd on two stages 15 bands will
play all afternoon and then at 7pm the street dance will begin and three
other bands will perform.  As well, there will be street performers and
buskers, poetry slams and well... it's going to be huge.  So, you

   Thank you all for responding to my question about the box
set. I am not missing anything besides Tiny Dynamite. I am VERY
upset. Someone who lost their copy must have stolen it from me.
I think I'll steal it back! haha!
