prices are spur of the moment; if there is anything you think i'm asking
too much for or would be willing to purchase if it were a few dollars less,
tell me so. (i reserve the right to decline, but considering my current
situation, anything is possible.)
things i haven't listened to enough yet but will part with if the price is
right, inquire further if interested:
(all vinyl)
Biosphere - Patashnik (R&S)
Sun Electric - Kitchen (R&S; limited edition with bonus 12")
4Voice - "Eternal Spirit" (FAX)
4Voice - "Fairlight" (FAX)
Escape - "Escape to Polaris" (FAX)
also, i shouldn't do this, but i *am* looking for the following fax cds:
organic cloud (giving tetsu one last chance ;))
IF
dreamfish
IF2
outland
so if any of you out there are willing to part with those for some of what
i have for sale, get in touch. the cd's are in order of interest.
run $2-3 for a cd providing i can dig up a used mailer, $.50 more for a new
mailer, and $3-4 for rekkids, including mailer. this also depends on what
you want, and if you want to take a bunch of this stuff off my hands, i'll
pay for postage and throw in a few empty cd or cassette cases of a bunch i
found at home (which also means that any cd currently in a beat-up case
will get a new one before it goes bye-bye.)
i reserve the right to hold onto something if i don't think i'm getting a
fair price for it. y'all can whine and bitch about that, sok. i'm a greedy
toe-sucking capitalist pig, snort snort, who happens to keep holding on to
music
she really doesn't need.
i will accept bids well through next week, until about the 8-10th i imagine.
thanks in advance, and let's keep the responses to private email please,
.joanna.

*sigh* I knew you were going to say that. :(
I distinguish between reactions and judgements as two subjective types of
responses. Subjective because none of us are gods who can write our
notions in stone and command them to be fact. But judgements are based on
aesthetic values which the observer believes (rightly or not) to be
grounded in objective criteria. His view of these criteria is subjective
only in that he may be in error. By contrast, a reaction is thoughtless.
Yes, I do think that thoughtless reaction is the purpose of music in the
first place, but if the discussion is to go beyond favorites lists, one
can't rely entirely on those, and I think a topic such as the current one
(which I had the good sense to call a flame war before its time, how
about that?) is a perfectly proper place for judgements. Elaun seemed to
have made one, and I was honestly interested in his reasoning because I
was under the impression that there was reason involved. (I do not mean
that facetiously.) If he had just said "Insides, yuck" (as in the case of
my much-flamed response to a certain fondly remembered Sonic Youth thread
a long time ago on a listserver far far away) or even "Belly are crap," I
might have responded on a more trivial level, but I didn't know at the
time that I was supposed to.
Basically, I like stupid fine, but warn me first. :)

Well, I've had my copy a few days now.
Am I the only person to enjoy and appreciate this FREE offering from 4ad.
Some of my thoughts.
Scheer - I liked the demo single and thought they might sound a bit
better with some decent production. But really, the guitar sounds like a
cheap Gibson copy played through a cheap distortion pedal into a car stereo.
I suggest accidently forget to record the lead guitar on the album. The
girl sounds nice - the nearest I have got to placing the voice is
Deliscious Monster.
Tarnation - split up already but I think they sounded like Nick
Cave/Tindersticks with a female singer.
Air Miami - The New Pixies ? looking foward to the new album.
Kim and the amps - more like 4-track Sonic Youth.
Lisa Gerrard - very moving track. On the basis of this I might be
convinced to buy the album.
Belly - always going to be brilliant.
Even Kendra Smtih sounded good on this cd.
Finally, and the pick of the bunch. - Mojave.
Never could get into Pygmalion -but this is -just gorgeous. I hope the
rest of the album will be this good. If it was a cloud it would be one
those big fluffy ones.
Found an Xmal Deutschland peel sessions. Anyone want a track listing.
Also, the new Sarah records compilation, just out, is well worth a listen.

hey everyone!
i just picked up a promo copy of air miami's "me me me" today. i
listened to this 38 minute cd around 3 times now and it gets better with
each listen. i'm not really familiar with material by unrest except for
the songs, "isabel" and "cath carroll". if you like those 2 songs, i'm
sure you'll like this guy fixsen produced/engineered album. it's catchy
from the start. i was hoping the songs wouldn't sound like "pucker" from
the all virgos are mad cd but i really like this album. here's the track
1.i hate milk
2.world cup fever
3.seabird
4.special angel
5.afternoon train
6.dolphin expressway
7.sweet as a candybar
8.you sweet little heartbreaker
9.neely
10.bubble shield
11.the event horizon
12.definitely beachy
13.reprise
i thought "airplane rider" was going to be on this album! oh well...
a few more questions for you:
1. what does the new medicine sound like? it's called "her highness"
right? i read from you all that it's a lot weaker but do they sound
different from sfsl and the buried life?
2. what does flying saucer attack sound like?
that's about it...oh for those of you who want to know about this air
miami cd, it's the usual orange cd...the insert is dark sky blue, almost
close to the purple color from the liquorice (listening cap promo) insert
with a drawing of an airplane. the catalog number is: 2-46000-A
laters!
p.s. kelli-jeanne: thanks for the esp summer tape....i just got it
today!

My personal feelings from what I've heard of the two versions are that the
4AD version is MUCH better. From the mouths of Lisa Germano fans, I've been
told that: Capitol mixed the album THEIR way, which really made not a bit of
how to market her music. When 4AD expressed an interest in her, Capitol was
apparently more than willing... Supposedly LG supervised the 4AD remix and
did it HER way... I've heard that the Capitol release is out of print, but a
friend of mine just recently picked it up new in New Orleans--perhaps there
are a lot of new copies still floating around out there?

NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! It's an ok list, but half of the content is things like:
"The first time I heard MBV, I shit golden eggs for a week." MBV is the
band for me. . .(last sentance should be read aloud in a mindless droning
voice.) The rest of it is ok, though.
I've only heard two Swallow songs, but I like their sound. Could someone
send me a bio, or even just a little info. They sounded like a cross
between Curve and MBV to me, only better. . .

eric

close but no cigar. stereolab compilation is out (at least here in
england) on the 4th (a monday, next monday, woohoo) and not the 24th (a
sunday). track on tape was an inferior version of pop quiz taken from a
session for a radio show in scotland (i'd like a tape of the whole
session if anybody's got one. hey, worth a try). tape unavailable to
overseas readers, sorry.

Hmm, I guess then the lesson to be surmised is: don't hold yr breath.
Y'know, I do recall seeing the 'Mercy Seat' EP listed in some import
distributor's catalog as being available on both 12" and CD, but that was
years and years ago. While the absolutely godhead 12" version of "Mercy
Seat" was tacked onto the end of the UVS reissue on Columbia, the other two
gems on the EP (the original version of "Mercy Seat" notwithstanding) were
woefully ignored. Admittedly, the Monkeywrench did a pretty amusing sendup
of Buffy Saint Marie's "Cod'ine," but among the three versions of that song
I'm aware of, I think Ralske's rendition stands above the other two (the
original included). And "H Like in Heaven" is sheer beauty.
To change the subject, I really wonder how 'Her Highness' would have sounded
like if they did get someone like Guy Fixsen to twiddle knobs with Brad
Laner.
Cheers,
hk
