The latest thing I've seen by Spiritualized comes in a plain white
sleeve with the Pure Phase logo on it, and it seems to be
a recording of reference tones. All the tracks are listed as
frequencies in kHz at both 33 and 45 rpm. I can imagine Mark
Robinson would think this was cool, but would anyone really
buy what is essentially just a stereo/electronics test record?
Or is it a joke and these are really normal songs?

My guess is it's additional MIME info that's part of the message, not an
enclosure as such. Most mail readers today just support MIME (Multimedia
Internet Mail Enclosures) for file enclosures, but it can also be used to
append formatting info like fonts/styles or embedded pictures. Some newer
mail programs support this -- Microsoft Exchange and Apple's CyberDog are
the two I know of. Those reading the message using a mail program that
doesn't support rich text will see the data as a mysterious enclosure.
Just ignore it and await the happy day when we'll all be freed of the
tyranny of monospaced ascii with hard line breaks!

I have seen a black, promo-only cardboard box containing "Laser Guided
Melodies" and two u.k. singles. It was pretty non-descript & except for a
cool little photo, it wasn't anything I didn't already have, so I spent my
$15 on something else. Could this possibly be it?

I posted the track lists for the 2-track 7" and 4/5-track CD-EP to the list
yesterday, but didn't mention then that although 'Universal Frequencies' (I
mistakenly called it 'Beech Boys', sorry) is exactly the same on both
formats, the version of 'Summer Of ESP' on the CD is longer than on the 7".
It has a bonus 25 seconds of noisy singing.
I'd say buy the CD-EP for the music, and the 7" for the labels artwork.

The Universal Frequencies 12" must be a US pressing, as there is no
(regular) UK 12".

This is from a post on the David Sylvian list (I have edited it greatly!):
Date: Tue, 21 May 1996 16:50:17 +0100 (BST)
The last four concerts I've seen, all enjoyable in their different ways, have
been Ron Sexsmith, The Cocteau Twins, Billy Bragg, and Lloyd Cole.
Incidentally sylvian met The Cocteaus Liz Frazier in New York in the late
Eighties and expressed an interest in working with her, but sadly nothing
came of this. Sylvian was also asked to sing on the last This Mortal Coil
album Blood, as were Scott Walker and Ian McCullogh, but turned down the
offer since he "couldn't relate to the lyrics".
Wouldn't that have been intriguing???

Alrighty then. First off, I finally got myself a Spiritualized album, and I
absolutely love it. I haven't been able to dislodge it from my cd player.
So I've got a few questions:
1) Are they still together?
2) I saw a discography for them. Which of their items is out of print?
3) At one time I heard about a boxed set of three albums. What is in it,
exactly?
On a different note. So I was out record shopping yesterday and found the
third copy of Slowdive's Holding Our Breath ep in two months. All of them
have been under $15. Can someone with a Creation catalogue pleeeeeeease
tell me if this has been reissued without my knowing it?
Thankya much,
Jake

Youse may already know this, but Elektra has their own Stereolab page at:
b.html
It's got a press-release-style (but well done for the genre) description
of the band, plus pictures of the sleeves of the 3 Elektra albums,
RealAudio files of "Cybele's Reverie" and "The Noise Of Carpet", and a
video of the former. They score bonus points for having a link to the One
True Stereolab page at
but you already know all about that one...

so what's the difference between the formats, if any? also between the
UK and US versions, will there be some difference? i certainly am looking
forward to this release, as im enjoying that live tape from xmas detroit
where they did these songs live a great deal. that alongside the track on
the shaving tape, it would appear to be the ideal summer lounge and sulk
music. hooray

just an opposing viewpoint for spice: i enjoy listening to the 'silver'
album from time to time (like once every 6 months), but it can get kind of
monotonous after two or so listens. i took the 'gold' album back because
imo that record was even *more* monotonous and boring - they seemed to play
every song in the same key, ineffective and unimaginative leads,
predictable chord progressions. i wasn't impressed.

Hey AGAIN,
Am I to assume that no one on this list has the new Cocteau Twins album?
Someone please just look at the liner notes and see if it states as my cd
does that "Faye Wong sings with Elizabeth Fraser on Serpentskirt"...just
curious if this is Hong Kong only!
Thanks?,
Peter

>Hey,

>Could anyone enlighten me as to whether Faye Wong is on the US or UK
versions of "Milk and Kisses"? I think she has an amazing voice, very
Liz-like, and have the Hong Kong version of the album on which she sings on
"Serpent Skirt". The Hong Kong version goes so far as to have a sticker on
the front which says "Featuring Faye Wong"!!!

Former Guernica artists that dog. have two shows coming up.
According to their postcard you should "sneak out of the house
and spend your weekends with that dog."
Sunday May 26th @ Alligator Lounge, 3321 Pico in West LA.
All Ages.
Saturday June 1st @ Spaceland, 1717 Silverlake, Los Angeles,
just over the hill from Rockaway and the Red Lion Tavern.
It's a 21+ show.
I believe I saw in LA Weekly that they're playing at
McCabes too, but maybe I just confused it with the
Alligator show.
