Two "thislisty" Faye Wong CD's:
*Random Thinking (1994): has covers of the Cocteau's "Know Who You Are At
Every Age" (retitled: "Know Oneself And Each Other") and "Bluebeard"
"Dreams" which was featured in her movie debut "Chungking Express" (which
was a very good movie, by the way)
*Impatience (1996): "Fracture" and "Brooming Happiness" written for her by
Cocteau Twins.
I thought I'd never live to hear a Cocteau Twins cover, of all things! CT

cd, Japanese import, from 1983. $20.00

Those of you in the San Francisco area can purchase the Faye Wong cd's in
Chinatown at Man's Trading Corporation, at 745 Clay Street..."Random
Thinking" is $18.00, and "Impatience" is $16.00! Great prices for Hong Kong
imports...they also have the Cocteau Twins' "Milk and Kisses" Hong Kong
version with Faye on vocals on "Serpentskirt" for $18.00..."Impatience" is a
must for any Cocteau's fan, since the entire album is very influenced by the
cocteaus circa "Heaven or" and "Four Calendar"...why, the album artwork &
photos are better than most V23 stuff lately as well! Seek it out (the
Cocteaus did their own version of "Brooming Happiness" live when they
recently played in SF, and their version of "Fracture" appears on one of the
new "Violane" singles, can't recall the title.)

Hi,
Read some notes about the Glee Club, hopefully this information is not
redundant ... I have a mini-lp on Setanta, self titled, set lpm9, 1993, these
are the tracks,
1 Need
The Blame
Remember the Years
Fey Blue
2 Bad Child's Dolly
Drives You Away
Free to Believe
I bought this during my strict vinyl-only days, when I couldn't find a copy
of 'Mine'. (does anybody know if vinyl copies of 'Mine' really exist, or have
a copy?) Don't know what this mini-lp is, always assumed it was a follow-up
lp, but perhaps it is the recording sessions that led up to 'Mine'?

Voila - Going Global Series
Quango
File under / Classer dans la section: World Music
A lot of rubbish is talked about house and techno's position as the=20
globe's new musical lingua franca. Usually by people who have spent a few=
=20
too many hours under the sun on a Goan beach. Ditching English speaking=20
vocals and throwing a few lazy tribal samples in the mix doesn't=20
automatically mean you've created the sonic equivalent of the United=20
Nations.
The Going Global Series puts that right. Launched in Paris in September
'93, it takes the African and Arabic music that has worked its way into
French culture, via a colonial past, and places it in a fresh context.
That of the remix, which when properly executed, is an entirely separate
musical art form in its own right. The result of this experiment is found
on this record: exciting, state of the art modern music with a truly
international flavor.
The artists allowing their work to be retouched, Khaled, Mory Kante, and
Rachid Taha, are huge stars in their own right. Algerian Khaled outsells
Michael Jackson in Africa and Asia, while Guinea's Mory Kante dominated
European radio in the summer of '88 with "Yeke Yeke", which sold over one
million copies. Thanks to its large African and Arabic immigrant=20
community, Going Global's Paris home has become the place where=20

The stunning remix of Mory Kante's "Yeke Yeke" by Germany's legendary
Hardfloor is already one of the biggest dance records of '95, and
elsewhere UK techno icon Justin Robertson, of Lionrock fame, transforms
Rachid Taha's "Voila Voila" and "Indie" into dancefloor classics. =20

Someone else has said that it comes from a Brian Eno song. The rumour that
Giles is referring to comes from an NME review which said that Hitler had
decreed that "A Certain Ration" of non-Gentile blood defined a Jew.
Complete bollocks of course. I never did find out if the reviewer (Lynn
somebody, I think) had thought it up as a (pretty stupid, given the
context) joke or whether they believed it to be true.
Anyways, imho, "To Each" is the essential ACR album and the early singles
are pretty wonderful. I was so disappointed in Sextet (only Lucinda
frosted my glass) and of course they subsequently subsided into mor.

No, but I've come close. There was a great "And Also The Trees" cover from
about ten years ago that looked like it might be a photo of Amazon
rainforest. Then there was Section 25's "Looking From A Hilltop" which
featured some cool mountain scenery. If I ever release another record, I'm
gonna put a picture of me by Angle Tarn (taken from Angletarn Pikes) put on
it. I'm a sucker for natural outdoor scenery ... but not that much of a
sucker, I didn't buy either record.
Anyone else nearly or actually bought records cos. of the cover?

Hee hee, now now Paul :-). I'm always surprised by the (imho!)
historically appalling taste shown by loads of people on this list but I
guess that reflects more on me than them. So many of the bands mentioned
are generally regarded as a joke by Brits with any interest in the sort of
music that this list covers. You only have to look at the differing
attitudes to the likes of Depeche Mode. I've always had the impression
that us Brits are more snobby than most nations when it comes to music.

With all the talk about Labradford, Jessamine, and the Kranky drone thing
etc. on this list, I'm surprised the name Super Collider has never been
mentioned here. Super Collider, they are from LA, recorded 2 CDs for the
Emigre label: - 'Super Collider' (1991, ECD 006), not that good, and more
like The Magnetic Fields.
- 'Dual' (1993, ECD 013). This one is brilliant.
Their sound on 'Dual' can described as a cross between the bands mentioned
above and Joy Division/early New Order, with some weird minimal/repetitive
Glass-ish extra.

And finally, when I worked at a radio station and I got free promos

Actually, I've been nearly fooled by 'em. The v23 design is so
distinctive, but I've noticed some major labels are now trying to mimic
it on some releases. Seaweed's CD comes to mind. You pick something up
with altered photographs and interesting fonts and think "Hmm, something
new from 4ad?"
Well, you're wrong. I have been a little iffy on some things, but
usually I go by the actual record label (4ad, bedazzled, matador, etc.,
etc) rather than just the cover. Still, the mock-v23 cover did at least
get me to pick up the CD and look it over. Had I been a little less
informed.....
