I received a copy of the enhanced 'Limbo' CD today including an exclusive=
bonus video track, recorded live 3/17/96 (somewhere...). The packaging is=
better than the 4AD UK version. The jewel case is transparent green, and=
there's a piece of paper with the bands name on top of it (the UK version=
has an ugly blue sticker on it). But the printer who did the UK inlay did a=
better job...
This video is a 39 MB QuickTime Movie, it can be viewed in a Macromedia=
Director Projector file - including the title 'Ruthie's Knocking' and two=
buttons 'pause/quit' but you can also play it with MoviePlayer. QuickTime=
2.1 is included on the disc - but you should use version 2.5 (I'm talking=
about the Mac version here... I have never touched a Windows machine in my =

So I've got Limbo two times... I must be an idiot... why don't they put=
those extra bits on every cd?
=46or those of you who don't have a copy of this CD or can't view the video=
or are planning to buy it, I have placed a few captures of it on a=

I wasn't even looking in the suburbs - I was looking in the Buckhead/Lenox
area - Tower, HMV, Borders, etc. And I haven't found it for less than
14.99, and I haven't found one store that had more than one copy. I keep
hoping it will turn up at Best Buy or Circuit City - I am patient. I
don't think it's necessarily because of the distribution, because all of
these stores had DCD's Spiritchaser. Hmm...

you're absolutely correct fred. this *is* a luxury item.

nope, the real question is, can I stop buying CDs for two weeks
seriously.
this kind of talk about not buying CDs really scares me. I think that
starting a war with the music industry is stupid *and* dangerous.
just remember, all the people in the industry can find other ways of
making money. but we don't have any other way of getting the music.
I feel that we are very lucky with the situation as it is. considering
that the artists themselves are generously releasing their music with very
little demands. I know if I had the ability to write music (oh, what a wish)
I wouldn't feel a bit inclined to share that music with complete strangers.
most artists do have that inclination and I for one, wouldn't do anything
that would risk change that. (like not buying CDs)
lets consider ourselves lucky that at the time we live in, music is
constantly being written, produced, printed and distributed in a very
available form. so it's not as cheap as bread. it's a lot tastier though.

Hmmm. Why not just ban non-4ad bands (answer: life with only 4ad would
be boring!!!).
I stay on this list because there are a lot of people with good taste out
there (applause). There are good things to say about new and old 4ad, as
well as the 4adish bands that are discussed (spirtualized, cranes, etc.)

Even though CT & DCD are my favorite bands, if it were not for the 4AD list
I wouldn't have "discovered" HNIA, who ranks up there in my top 10. So I
prefer to have this 4AD-l stay as is.
And besides, all the CT mailing list and fan forum folks would also add the
ethereal list, and you'd still be over-utilizing your delete key due to all
the repetition of info.
Just a few cents worth.

This is a good idea, because not many stores can take back cd's customers
buy and then return simply because they don't like what they heard. Here in
the states, many indie record stores provide headphones and allow folks to
preview what they are interested in buying. Some of the bigger stores will
do this as well. (Blockbuster Music here in Atlanta suburbs will do that,
and now the folks who work there know my taste and even set aside "weird"
stuff for me to listen to when it comes into their hands!)
----- End Included Message -----
the reason many indie stores will not accept returns without defects is
because that cd can not be returned to the distributer for any credit.
this is true with any store, except some stores such as blockbuster
re-shrinkwrap the disc.

I was in Berlin for a while, and there is a large chain of record store,
Wom, that has literally hundreds of headphones. if one day you don't know
what to do and don't want to spend money you just go there. and they have,
in the same shops, a desk with a dozen of vinyl and cd record player with a
guy to which you bring the pile of records you wanna hear and he gladly play
them to your headphones. and in Berlin there is plain cd renting, but
nobody complain, and records sells.
>and now the folks who work there know my taste and even set aside "weird"

same for me at the ex-rent shop here... sometimes I bring them my cd to
listen to...

yeees of course. we take watermelons very seriously here. there is a

tell the quality by knocking the watermelon on the surface. if it "sound"
then it's good... for the pizza is different, you just don't come back there.

That is good advice. And Wuxtry and Criminal are where I go when I am
prepared to pay retail ($13 to $14), and they do have a generous selection
of harder to find stuff. It's just a bit inconvenient to get over there,
and they charge for parking on the weekends...
And I'm guessing it's pretty far for Carol.
I do prefer to support small independant shops rather than the
national electronics superstores... But sometimes I get led by my wallet
(and the gaping hole it contains).
So, does anyone know what time HNIA is playing on Tuesday?

I just bought Symphony No. 9 and I must hear more!
The first track is kinda sleepy, but the second one
is pure genius-- the string section of an orchestra
going nuts with quick complexes of repetitive rhythms,
making an amazing cacophony.
I'd place it somewhere between Philip Glass and Michael Nyman.
What other works of his would anyone recommend?

Didn't we learn our lesson from the Cocteau Twins list??? What a horrid
disaster. Sure i love DCD (i love CT too) but the list would just be overrun by
those who want to exchange stories about how they first got introduced to the
band, how they love having sex to DCD, how their Aunt actually likes DCD even
though she's 45 and is otherwise uncool, the benefits of CD over vinyl,
Digipacks over jewel-cases, what is and isn't "goth", all sorts of
rumor-mongering, and ... the list could go on and on between releases and tours
AND WOULD! We'd have 1 valuable message a day and 25 pieces of e-trash.
Now, on the other hand, an ethereal list might be quite nice. There does seem
to be some sort of divergence on this list but i'd probably be on both. There's
enough to talk about without falling into meaningless banter and
let's-get-to-know-each-other "filler" that only serve to fill your mailbox and

I think you might be too young to remember what happen to the record
industry in the 70s. They were having a serious time selling records.
People didn't like what was being produced and prices were rising due to
the oil embargos. The market will force adjustments IF people take it upon
themselves to hold fast and find alternative methods of obtaining
music...taping, going to the library, buying them used. This isn't about
the artist, it is about the added charges, each time that cd changes hands
through the economic system that eventually arrives in your hands.

The forthcoming Lush compilation to be released in Japan by Nippon
Columbia is to be titled "Topolino", which is Italian for little mouse.
This same compilation or a variation of it also titled "Topolino" will
also be released in Canada by Mercury/Polydor tentatively in late
October/early November. While not even confirmed slightly, the
Canadian version MAY contain extra tracks not on the Japanese version.
Hopefully other territories will release this compilation as well.

Woa! Gettin' a little sensitive about the age thing, eh? Actually that

Yeah, it's too far to go just for cd shopping...but hey, I can't knock where
I live, cause it's only 45 min. drive to Athens, and live shows at the 40
Watt are usually much cheaper than shows by same bands in Atlanta!

I wish I knew...has anyone called the club? If you do, ask about the opening
act, cause I want to figure out if I want to miss em & take a nap, or head
on into the big city to see the whole show.
I'll look for ya Greg (hey, what am I looking for?)

I am watching now a '70 sf film called Zardoz. there are some scenes of
trees mirroring in a lake that resemble the cover of the Gerrard solo album.
some relations?

I don't know what the exchange rate is now... but when I paid for mine in
January...it came to only about $270 US dollars..... hmmm.
For those still wanting one, I'd go for the source first (4AD mail order).
Nothing against Arcana, I've ordered from them before and highly recommend
them....but if you can save a $100.....
speaking of price hikes, anyone else see the ad in the recent Goldmine where
someone is auctioning a Lilliput in M- condition....minimum bid is, get
this, .... $500
to bad we can't buy stock in 4AD eh?
