I just wondered if anyone else on this list is going this Friday =
to see
Gus Gus in Reykjavik. If so, and you want to meet up, drop me a line
- Dez
I can't make it to the Reykjavik gig, but if someone's going to the =
London gig, it will quite cool. as far as I know, they haven't decided =
on the venue and the date, but it should be around the end of February.

Hey does anyone remember a silly new wave song from the
early 80's where the lyrics were "You know the dead can dance, the
dead can dance, you know the dead the dead the dead can dance".
I just remember a cheesy synth and some guy with a Dead Milkmen
singing voice doing it with another guy singing in the background.
Somebody please put me out of my misery and tell me who did this one.
PLEASE someone tell me i'm wrong to say it was "Wang Chung" that did that
one... i cannot bear to think there was a reference to that group on this
list, and worse yet, that i made it!

Got the new Buddha On The Moon 'Crepe Paper Airplane'/'Glider' 7" on
Wurlitzer Jukebox (WJ 21) in the mail yesterday, "fresh from being bagged".
2 great tunes, edited and remixed by HNIA's Warren Defever. Need I say more?

Question to hk: why do both tracks have a 2nd title ('My Favorite Cut Out
Doll'/'Like A Sickness From Within')?????

Although I'm not a Gus Gus devotee at all, I feel obliged, as a 4AD diehard,
to pass on this information from 4AD Mailorder:
There are 150 sets of GUS1/GUS2 promo 12"s for sale (NOT available
separately!) at GBP 6,-. Postage for UK = GBP 2,-/ Europe GBP 3,-/
USA&Canada GBP 4,50/ Rest of the World GBP 5,50.
(I bet Ivo and co. will pay their transfer to the Gus Gus Iceland gig from
the money they make on these promo's)

and their bands by the way didn't survive, when the label started "to cheat".

I think you're thinking of "The Safety Dance" (at least I think that's what
it was called), by Men Without Hats. And I don't think he was singing "the
dead can dance...", but rather "the safety dance". Something like that...I
hate the song myself.

Yep, sounds like 'safety dance' to me.
I don't know where you came up with those lyrics though. Me thinks too
much 4ad on the brain ;)

I understand that the e-mail I sent with the subject "Tarnation's =
Mirador" has been unsuccessfuly delievered.
I have sent it again. Please advise if you got wrong again.
the original e-mail was written as any other, no attachements =

As promised, here is some more information on Tarnation's new release =
(April '97) - Mirador. This is taken from 4ad's promo pages. I've picked =
the information concerning the music, but there's a lot more on those =
pages on the band's history and influences. there's a lot to read, and I =
apologize on the length of this.
"with the same line-up consolidating around former member Paula, the =
darkly-brooding laments are more intense, the spooked guitar twangs more =
haunting, the rhythmic backdrop tougher, and the strength and range of =
Frazer's exquisite voice captured with greater clarity. After Lincoln =
Allen, Michelle Cemuto and Matt Sullivan left the band to start another, =
Frazer was introduced to Oropeza and drummer Joe Byrnes, who's own trio =
Broken Horse gives the boys their own creative outlet, leaving Paula =
free to run the roost - the new album Mirador is solely her songs and =
vocals but ironically, Tarnation sounds much more like a group. The =
fourth member, Dublin bassist/multi-instrumentalist Jamie Meagan, is =
Paula's partner, who she met at work - her as an archeologist, he as a =
construction worker. In these hands, Tarnation dynamics have quadrupled =
- they're just as likely to rock out (as on "An Awful Shade Of Blue", =
"Your Thoughts And Mine", the album one cover version "Little Black =
Egg", and the first single from Mirador "There's Someone") as they are =
supping from the ballad-heavy well of loneliness. Even in her most =
lamenting form - "Christine", "Like A Ghost", "Wait" and "Idly", then =
they are songs that can soothe, not break, your own lonely heart.=20
Tarnation is slang for "hell", says Frazer. I chose the name because =
it's a comical and dark name at the same time. Sometimes there can be =
humour in sadness.
There are twelve sublime tracks in Mirador, but Tarnation have included =
two extra hidden tracks - one a haunting, soul-on-fire shanty, Paula's =
wordless whistling sands moan lulling you to put it out in a watery =
grave, and an extended sequel to "Gentle Creatures" - "The Well". "
There's a lot more on Frazer's musical education and influences, but =
that's another time. As for my personal thoughts on this album (and I =
know you can't share this with me yet), it's haunting magic. something =
like The Bad Seeds without Nick Cave who gave up for Paula's songs. =
brilliant guitar work, and you all know Paula's voice, which became more =
powerful and clear. haven't seen the art work for the album yet, and I =
left the tracklisting at work, so ther's still more to come. again, =
sorry about the length of all this.

I went used Cd/record shopping and picked up some good stuff. I bought
Meat Beat Manifesto's "99%"....can someone tell me how this album rates
to their others....i personally like it a lot. Same with the St. Etienne
album ("Fox Base Alpha"), Echo ("Heaven Up Here")...speaking of the
bunnymen, their was also a used 12" EP for $1.50 which i didn't get. It
was a live recording, and only had 4 songs. Is this good, too? Last but
not least, i picked up the first Roches record fro $1.00. I was shocked
when listening to it that it reminded me a lot of Liqourice!! At least
the song structores...not the vocals too much. I always thought
Liqourice were semi-original, but after listening to this, i think it's
safe to say the Roches were a HUGE influence on Jenny and co.....
a penny for your thoughts....
Matt
p.s. - I'm in Raleigh and am looking for the Gus Gus EP but can't find it
ANYWHERE. Anyone know of a good place in NC or a good mail order
place???? thanks again....

Only on the CD and not on the vinyl I guess? Unless they are going to hide
them under the labels.

...but can you rely on the label?
It says on the actual disc sleeve that it is a promo compilation for Latin
American countries...I have a suspicion that it's only just being released
about now, even though it has a date long past printed on it - which would
explain why we haven't heard about it yet. I think Jens' site says something
about a release date of April on it, but I'm not sure. Of course many of it
will be interested in it because it features the string version of Mojave 3's
"Mercy".
