Subject: Are You In A Band?
From: "Diamond" <arnos@nantucket.net>
Hi and howdy doody
(i'm the union man, you can call me roody!)
Kevin here. Just writting to say a few things. First, before I forget, I
have page-a-day calander of the 367 stupidest things ever said. Today's is
pentagon's discription of peace. According to them:
PEACE: permanent pre-hostility
Nice, eh? Thought you'd enjoy it. Thought of a possible weird al spoof:
life ain't so good in the whitehouse:
Life ain't so good in the whitehouse
Hilary wants to divorce me and run for house
Life ain't so good in the whitehouse
My VP is gonna be the next whitehouse mouse
Anyway...recently bought an album I thought you people would like. The
buggle's The Age Of Plastic. Classic new-wave here, folks. Great stuff.
Especially "Living in the plastic age," "Elstree," and of course "Video
killed the radio star" any new-wave fans (Say, fans of Devo or Thomas
Dolby) will love it, but I could definetly detect trace xtc-like
moments. The Lead Singer/Bass player (Trevor Horn)'s voice sounds like a
cross 'tween andy and colin. good stuff.
Also: Best lyric on AV1: I heard the dandilions roar in picadilly circus
Worst: Knights in shining Karma tend your flame (That whole song just annoys
me, I don't know why.)
Song I thought should be single: River of Orchids. (Even thought up a music
video for it.)
One more question: How many readers of the hills here are in bands, or
write and record music? I'm in a band, myself (Bass Player, co-songwriter,
Co-Vocalist, Colin-wannabee), and I thought if there was enogh people here
who wrote music here we could put together a compilation album like they
did at the They Might be Giants website. We could either all do XTC covers
(I Call Extrovert!) or we could even do originals just to show each other
what we do. It would be fun, what do you think? I already missed the TMBG
one, that's why I thought I'd ask about it here. Think about it, and get
in touch with me. Thanks.
That's all

In a recent digest, John Hedges shared his thoughts on Vietnam themed songs, here's a snippet- "Most American alt-rockers have treated the whole subject of Vietnam as more of a joke than anything else (witness Lee Harvey Oswald Band's "Panic in Hanoi," Dead Milkmen's "Beach Party Vietnam," and Lotion's "Marijuana Vietnam")." This is probably true because most alt-rockers are relatively young, compared to the generation(s) that were more directly impacted by the war. The passage of time allows us to view the human experience with a sharper, less emotional eye.--(Cue up the satire and scathing humor)....Which makes me think of the song, 'Truckdrivin' Neighbors Downstairs', by Beck. It starts out with the lines; Acid casualty with a repossed car... Vietnam vet, playin' air guitar... He's just the shit kickin', speed takin', truck drivin' neighbor, downstairs-- Darkly disturbing songstory... and rings of truth too... first time I heard it I was sure Beck was referring to a man who lived in the apartment across from mine (circa 1981).... anyway, I'm just rambling now, sorry everyone.... --On the recent discussions about Jason and The Argonauts, and the nautical leanings of Mr. P....didn't Mr. P senior pick the name Andrew because it was slang speak for the Navy, as in 'being in the Andrew'? I love that! Sorry to bend your chalkie ears, kidz- Best regards, Debora 'is that a Sears poncho you're wearing?'

Don't do it kids! Just say no! "Skylarking" was rarely off my turntable when I first bought it back in '87. By '88 I could hardly bear listening to it, and it wasn't til about '94 that I was able to appreciate it again. It's like it's *so* good it becomes impossible to listen to. A problem I still have with REM's "Green". So now I carefully mete out my listening - AV1 pops in and out of the shelf a lot, but there are whole passages of days go by withoug my listening to it, just so that I can continue to listen to it. Also enjoying Barenaked Ladies "Stunt" at the moment so am rationing that too. Am also annoyed, as I swap my battered old records for pristine new CDs, by the intrusive nature of the additional tracks. Why couldn't they slap on at the end. For some reason, the additional tracks really seem to effect the balance of "Mummer" for me. Anybody know where I can find Hunter's and Collector's "Jaws of Death"?

In case you hadn't heard, they actually went back >and did all new >remixes from the master tapes for this release. Help me get through my cynical days. I am moved to ask why this was not done in the first place? (The low moaning sound you hear is emanating from all of us who are being induced to buy this record for the third or fourth time ....Marketing Rools, OK. >Heresy?

Heresy?? Is this a religious relic? Zappa remastered all his stuff for CD - which has to be done anyway if you really care about how it sounds - and of course the purists threw their hands up in horror. So what? Frank reckoned he was never all that happy with the original mixes and masterings anyway. Likewise for Lennon: I recall him saying in the 70s that he didn't like the quality (pre-CD obviously) of a lot of the Beatles stuff and would have liked to re-record some of the things like Pepper using better equipment. (George Martin was a bit miffed of course.) As far as four tracks is concerned ... hmmm, not sure about that. As far as I know, for all that earlier stuff like "Nowhere Man" they will only have the 4-track multitracks to work from, although whether ALL the multitracks survive is another question. I would assuem a lot of the working tracks which were later bounced down to the 4-track master were not kept, but who knows? Anyway hey won't have to "bounce it down" as before, although one can't help wondering how this will affect the overall sound. The later stuff I'm not so sure about - I know by that time they were starting to use 8-track - some of the stuff on Magical Mystery Tour (I think) was done on the new 8-track at Olympic, as I recall, which was one of the first times they worked outside Abbey Rd. (Is this an anorak I see before me?) The well-known songs I can take or leave. What I'm most interested to hear is George's stuff. Apparently he took particular interest in the remix of "Only A Northern Song" and "It's All Too Much", which have always been two of my faves (All Too Much being IMHO one of THE great pschedelic songs) so they should sound pretty wild now. Apparently EMI are also giving a big push to the wonderful "Hey Bulldog", which is one of the best Beatles songs from that era, and a classic bit of Lennon at his acerbic best. Killer riff too. Should be good. Which reminds me... speaking of marketing (where is the "Smile" box set, please, Capitol? How about the Japan and XTC boxes please Virgin?) ... I found an interesting page on a Beatles site the other day all about why EMI squashed a proposed re-release of the mono mix of Sgt Peppers. It's a very interesting point, and really bears out my belief that the majors are trying to squeeze every last cent out the Fab Franchise. The mono mix of Pepper - and indeed for almost all the Beatles LPs - was always regarded by the group and George Martin as the preferred mix format. The vast majority of time and effort was put into the mono mix, and it was these to which the band themselves paid the most attention, and were often directly involved. As I understand it, they were mostly not even present for the stereo mixes, which were generally done very fast, and more or less as an afterthought. The most obvious result of this process is the infamous stereo mix of Rubber Soul (which the Fabs hated). RS was only ever intended to be heard in mono but it was deemed necessary to 'remix' it for stereo for the US market (a rush job, by all accounts), so we ended up with that terrible "mix", which I think was done merely by separating the tracks on the stereo master, with all the vocals squashed over to one side and all the backing tracks on the other. According to this article, only about 10 hours was devoted to mxing Sgt Pepper for stereo, out of the 700-odd hours of recording and mixing on that album. The mono mixes for most of the mid-late 60s LPs were noticeably different from the stereo mixes. The White Album is a case in point, with the mono mixes of songs like "Piggies" and "Helter Skelter" reputedly being significantly different from the "standard" stereo versions most of us know. Anyway - apparently EMI had the whole Pepper mono thing ready and sent out adverts and it was all going to come out in a nice limited edition box etc etc - and then they inexplicably pulled the plug and no-one will now talk about. It really begs the question of what moneygrubbers EMI are. There is no reason why they could not have issued the mono mixes of the LPs on the same CD (or even on a 'bonus' CD). It's not as if they haven't made their money back ninety times over, and it's certainly not as if they need to be worried about whether it will sell! Same goes for XTC: how long until we have to fork out more of our hard-earned bucks when Virgin decides to remaster it all properly? (I can dream can't I?) Oh well ... back to the alleged grind I suppose. In the meantime, let me express my best wishes to fellow Chalker Iain Murray and his bride-to-be Louise for his impending wedding, which will also be a mini-Chalkhills convention by the sound of it. If anyone knows any reason why this couple should not be joined in wedlock, let them speak now or forever hold their peace! Dunks

From: "Diamond" <arnos@nantucket.net>
I thought I'd let you all in on something I heard today. There's a
13 year old girl whom I work with at my summer job. yesterday, she
bought the first Cd she's ever bought with her own money. It was a
Beastie Boys CD. And then, when a song came on the radio, she said
"Hey, this song isn't popular, what is it doing on the radio?" It kind
of shows the state of music today, eh? If it's not popular, it doesn't
belong on the radio. \
XTC Content: Theres this band called xtc, and they've got these cool
songs, and I like to tlisten to them. maybe you've heard of them.

The Monkees... You might see some disagreement if I were on a Monkees list. My favorite song of theirs is 'Zilch'. Seriously, though, I chalk up a lot of the disagreement about XTC songs on this list to what we like about XTC, or how we discovered them. I, for example, got into them because they were lumped into the new wave scene, and I just ate that stuff up during highschool and most of college. Other people on the list seem to have discovered XTC through their love of good pop music. The Beatle-esque parts of the XTC catalog appeal most to these folks. I recall talking to someone at Andy's signing in CHicago in Feb. who can't tolerate anything from the new wave yet loves XTC. I thought it was somehow contradictory until I realized that this person had found XTC through Beatles fans who recommended Skylarking. This group seems to accomidate people with a wide variety of musical tastes. That makes this list more interesting.

"Kreideberger":
HAH!! Got ya!!! Of course, I love reading Harrison's posts as much as the
next guy, but something about that last bunch in #263 piqued my interest.
Okay, the Chaucer was well-researched and nearly flawless (although I
wonder if he went back far enough, I thought there was some mention of the
topic in the heroic poem "Beowulf, Episode 5: die mihtig architektuere
taenzah baekke").
Bu-hutt: we were probably meant to think that "Complaining about lists is
like shaving your legs about Volkswagens" was a Harrison original -- and
yes, it is deep -- but somehow, when I read it, it seemed to strike a
familiar chord. So I decided to investigate and tapped into the website
"Quotable quotes", Al S. Quothee's fantastic and excruciatingly useful
page at:
<http://chalk.hills.com/eon/youreal/lybel/ievethi/s?/hesaidshesaid.htm>.
I found the quote to be attributed to numerous, completely diverse
individuals, including:
Harrison Ford - 34 times
George Harrison - 33 1/3 times
Rex Harrison - 7 times (attributed to him at least once by Mr. Ed, another
time by Eddie Murphy)
The George O'Hara-Smith Singers - 3 times
Tina Weymouth - 2 times
Harrison, NJ - 1 time
Joe Krishna - 0 times
Timothy Leary - 43 times
In my eyes, the arguments for Leary are definitely the most persuasive
evidence thus far, despite the fact that a few of the attributions (42)
were associated with a slight variant on the theme: "Wow, man, look at the
colors!" I support this hypothesis on the following basis:
1) I know for certain that it is a *fact* (my brother told me) that, No
(no-no-no), Leary is NOT outside looking in, he is *dead*.
2) Leary is associated with other amazing quotes ("Tune up, drop in, turn
left") that are also cool.
3) Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds is not about LSD, but about a girl named
Lucy flying cross-country with our very own Kevin Diamond in the same
(astral?) plane.
4) Because I said so.
So there we are. Can't pull the wool over *my* eyes!
- Jeff "I did" Thomas
PS - Q: Would I like to read more posts by Harrison? A: Sherwood!
PPS - On an entirely different note, my quote of the day (by Brooke
Shields, of all people!): "Complaining about lists is like wearing Calvin
Klein underwear about Volkswagens."
PPPS - I'm fresh out of Charizards. Perhaps we could work a deal with some
of my other tradeables: a Bicentennial set of bladeless knives without
handles, or my collection of assorted contact lenses with frames, or -- for
the lady in your life -- some top-chic gownless evening straps. Let me
know.

Rob and listmates: The band Too Much Joy uses LOTS of lalala, doodoodoodoodado, schoobity bop bop. What makes their use of it really interesting is that they are a heavily Clash-influenced band. Unfortunately, their first four albums are out of print, because they pissed off their recording label, and their fifth, _Finally!_ was banned in some areas, and there are both "clean" and "dirty" versions of the album cover. Too Much Joy is a really cool band, and their music is good, but I sold all their albums when the boyfriend that got me into them in the first place dumped me. I kind of regret that now, but I have most of their catalog memorized, so I still can sing 'em any time I want. -ANdrea
