Having lurked for the last week, I finally feel able to jump into the ongoing miscellaneous and sundry discussions taking place here. First, to get this off on an XTC-related topic -- heh! -- I'm just wondering how many folks here prefer AV1 or Homespun? I largely prefer the versions of the Andy songs on Homespun myself. They seem to have a bit more immediacy, while the orchestrated AV1 versions are almost too antiseptic. Second, to hell with the mainstream -- don't ever let it get you in its currents! Recently my best friend -- with whom I used to haunt record stores -- and his wife tried setting me up on a blind date. Before I met the girl in question, they pulled me aside and said, in essence: "For God's sake, don't mention any of the weird music you listen to. Be normal." This was perhaps one of the most offensive things I'd ever heard in my life, and I told them so in as polite terms as I could muster with steam coming out of my ears. "No, no," they said, "you have us wrong. But if you mention bands she's never heard of you could possibly scare her away. Try to find other things in common than music. and then, after a while, start introducing her to what you like. Pretend you like Faith Hill or something." Ack. For a bit it made sense. Well. I kept my mouth shut about favorite bands -- thereby losing one of my best topics of conversation -- but it was all moot anyway. The blind date and I didn't hit it off. There's no way I'll ever even consider following this advice again. My ex-wife was into off-beat music, which is how we met . . . and we're still friendly, and we STILL talk music. And whoever I hook up with next had better be "weird" about music too. = ) And currently in / recently have been in my changer are the following: The Bolshoi: AWay (Best) David J: Songs from Another Season The Jazz Butcher Conspiracy: Glorious and Idiotic Alex North: 2001 (Original, Unused Score) The Loud Family: Attractive Nuisance Robyn Hitchcock: A Collection 1981 - 93 (homeburned comp disc) Devo: Through Being Cool (Best 1978 - 82) (homeburned comp disc) Steely Dan: Two Against Nature Peter Murphy: The Singles (homeburned comp disc) Martin Newell / Andy Partridge: The Greatest Living Englishman XTC: Homespun Take care, Benjamin Adams

Hola!
Heres my quick review of Wasp ( five ) Star. I listened all day yesterday
in headphones. I posted after my first listen so it wasnt very detailed. This
one will be a little more thorough.( Kind of )
Playground-- You know my opinion on this one but I'll say it again---
Catchy as HELL. This should be a single somewhere down the line.
Stupidly Happy---- A real head bopper. ANOTHER single.
In Another Life--- Bouncy yet simple ditty from Colin.
My Brown Guitar---VERY Beatles, Very good.
Boarded Up----Another of Colins. Nothing like he's ever done. Very
interesting. Almost spooky. It almost sounds like his swan song. ( Yikes! )
I'm the Man Who Murdered Love---- A GREAT sing along. Catchy as HELL. ( see
a pattern? )
We're All Light--- So far my favorite. I think its Wasp Stars "Then She
Appeared". This will have you dancin' all over. It makes me smile from WAY
DOWN DEEP. It actually has the same vibrato whistle thats in House of Pains "
Jump Around" but so help me , it friggin' works.
Standing In For Joe--- Colins third. Another bouncy tune. Nuff said.
Wounded Horse-- Andys drunken country song. I love it.
You & the Clouds--- Another jazzy song from Andy. I can picture Bill Cosby
doing his little shuffle dance to this one. ( I DONT KNOW WHY!!!!!)
Church of Women-- A mix of Books are Burning and Mr. Bigs " Just To Be
With You". Thats not a bad thing. It just sounds like youve heard it before.
Its still an excellent song.
Wheel & the Maypole--- Two different songs in one. Part two is the best.
More Dancing!!!
Overall , I give it an A+. Every song has some thing GREAT about it.
Back to listening. Roger

Check the contract, pal. And was there ever a less appropriate pseudonym? Time upon time, filming ground to a halt as Bony Boy exhausted fluffer after fluffer, all the while cramming Cheetos into his maw and getting Day-Glo orange gunk all over the talent. He'll never work in this town again. (Oh, as if he ever *did*!) >In fact, I've never really understood the whole Beach Boys/Brian >Wilson-as-icon thing. Yeah, they've got good vocals and a defined style, >but IMO none of their stuff Rocks. You stick to the Cheetos and Freshen-Up gum, Bony. Leave the difficult matter of good taste in music to the grownups. You know, the ones who can work up a... Oh never mind... Seriously, though, you have to compare Pet Sounds to its 1966 contemporaries to appreciate what a mindbogglingly innovative record it was. It's not *supposed* to Rock, that's kind of the whole point. It's a lunge toward adulthood, toward the notion of Pop Song as Art Object. It's also a declaration of independence from the strictures of two-guitars-bass-drums, a manifesto that the musical palette of a pop song could include any instrument, any sound, any damned thing the Artist wanted it to. Brian Wilson didn't invent this idea, by any stretch, but consider: The Mothers of Invention released Freak Out, their first album, four months after Pet Sounds. It isn't so much his voice-leading skills, (although these are truly amazing), and the Big-Assed Beach Boys harmonies are certainly a major selling point, but what makes me a staunch member of the "Brian Wilson is God" school is his ability to write an achingly gorgeous melody and couch it in a harmonic setting of a sophistication and deftness that leaves nearly all of his contemporaries in the dust. Even the Beatles were not in this league in 1966. Wilson's amazing talents were evident long before Pet Sounds, and if you analyze even the "dumb surf music" that most people associate with the Beach Boys you'll find chord changes and harmonic settings that twist the usual Brill Building/Spector formulas of the time into these amazing, intricate, glowing pretzels. Listen with a sympathetic ear to 1964's "The Warmth of the Sun," listen to what he's doing with the chords: Our Swindon Kapellmeister would be a humble daisy indeed if he could write one song so deceptively simple and beautiful (as I'm sure he himself would tell you). Hell, listen to the chords behind "Surfer Girl" and see what he does with that archetypal Fifties I-vi-IV-V7 doo-wop progression: for grins, compare it to the chords of the Fabs' "This Boy"--another interesting reworking of the doo-wop cliche--you'll see a glimmer of the roots of their legendary transatlantic rivalry. Back to Pet Sounds: "God Only Knows" is Wilson at the height of his awesome powers. The melodic setting of the verse instills a tension that grows with each line: each of the first three lines is unresolved, they visit neighboring keys, meandering, always hinting at the tonic but always avoiding the explicit statement. But just when the anxiety produced by this uncertainty becomes (literally) unbearable, the dam bursts and relief flows over us like divine providence: D/A Bm6 If you should ever leave me [In a lesser song, this would be the *second* line--the IV degree of the scale traditionally answers something stated over I in the first line. It leads us to believe, wrongly, that the home key is D. Anxiety is introduced when the rest of the verse belies this, hinting at A instead.] F#m F#m7 F#m6/A Though life would still go on, believe me [Rationalization. The A bass hints at a solution, a cadence, but supplies none.] E/B Cdim The world could show nothing to me, [Anxiety is cresting! I'm Brian Wilson! Bow down before me, puny human! (Note: That diminished chord will later become an Andy Partridge staple: cf. " a little frightened" in Then She Appeared)] E/B A#m7-5 So what good would living do me? [A#m7-5!!! A half step up from the implied tonic! What the hell key are we in?!?!? Tense, really tense, like a really tense thing! Fuck it, I'm taking the pipe!!! Goodbye cruel world!] A E/G# F#m7 vvv >God< only knows what I'd be without you ^^^ [*There's* that A major!!! Brian sez it's OK; You can take your head out of the oven now.] A-and look at the word that introduces the long-awaited cadence! That's some tight shit, Bucko. Note also that that last line doesn't *really* resolve; the F#m behind "without you" points right back into the irresolution. This anxiety/relief cycle continues until the round that provides the fadeout, when at last the oscillating emotions reach something resembling peace. This, Todd, Rocks. Compare it to the end of "Church of Women"--oops. Not supposed to talk about that yet. Sorry. ------ >Date: Sun, 02 Apr 2000 05:16:53 -0700 >From: Herne <herne@xxxxxxxxx.xxx> >1.) Patti Smith---she allegedly screwed Mick Jagger, her near OD >inspired "Wild Horses". She wrote Dancing Barefoot but...so? I was getting a little eye-weary, paging down at lightning speed past all those WIMP lists, and I missed this the first time around. Herne, people will probably buttonhole you and wag a reproachful finger in your face pointing out that the OD that inspired "Wild Horses" was Marianne Faithfull's, not Patti Smith's, but you and I know just how wrong they all are. It wasn't Marianne Faithfull, it was Marianne Partridge; it wasn't Wild Horses, it was Your Dictionary; it wasn't Mick Jagger, it was some geezer on a playground with a bike; it wasn't an OD, it was just a nasty cold; and it wasn't "screwing," it was "making sweet, sweet jungle love." Other than that, everything else is right. You're thinking of the Patti Smith who married ex-Soft Boys bassist Richard Hell, with whom they formed the original, pre-Bono U2 and had an international hit with "Stop! in the Name of Love," produced by (Hey! XTC connection!) Elton John's drummer Gus Dudgeon. After Hell's death in 1992, the peripatetic Patti, daughter of early-television pioneer "Buffalo Bob" Smith, wrote several episodes of the Star Wars sequel, Babylon-5. She can be seen nowadays as the center square in the New Hollywood Squares, making scathing puns and reciting off-the-cuff free verse. She last used heroin in 1986, but since has been going "clean for Gene" (Simmons, her new paramour). As far as I know, Ms. Smith always wrote sitting down and fully shod.

Hello Chalksters,
I
?d like to thank ?vee tube? for posting the Acoustic Tales
link;
listening to it reminded me how great those Oranges and Lemons songs
are. I often feel that album is the ?one that got away,? and would benefit
greatly from less fussy production. In the book Song Stories, Andy is said
to commend producer Paul Fox for being sensitive. The book explains
further that, in truth, Fox indulged Partridge?s every idea with exacting
detail ? and it shows. Hearing those 6 O&L songs stripped down to 2
acoustics and a 12-string uncovers their compositional beauty in a way
I?ve never experienced.
Truthfully, I feel the same way about Mummer and The Big
Express, but for a different reason. With a few exceptions (e.g. ?Love on
a Farmboy?s Wages,?) those albums suffer in hindsight from dated
sounds, i.e.: cheesy synths and drum machines. Attention today?s
hitmakers: If you want your album to sound old in 5 years, bow to the
gimmicks du jour (low-fi and electronica bleep mavens note.) It's a shame
because, of course, under that production are great songs.
Listening to Acoustic Tales also brings Wasp Star to mind;
many of the WS songs are much simpler than the O&L batch (e.g.:
?Stupidly Happy;? ?Boarded Up;? ?I?m the Man Who Murdered Love;?
?Wounded Horse.?) Judging from the demos, the production will be sparse
and strong, which means the album should hold up well. I?m not saying
one is better than the other ? it?s like comparing oranges and lemons ?
but a little simplicity never hurts.
Cheers,
F.A.

Hi, This is my first time to this list which I've been reading and enjoying for the last six months ( I'm from Argentina, 34 year's old and big fan for XTC since the early eighties). Only one thing to say: Thank you, Todd. I believe you earned me a lot of worrying, asking me why I didn't catch along with Pet Sounds ( I finally had it by Christmas, after years of promising me I would get into the album which featured the original version of God Only Knows, that got Mc Cartney wanting to make Sargeant Pepper's and that inspired some of XTC's greatest stuff). I will try a bit more, but I think Pale and Precious will remain my favourite " Beach Boys's" song. Having also enjoyed the recent lists, this is my modest contribution: - Apple Venus I: The more I listen to it, the more it grows in my affection. At first I thought this would be something complementary to XTC's main stuff. Now I'm starting to believe AV I it's one of the band's best records. - Peter Townshend, The Best Of: Having heard very little of Ray Davies, this has been my english composing reference. - Adriana Varela, Cuando El Rio Suena: Local tango singer, here mixing classical tango songs with modern murga and candombe. - Stevie Wonder, Talking Book: recently acquired; great, great music. Thank you all and excuse any english mistake I make, Saludos, Sebastian.

Kinks content: Los Angeles-area Hillers/Kultists will want to check out a gig this Saturday (April 8)by the Well-Respected Men, a Kinks cover band featuring Brian Kassan of Chewy Marble. They're playing at 9:30 at the Hound and Fox pub in Studio City, Ventura Blvd. just west of Vineland. Admission is free. XTC content: I don't know about the rest of you, but the wildly-divergent early reviews of WS on this list (and others) only INCREASES my anticipation. Unqualified raves from everyone would almost have been predictable, but now that we've got people who seem to hate the disc, I REALLY can't wait to hear it myself! Drew

I've heard of it, but never had a chance to see it till now. My favorite misprint is listing Andy as the author of Nigel. And thanks to the many Chalkies who wrote to tell me what a Catherine's Wheel is. The consensus so far is that it is a word for a spinning wheel type of....*Firework* Now, it is possible to postulate that Andy wanted to "sort of" name Apple Venus after a lyric from Nonsuch by using the term Firework instead of Catherine's Wheel, in the same way Wasp Star is another name for Venus. Like a clue for us to follow up on. Somehow I have this shady feeling that even naming a pinwheel firecracker got its name (well, in the UK and Australia and NZ, apparently) from something else, like mythology or the Bible (well, those are the same thing, I know). Is it like a Jacob's ladder, or something from a story? Who was Catherine, anyway? Jim "are you reeling in the ears?" Smart

So, I love all the varied opinions being discussed about "Wasp Star" since my initial posting last week. Obviously I'm both disappointed and incredulous at those who don't find the album exhilarating, but to each his own. I hope it grows on them and I can't wait to hear the demos (PLEASE release another "Homespun" for Vol. 2) to see what I missed. I thoroughly enjoyed Jim Smart's review and agree with him on most all points. One thing that I did yesterday was to make a cassette for my car (I don't want to replace the original stereo in my '83 280ZX) of my faves from Volumes 1 & 2, and they compliment each other so well that it makes them all sound even better (again, the demos may have been all mixed up anyway so this may not be anything new to some of you). The tracks fall out like this: "Playground", "I'd Like That", "You and the Clouds", "Easter Theatre", "Stupidly Happy", "River of Orchids", "Your Dictionary" (the demo from "Homespun"), "Wounded Horse", "Harvest Festival" and ends with "The Wheel and the Maypole". Then, just for fun, I filled up side 2 of the tape with miscellaneous favorites: "Grass", "Are You Receiving Me?", "It's Nearly Africa", "Rocket from a Bottle", "Mayor of Simpleton", "Blame the Weather" (God, I love that song and can't believe it was only a B-side), "Wrapped in Grey", "Earn Enough for Us", "Don't Lose Your Temper", "Roads Girdle the Globe (the live BBC Radio version), "Love on a Farmboy's Wages" (I wanted to put "Scarecrow People" here but didn't have time) and closed it all with "Snowman". All in all it's a fabulous tape. And great news about "The Man who Murdered Love" being the first radio single. Like I said, it was my initial favorite song and I'm glad it's going to hit the airwaves. Again, I just hope the lunatic fringe don't capture it as another reason to blame all the youth gun violence on the arts. It's called IRONY folks; look it up. As always, thanks for listening!

This will allow all of us to approach the material fresh. I don't know, I just kind of feel left out of the loop here. I'd like to approach the material fresh without any preconceived notions about "being disappointed with the material." I always have approached each release without any preconceptions. I'm just happy that they're releasing another album so soon and hope they can keep up the pace because of the backlogged wealth they accumulated during their time off. OK, so I'm being cranky! When I heard AV1 was going to be released I didn't listen to the demos for quite some time so that I might approach it with a fresher point of view. It ain't worth much, but that's my opinion on the matter. Wayne
