Your were lucky, it seems that this set is becoming almost impossible to
acquire.  Compact Disc Connection is no longer able to supply it.  If anyone
knows where I can get a set, I sure would like to know.

It is in pub/incoming/databases

It is a self extracting archive which blows up into a 2 meg file.

   If there's any Tori fans out there, be sure and get this single if you can.
 It's the "Winter" single, comes in a Digipak, has a picture of Tori on a big
horse on the front.  The front cover of mine says "Limited Edition CD5 Maxi
Single".  Anyway, it's about 22 minutes long, and contains the following
songs: "Winter", "The Pool", "Take to the Sky", "Sweet Dreams", and "Upside
Down".  Lemme tell ya, the "Crucified" EP was NOTHING compared to this.  Even
though it was nice to be able to understand the words to "Smells Like Teen
Spirit", the "Winter" single is infinitely better than that whole EP, and
costs half as much.  "The Pool" is a nice instrumental/vocal but with no
words, just Tori's voice floating around on top of the instruments.  "Take to
the Sky" and "Sweet Dreams" are both happy little tunes with a good beat and
great vocals.  "Upside Down" is really unexplainable, but the song it reminds
me of on "Little Earthquakes" is "Mother".  There was a little sticker on the
plastic wrap when I bought it that said "INCLUDED: LYRIC SHEET HANDWRITTEN BY
TORI AMOS!", which means that she wrote the original and they photocopied it -
don't expect to find like her autograph or anything in it, it's just like any
other lyrics sheet (although this is the first one I've ever seen in a Digipak
CD single).  In closing, this single is redically cool, and a definite
must-have for Tori fans.  I can't wait for a new album (if there will ever be
one) given this latest sample of her work.

   Sure do.  There were (at least) 2 single CDs released by Enigma, one for
"Sadeness" and one for "Mea Culpa".  Both are 20-25 minutes, and contain 4
mixes of the song plus a 5th song, both of which are more in the vein of the
"chants" that were very popular in "Sadeness".  Those songs are: on "Sadeness
Part I", "Introit: Benedicta sit sancta Trinifas" with Gabrieli Consort and
Paul McCreesh listed as authors/performers; on "Mea Culpa Part II",
"Communion: O sacrum comvivium a 5: Andrea Gabrieli 1565", the label continues
with Gabrieli Consort/Paul McCreesh as authors/performers, and says "From the
Virgin Classics release: A Venetian Coronation 1595" then gives an album
number.  Both singles CDs are great, I especially like the "Violent U.S. Mix"
of "Sadeness Part I".  As a last note, both CDs are in Digipaks, like many
singles now.

This disc has been recalled due to improper indexing.  The first second or
so of each song gets chopped off when you attempt to cue to a specific

they'll replace the recalls, though I haven't received the promised

I recently acquired the Aretha Franklin `Queen of Soul' box

tracks.

I am curious to know whether anybody (or everybody) else has
encountered the same thing.

The glitch occurs on the left channel at 2:20 into track 8
(`I Take What I Want') on disc 2.

The competition is a rip-off. They supply a list of dealers who are taking
part of which the nearest one to me is Swansea, I think. This is thus
discrimination against the geographically disadvantaged rural areas! It's
that small-minded London mentality again.... ;-)

More to the point, I'm sick of Q linking up with hifi manufacturers to push
their products in the faces of the readers. How can they now honestly
print unbiased comparisons of DCC and MiniDisc?

I heard on the radio the other day that the Nails' album this song is on, _Mood

out soon on CD.

Great song, and a better album overall!  It's worth picking up the vinyl copy

Someone on the net posted the contents a few months ago.  You might be
able to find it--I think it was in this newsgroup.

The "song" is basically an expose on the band's tour through South
America and some of the crap that they had to put up with.  It's
interesting, yet pointless.

I think that the original poster also included the instructions for
getting the message.

There are two Raymond Scott collections out there.  There's one called
_Powerhouse_, on Stash Records, that was released earlier than the
Columbia one.  Dunno which one is better.

You're right, it does sound kind of funky, but I think I know why.

Peter Gabriel used a sampling technique not unlike those found on Paul
Simon's Graceland and Rhythm of the Saints.  It involves travelling
around the world with a boombox (a nice boombox) and taping native
drummers (usually of African or South American descent).  Then those
tapes are brought back to the studio and incorporated into the songs.

So the cruddy sound quality has nothing to do with a disk defect or
anything like that.  It just has to do with this new way of "recording."

I got this song on an import of "DJ Culture" and "Music for Boys" that
came out sometime in 1991.  It came in a paper sleeve, kinda like a vinyl
single.

This was the work that was played as the opening to the "Performance"
tour in 1991.  As its name suggests, it truly was an overture, since it
contained bits and pieces of the show you were about to see.

Unfortunately, I was unable to see what was going on the stage at this
time, since I was in line getting drinks at the Universal Amphitheater
snack bar, so I could only listen.  I bought the single when I saw it
solely for "Overture."

Subject: Classical Music Club

I would like to find out if a club that deals primarily with classical music
exists. I am already familiar with the Musical Heritage Society, Columbia, and
BMG. I am looking for an outfit that has better/wider selections.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks.
