There's also the Ukranian's version of "Bigmouth Strikes Again" (sung
in Ukranian) which Goodier has been playing a fair bit of.

Just wanted to confirm the above.  Both the Pussywillows and Lulu's
versions of "The Boat That I Row" are by Neil and are *great*.  I'd
actually thought of submitting the song for the great B-sides thread.  I'm
not sure what the Pussywillows are up to at the moment but they show up on
The Rutles and Shonen Knife tribute records with "Hold My Hand" and "Twist
Barbie," respectively.  Their version of "Twist Barbie" is a virtual
replica of Shonen Knife's sans accent (although I think they're trying to
get that too).

Neil Diamond actually is/was a great songwriter, IMHO.  He just should
never have been allowed to record his own material.  Check out also The Ups
and Downs (Australian band, rather Church-like) version of "Solitary Man",
The Fizzbombs' "Cherry" (Am I remembering the title right?) and even UB40's
"Red, Red Wine", which I feel some fondness for.  Neil also wrote one of
the Monkees' big hits, but I can't remember which one now--"I'm A
Believer"?  Further info on good ND covers welcome.  Oh, one to be avoided
is Altered Images' version of "Song Sung Blue", which spoils what is
otherwise a pretty good album-- if you're into Claire Grogan's bubbly,
little girl vocals, that is. 

(Two last notes of trivia:  Claire plays the final "girl" in "Gregory's
Girl" and Talulah Gosh's "Talulah Gosh" is supposed to be about her--can't
remember the exact connection though. Anyone able to enlighten me?)

Opinions vary.  One of my roommates, for example, thinks that it's about

Ok, I know you guys say that Robert always says they're breaking up (and he did
this time too) but this time, it may be true.  All the other times he's said
that, it was either near the end of a long tour or there was discord among
certain members of the band.  But this time, he's enjoyed the tour and everyone
is still getting along.  They're breaking up because the other members want to
do other things.  Robert also said something to the effect of not wanting to be
like the Rolling Stones... you know, old men who think they can still put out
music.  I suspect this thing will turn out to be more of a break from the band
so maybe we'll see a new album 3-4 years from now.  Hell, it might even be with
a different line up.

I'm hoping they finish they're instrumental album (Dreams something or other)
before they go on hiatus.

Oh, and if you think they'll put out another album just for the money (or you
suspect they do anyways), turns out that they donate most of the money they
make to charity.

PIGFACE consist of people from groups like Ministry, Revolting cocks,PIL etc.
and it is not a group in itself. It is just a concept, and the people who 
participate are just individuals whol like to play together.
They have released three albums: GUB, Welcome to Mexico.....Asshole (a live-
album), and recently an album called FOOK. FOOK is also produced by
Albini. I don't know if he has anything to do with welcome to Mexico?!

I'd rate Fluid and Clawhammer as THE ABSOLUTE BEST Rock

they are much better then 'Rites', which I haven't listened to an awful lot
simply because I after the first 3, I just wasn't impressed, but maybe it takes
some getting used to.
  On the first album, all the songs are good, but my personal favorite is 'Kid
Fears', the one with M. Stipe.  On the second, 'Strange Fire', 'You Left it up
to Me', and 'Get Together' are my fav's.
  On a whole they have, although not the best voices I have ever heard, really
cool lyrics, and the harmonies that they create are incredible...

Well, Spiritualized is, as you probably know, Jason Pierce's band.  He was the
guitarist and sometime vocalist for Spacemen 3, the head hawncho being Sonic
Boom (whose real name escapes me right now, Peter something I think).  Sonic
Boom has formed Spectrum, whose album sounds less active and less reliant on
guitars than is Lazer Guided Melodies, though SB also played guitar for
Spacemen 3.  I guess you could assume that Spacemen 3 were somewhat of a cross
between them.  Their earlier songs tended to be long, on song taking up an
entire 12" I believe.  This is less so in their more recent stuff.  

cool fact:  these guys are marketing geniuses, they all have names that go
along with each other in record bins, though it is usually not too easy to find
their stuff in most (even "indie") stores.
