If anyone has the new Severed Heads EP would they mind posting
a review on it? Sevheads is one of the best Australian bands
for those who don't know...

Check out Retread CD, Bulkhead LP/CD and Cuisine CD.
All are great!

P.S. it's industrial/dance/alternative music, made with synths
and tape loops only. Not as hard as NIN, not as soft as DM or NO.

Different songs! Flack reached #30 in 1973 (US-Billboard Hot 100) with a song
called "Jesse". Carly Simon hit #11 in 1980 with a completely different song
(I'm sure they're different-I have both original 45's)
of the samer title. And to really confuse the issue...Julian Lennon hit #54
in 1985 with yet another different song with the same title.

And then there's "Jessie's Girl" (Rick Springfield #1,1981), "Jesse Brady"
(McCoys #98, 1968) and "Jessica" (Allman Brothers #65, 1974). 

Simon's hit is mentioned in several music-biz books as a notorious example
of a payoff-created "airplay hit". ie, enough stations were payed to play 
it to get it up the charts, but virtually no one was buying it.

Dunno for sure what they intended when they wrote it (and proponents

Billy Joel: sometimes a fantasy from Glass Houses, as mentioned previously,
contains touch tone sounds at the beginning. I remember hearing it was his
manager's phone number, and that some people played with their phones until
they got the number and starting phoning him.

AC/DC: Dirty Deeds has the line "Just right 362 436 - hey" and some couple
in Australia (362 4368) sued the band or something. They said that it was the
measurements of their favourite woman: 36 24 36 hey!

I've noticed in the middle of Neil Young's Mansion On the Hill there are
touch tones buried in the song...anyone else heard this?

TEARS (from the album 2112)

all of the seasons and all of the days
all of the reasons why I've felt this way
so long
so long

then lost in that feeling, I looked in your eyes
I noticed emotion, and that you had cried
for me
I can see

what would touch me deeper
tears that fall from eyes that only cry
would it touch you deeper
than tears that fall from eyes
that know why

a lifetime of questions, tears on your cheek
I tasted the answers, and my body is weak
for you
the truth

what would touch me deeper
tears that fall from eyes that only cry
would it touch you deeper
than tears that fall from eyes
that know why

------------------------------------------------------

Wow!  I can't believe I did that from memory after all these years!
I hope I haven't screwed up these lyrics... but I'm glad I did
this, 'cause now I have that song running through my head.

Cheers,

-Eric

Well, I can't tell you their complete discography, but a couple of years back I
worked in the studio where the Ride EP was recorded, in their home town of
Oxford. They couldn't play their instruments and didn't really know what they
were doing business-wise, but they had a manager with all the right contacts and
now Ride are a point of reference in the musical vocabulary up there with the
greats. They take far too many drugs for their own good but somehow they've
risen above The Scene that created them, and slowly drift in a sea a guitar
white noise around the world, dreaming away.

Sorry, that doesn't answer your question at all, but I haven't got time to write
any more now.

>So, any word on some US dates (he asks expecting a negative answer)...
>-Eric Bidstrup

Once again, there are three:

August 15, 16   The Cabaret, San Jose

They're also playing in a club in San Raphael sometime this week (Aug 13th?)

That's it.

--------------

The opening show in San Rafael, CA was excellent!  Two one-hour sets, the
first a 'retrospective' of all the earlier albums, the second performing
the complete "Dust and Dreams." Including the encores, the only album they
didn't play a single tune from was "Stationary Traveler."

I was told by someone who talked to the band during the sound check that they
had tried to book a couple of shows in southern california, but couldn't
find any place that wanted them.  Andy has indicated that after they get
done with Europe, they would *like* to play some dates in the US.  So, if
all you Camel fans out there REALLY want them to tour in your area, you need 
to make some vigorous noise to your local clubs and booking agencies.  If
not, they won't be asked to go anywhere and it will be all your own faults.

Also, for you fanatics, Andy Latimer has released an "official" live CD,
of a concert performance from 1972.  Four tracks - Lady Fantasy, Never Let Go,
Six Ate, and God of Light.  44 minutes plus!  Available by mail, but I don't 
have the address with me; I'll post it next week...

And, wouldnt'cha know, yet *more* about this new Xymox....  Today I got
a hold of the *CD* single, which is Completely Different (well, almost).

		Dream On
		Dream On (remix)
		Soul Free

The remix is the techno-thing I reviewed in the earlier article.  I had
wondered about the style of the "real" version, and now I know.  It sounds
a lot like a "Phoenix"-era single, and the song itself reminded me in a
couple of places of "Michelle", off "Medusa".

The *big* difference is that all of the fuzzy-guitar noises of the remix
are instead played by real (or, at least, real-sounding) guitars, some
piano parts have been added, and the whole thing is considerably cleaned
up.

"Soul Free" is a fairly disposable track, also recent-vintage Xymox.  Not
terribly spectacular, but definitely not techno.

All in all, this is more like what I expected.  Still certainly not even
close in quality to the "old" Xymox, but an OK modern-rock, dance-type
record that I don't mind owning.

So, then we have a choice in ratings:

	Xymox, "Dream On" / "Soul Free" (CD single)	5 goose bumps
	Xymox, "Dream On (remix)" / "XDD" (12" vinyl)	3 goose bumps

"Jesse" was recorded by Roberta Flack in 1973 on the album "kiilin me softly",
I don't however know whether this was a cover or the original recording.

I'm pretty sure "Jesse" is on "Come Upstairs".  And by the way,
"Jesse" doesn't have an "i", and Carly doesn't have an "e".

Before any speculations get going, I'd be willing to bet large sums of
money that it's definitely about James Taylor.  (Jesse...James, get it?)
Which is a little weird, since her kids sing back-up on it.  The Sally she
mentions in the song is her daughter.
