  In a way there is a film score trilogy too now.  I don't know what
the release status on either the film or the score to 'Anima Mundi' is,
but I was fortunate enough to see this film this summer at a film
festival.  The reason why you could argue there is a trilogy is because
this film is the third film in the Glass/Reggio cooperation, but who
says it will stop here?  'Anima Mundi' is not quite feature lenght
though.

I don't think that Dudley's point was that everyone is compelled to like
rap, but rather that people who complain about it do so in terms very
reminiscent of the complaints conservative, suburban parents of the
50s and 60s made about rock-n-roll.

    I picked up the new collection while in the UK a few weeks ago.  It's
    called, _Art of Noise, The FON Mixes_, presumably because most of the
    tracks were mixed at FON Studios.  However, potential buyer beware.
    This collection was not produced by Anne Dudley and crew, and takes
    an incredible amount of liberty with the tracks.  Definately not an
    Art of Noise production.

    I'm sorry I don't have any information on whether or not the new
    club track is off this release or not, but _The FON Mixes_ is the
    latest that is available in England.

The Violent Femmes have gone through quite some changes in their sound.
Their first album, 'Violent Femmes' introduced their trademark playful and
danceable acoustic sounds. You surely have heard songs from that one. 
'Add it up', 'Blister in the sun', 'Kiss off', 'Prove my love' are VERY
popular songs. They then became darker and added more instruments (was it the 
horns of dilemma?) in their second release 'Hallowed Ground', which is my 
favorite. Then they tried to make it big with 'The blind leading the naked'
which was produced by someone from the Talking Heads, included a Bolan
cover ('Children of the revolution') but lacked focus. They took a long break 
after this flopped, and came out with '3', which was a return to the
playfulness of their first album. I saw them on that tour, and the whole
show was a party! They played all sorts of instruments including a seashell! :)
Their last album (which includes the song you mentioned) seems to be a 
rehash of their old sound. I don't know more about it because I didn't buy it.

The Bobs are a San Francisco Bay Area (Berkeley, actually) based noveau-
a-capella quartet.  (This means that they don't use any instruments--their
music is entirely vocal.)  Unlike most other a capella groups, the Bobs
aren't afraid to apply their voices to all types of music, from funk to blues
to rock and roll.  The results are amazing, and often hilariously funny.

If you believe that his drive for the homeless is a publicity stunt, that's fine. I'm not going to change your mind. BUT, that still does not say that your acquaintences reflect what AMerica thinks about music. Up here, I know next to nobody who doesn't like a little of his music, at least. That doesn't mean that I tink the whole world loves his music. You can't judge what America thinks just on your own little niche. If record sales prove that someone is popular, whether or not the music has quality (Guns


 'N Posers sells a whole lot), that group is well liked. That's all there is to it.

The Hummingbirds have a second album "Va Va Voom", as good if not
better than "loveBUZZ".

The new material from the people in the Go-Betweens isn't power pop
that I'd noticed, though I could be wrong about the upcoming Cleopatra
Wong album from Amanda Brown & Lindy Morrison.  Their live set isn't
what I'd call power pop, anyway.

Paul Kelly and the Messengers have parted ways.  The last thing you get
is "Hidden Things", a collection of B sides and unreleased stuff.
Still good, though.  I head that Paul Kelly had gone back to Adelaide,
contrary to the song he wrote about that city.

I'd like to add a few more Australian bands of that ilk to David's
list.  Find 'em or weep:

Bughouse "Every Fool In Town" (Ursula)
Clouds "Penny Century" (Red Eye)
Falling Joys "Wish List" & "Psychohum" (Volition, Nettwerk)
Fear Of Falling "Welcome To WonderLand" (Phantom)
Underground Lovers "Underground Lovers" (Shock)

Then there are the more obscure bands like The Barbarellas, Glovebox,
Templebears, Swordfish, and Glide.

Agreed!  "Spirits In The Meterial World" is good too.  And for a little
humor check out "On Any Other Day".  And for a good jam,
"Truth Hits Everybody".  All The Police albums have great songs.

I still have to pick up another copy of "Ghost In The Machine"....

Subject: Quadraphonic: Rare alternative versions of songs

Date: Wed, 8 Apr 1992 21:59:27 GMT

Anyone out there collect, or at least own, any quadraphonic albums.
Anyone but me, of course. But I have a little of everything... :-)

To make these quadraphonic albums, they had to go back to the
original master tapes and do significant remixing. In the process,
different versions of songs were sometimes used, or songs were 
noticably altered.

What brought this to mind is a quad copy of Janis Ian's "Between the
Lines" that I picked up a while ago. There are a few places in the song
"In the Winter" where it is VERY obvious that Ian dubbed in a different
vocal. There are a few other places where minor differences occur.

The Sly Stone greatest hits album is well-known to contain several songs
in true stereo that were never (before this album) available in stereo.
Though in the liner notes to one of the recent Columbia Artyfacts series
CD's, it's claimed that the stereo on this quad album was solely the
product of the guy who remixed the tapes for quad, not of the original
producer or Sly.

Not that I've heard these albums in quad. Good thing the quad albums
are stereo compatible.

Some other quad goodies that I've accumualted: A quad 8-track of John
Lennon's "Imagine" (I've never seen a vinyl counterpart, and I don't have
a quad 8-track player...) and a special quad demonstration album released
in the mid '70's that has one side devoted to each of the competing
quad technologies (there were four). It's probably the only place you
can find Pink Floyd's "Money" mixed for each of these quad systems.

You're right, "Bottom Line" was released by Cypress/A&M.  "New World" however
was a full studio album (not a soundtrack) and was released by Gold Castle.
Both releases are out-of-print.

   I've been reading about starting mailing lists and have for quite some
 time looking for a Doors mailing list.  Is anyone outthere willing to start
 one??  If not, I'd love to read a alt.music.doors!!  If neither of these are
 possiblities, does anyone know how to join the Doors Fan Club or how to get
 a subscription to the Doors Quarterly ??
