I haven't heard it yet, but would very much like to.  Please post comments.
"Peggy Suicide" is an album I bought sound unheard on the basis of a review
in San Francisco Weekly (I don't usually do that!).  I think it is a
brilliant album, only a song or two I don't care for, and even those I can
appreciate.

Thanks for the lyrics, whatta blast from the past. Chris sat here
and sang them all without looking and I only needed to prompt
him once.

Kate Bush said in an interview that this was her favorite song when
she was a child. I'm not suprised.

The usual preferred way to write to a performer is either through his (in
this case) management team or his record label. 

I'm thinking Bolton is on Columbia Records, in which case the label's
address is Columbia Records, 51 W 52 Street, New York NY. (I'm getting
this off the Momentary Lapse of Reason cassette liner, which does not give
a zip code). 

In any event, an address should be printed on the liner to one of his
recordings, or possibly both. Check there.

Most performers of Bolton's stature don't let their home addresses out. 

Hope this aims you in the right direction.

Well, I went back and listened to some of John's later music after
making the "overblown, synth-dominated" statement.  Specifically,
I listened to parts of "Grace and Danger" (1980, with Phil
Collins as producer) and "Piece by Piece" (1986, with John Martyn
as producer).  The Collins album is as bad as I remembered.  
The self-produced album, on the other hand, has some nice moments,
and at least approximates the wonderful folk music that John was
creating in the late sixties and early seventies.  It's not "Solid
Air," but it's a far sight better than the bombastic stuff on the
earlier album.  

So, based on limited evidence, I'm inclined to agree with you.  
Martyn's voice is a wonderful instrument, but it works best when
the arrangements are spare, and when all the subtleties and nuances
of his phrasing can be brought out.  "Grace and Danger" is "Abacab"
all over again, but without even the slightly redeeming catchy hooks.  
Phil did no one any favors, least of all John Martyn.

I am sad to announce that Dave Baggett has succumbed to the ballistic
condition; if only he had taken his own advice and read about USENET.
Here is an excerpt from "A Primer on How to Work With the USENET Community",
by Chuq Von Rospach (easily found in news.announce.newusers).

		      Use Mail, Don't Post a Follow-up

  One of the biggest problems we have on the network is that when someone
  asks a question, many people send out identical answers.  When this
  happens, dozens of identical answers pour through the net.  Mail your
  answer to the person and suggest that they summarize to the network.  This
  way the net will only see a single copy of the answers, no matter how many
  people answer the question.

  If you post a question, please remind people to send you the answers by
  mail and at least offer to summarize them to the network.

      Read All Follow-ups and Don't Repeat What Has Already Been Said

  Before you submit a follow-up to a message, read the rest of the messages
  in the newsgroup to see whether someone has already said what you want to
  say.  If someone has, don't repeat it.

OK kids, let's try to all follow along here.  Ray hinted at the
same idiotic misunderstanding of Usenet in his brilliant and
thought-provoking email to me.

Usenet posts don't always arrive at YOUR site at the same time they
arrive at OTHER sites.  These complicated techincal things called
"propagation delays" cause this WEIRD, HARD-TO-UNDERSTAND behavior.

I see you all did NOT take my advice to go read about Usenet in
news.announce.newusers.  Beneath you, I guess.  Pity.

And while we're one the subject of Usenet basics, let's go over, once
again, the Ray Fan Club's *favorite* topic: net.etiqutte.  Personally,
I fail to see how a two-word followup could warrant such a nasty
response.  But then, this is rec.music.misc we're talking about.  The
group where people dump on other people to feel better about
themselves!

You guys just kill me.  Why don't you all get together and beat up some
freshmen again?  We'll all be REAL IMPRESSED to see you grind those
defenseless Rush weenies under your heels again!  Better yet, run a
vote to change the name of YOUR group to rec.music.misc.high-school.bullies.
It would be SO much more appropriate.

Even better, brag about the breadth of your musical knowledge!  We're
in such awe!

Seize, boy!  Sieze!  Good boy.  Play dead.

Because, Dave (can I call you Dave?), you seem immeasurably thick-headed.
The whole point is to see how riled everyone can get you.  Unfortunately,
you seem to rile fairly easy, thus forcing the Fan Club to think up whole
new wings for the Bait Hall of Fame: shortest, longest, non-sequiturist
(which is related, obviously, to the the see-if-you-can-get-Dave-mad-by-

subdivision).

Golly, now after several thousand lines of bull shit, we finally see an
answer to the original question...and to top it off, the original
poster had to answer it because Dave has been too busy waving his "Down

turns toasting him.  (Hey, sooner or later, somebody was gonna mention
Nazi's, right!?!)
Do you guys realize how tired your fellow netters are of this childish
bantering? What started it last time...the poor sap who forgot to say,
"IMHO" when he posted a top ten list?  FER CHRIST SAKES, STOP IT!!! 

Look, Dave... Ray and his cronies don't "own" the net any more than you
or I, nor do they have any supernatural powers that will subject
readers to their will, yet you rise to their flame bait every time as
if is some sort of personal crusade against some imaginary evil.  I

and leave it at that...if they dangle flame bait, leave it alone.  If
you can't leave it alone, than slug it out through e-mail or take it to

What the hell is that suppose to mean????  Huh??  I mean really....
Since you seem so misinformed about jazz and race let me help just a little.

Dave Bruebeck - a legend.
Joe Zaiwanul(sp?) - Weather Report, Miles Davis.
Chick Corea - Miles Davis (?), his own project.
Steve Bailey - session bassist, plays with Dizzy Gilespie.
Jimmy Haslip - bassist for the YellowJackets.

If you haven't picked up the common trait behind all of these individuals is
that they are white.  If you really must know!!!!  
 
The "some famous jazz guy" you so carelessly  refer to is Stanley Clarke!!!!
I don't know exactly who played in James' Band but that "Bootsy" guy you
refer to is Bootsy Collins.    Next time you hear or see the video "Groove Is In The
Heart" by Dee-Lite that "Bootsy" guy is playing bass!!!!  

I for one am just really sick of this!!!!  I felt in necessary to respond to 
you Malcom because of the perceived tone of your post!!!!  

I would like to see an end to this talk of race and who plays what!!!  It is
totally irrelevant - TOTALLY!!!!  Whoever started this thread I just have
one question?

WHY???

Danny Wilson's first album with Mary's prayer on it.

Hall and Oates live album with Ruffin and Kendricks.  I got it for the soul
tunes but loved the other side too.

Genesis Mama album, I loved pre-Duke Genesis, but have been ambivolent about the
more recent stuff.  I liked Man on the corner and Home by the sea, reminds 
me of the old Genesis.

Go West, I think that is the group's name.  Real poppy stuff, but it had a

Whitney Houston's first one.  Love that voice.

Thank you for the review. This kind of show have few chances to pass
the border. In fact to answer one of your question why they don't tour
together or simply make live performance like you saw, well it's not
exaclty the same crowd who likes Edgar style and Johnny's. I do like
them very much. I saw Edgar once and I could say that the people that
were there didn't have the same look than those that I saw at a
Johnny's show. Johnny seems to be attracting a lot of blues amateurs, a
lot of guitarists and a lot of old rockers. Each time he comes in
Montreal I've got a feeling of an Hell's Angel reunion. Anyway I've
always found the public in his shows to be very cool and loud to
applause. They do in fact play once in a while together around New York.

May be you were lucky to hear some of the first live performances
together following their new album together (nov 92).

2) Johnny is born 1945 february 23th, that makes him 47. He start very
young making recordings. I heard stuff from him at 16, hey look out,
that's quite good and very inspired.

3) A very good question, i'would like to know. The only time I heard
other people (of this caliber) talk about Johnny was Mick Taylor. He
was very impressed by Johnny's natural blues. Well that doesn't answer
your question, may be he smell bad...

4) He plays other people stuff, that's one point. He's a house rocker,
not a hit maker. He's not good looking, you may laugh at it but that's
a point in the music industry. He was in fact well known in the 70's.
He did play the Montreal Forum in 69 I think. King Crimson was
opening. He use to play big crowd. Edgar music was at the time of the
major hit a little more commercial than let say a 10 minutes slide
improvisation over Dylan's Highway 61. 

A discussion could be start over Winter and Stevie Ray Vaughn. They
did play together at some occasion...BYE and thanks again. Anyone who
likes Johhny Winter can contact me to talk about bootlegs, trading
guitar lick, etc...
