I'm not in L.A., but I read in our local paper that there is a new Virgin
Records Megastore that just opened in L.A.  It's supposed to have a huge
inventory.  You could call Information to get their phone number (which I
did once, to see if they would do mail-order -- they don't).

Then of course, there's the large Tower Records chain.

Sorry, don't know about jeans!

I see a lot of posting on Asia and John Wetton etc.  But what
has happened to Eddie Jobson, the violinst for UK and Jethro Tull?
I thought he was terrific, OK so I was a violinst at one time, but 
he had some great `chops'.  Does he have solo projects out?

Date: 4 Jan 93 22:02:17 GMT
Organization: UB


i post this query every once in a dog's age, in the vague hope that
someone on the other side of the atlantic can help me out...

does anybody out there know where i can secure a(n original?)
recording by a group called johnny and the self-abusers (circa 1978),
which is who jim kerr et al briefly were before some members of the
band went on to form simple minds?  

this is what i think i know:

1) they made only one recording 

2) jim kerr and charlie burchill were in the band

3) *just* before simple minds' "mandela day" was released in the late
eighties, a bootleg single was released under the band name "johnny
and the self abusers."  this was well after j & the s.a.'s broke up,
so i'm guessing that the release was an "inside joke."  the reason
that i (think i) know this is that a friend of mine argued with me for
weeks that "mandela day" was by a group called johnny and the
self-abusers, and said he had the vinyl to prove it. unfortunately,
he then lent out the disk, which was never to be seen again.  i don't
think he was pulling my leg...he wasn't smart enough to concoct that
kind of story ;-)


anyhow, if anyone knows where i can get *either* of these disks, or if
anyone has any valuable information, or if anyone wants  to sell to me
directly, please e-mail me.

thanks!

i think this disc came out in '91.  it contains tracks by local san
francisco folkie/hipsters like j.c. hopkins, chuck prophet, 
barbara manning, nancie de ross ..... as i rememeber half of
the disc was recorded live at the great american music hall and
the other half is studio stuff.  chilton does guatilamerika (title?)
and a hidden version of 'no sex'.  

i don't have the disc in front of me so i cant give you a listing right now.
but most of the players you've probably never heard of unless you're from
here.  


all in all its a good record, altho it helps to be familiar w/ the local
scene to fully appreciate the disc.

It might be "The Times You've Come" from the "For Everyman"
LP which is sung by him and Bonnie Raitt.  However, this isn't
really an older song - it was written by Jackson Browne....

I have two albums at home that are by The Graeme Edge Band featuring
Adrian Gurvitz.  The first is "Kick Off Your Muddy Boots" and the
other is "Paradise Ballroom."  They are from 1975 and 1977 respectively.
Graeme Edge is, of course, from the Moody Blues.  These albums were
recorded at the time (I believe) when the Moodies had temporarily stopped
recording as a group.  I was just wondering from the above post, was the
album also relea as being by the Baker Gu and the
Graeme Edge Band featuring Adrian Gurvitz?  By the way, the credits
include A. Gurvitz and P. Gurvitz.  Brothers?

Those who reply say this was the first time (i.e. it was written for

someone fill in the missing pieces from the spoken part at the

Organization: University of Illinois at Urbana
Date: Mon, 11 Jan 1993 21:55:17 GMT

A little more to the story... (I think based on a Rolling Stone story, 1989)

10,000 Maniacs, when making "In My Tribe", did not want to record
"Peace Train" but the folks at Elektra thought it was the perfect
way to get a hit for the Maniacs by having them sing a cover of a well
known song.  They resented having to record it as Elektra was saying 
that their own songs weren't perhaps good enough.  

So when the Rushdie thing came thing came along and the former Cat Stevens
did his thing, the Maniacs decided they had two reasons not to have the
song on the album, one convincing enough for the popularity and sales 
consious Elektra.

Personally, I think "Peace Train" regardless of who wrote it (and who they
turned into afterwards) is a wonderful song about idealism in the same
ball park as "Imagine" and "Morning Has Broken".  It is still uplifting to
the human spirit, and even though I may not like who Cat has become, 
I, artistically, would not have excluded it solely because of the Rushdie thing.

No, it's Shadowy Men etc.  The song itself is called something like "Having
an Average Weekend", and it's off an album called _Savvy Show-Stoppers_.  (Am I
right, someone?)  There's lots of neat little ditties on it.  

They're pretty much an instrumental band.  I saw them in London, Ontario, and
I seem to remember a few sung lines here and there.  Which weren't the most
pleasing to the ear, so I can see why they are an instrumental band.  (That was
a pretty fun concert.  People started stage-diving to "Run Chicken Run" until
the band asked them to stop.  If you've heard their music to any extent you'll
know it's not very stage-divable!)

Of course, this probably means that the original Geffen releases are
hopelessly out of print, unless they show up on the forthcoming box set.
Not all of them were out on CD anyway, I guess (I know "Trans" never
was, but "Life" and "Landing On Water" were).

Huh?  I thought the "Carl Stalling Project" CD consisted of
original Stalling recordings, not remakes a la "Stay Awake."
I've seen and heard the disc many times, but maybe my memory
is failing me.  Are you certain?????

P.S.: This should not be confused with the recently released
Raymond Scott CDs (one of which is called "The Raymond Scott
Project" to really confuse matters).  Scott's compositions
and themes were used in WB cartoons; Stalling actually worked
for Warner Bros. and was Musical Director for most of their
cartoons.
