Temple of the Dog is (as far as I know) a team-up of Pearl Jam and 
Soundgarden.  Neither of these groups would be "Nirvana wanna-be's",
not that Nirvana is bad, but "Seattle-sound" bands don't sound
anything alike (imo) other than the fact that the ones that tend
to be in question (such as Nirvana, Soundgarden, and Pearl Jam)
are all generally heavy, and have powerful sounding and/or raspy
sounding vocalists.

One big problem with the above. The ~ $8 per disk is what the record
companies >sell< the CDs to the dealers for. These are the record companies
themselves selling the disks. The best estimates that I've seen place the
actual cost-per-disk to the record companies at just about $1/disk not
counting artist and publishings take. (Artist take varies widely, with
these new multi million $ contracts giving the artists $1-$2 a disk, but
most artists don't make NEARLY that.)  Then, they are selling them at just
about what the dealers sell them for (not counting the sign-up specials and
the 2-fer deals, etc....) Don't feel too sorry for them....

Even if they did have the $8 starting price, at a better than 50% markup,
they should still have no problem making a profit, catalogs or no. This is
mail order, not retail.

Date: 14 Sep 92 16:11:00 GMT

Organization: Advanced Micro Devices, Austin TX.

Some time last year a friend played a Too Much Joy album for me
and now I'm a huge fan.  I have all three of their albums and love
them all.  However, no radio station in Austin or Houston has
heard of them at all, and neither have any of my friends.
Since they have three CDs out, they must have some wide base of
support somewhere, and I'm trying to figure out where that is.
Can anyone tell me what areas of the country TMJ is popular in?

Also, in the credits in the "Son of Sam I Am" album, TMJ writes
that they would like to thank some people that they left out
in their previous album.  I thought that "Son of Sam I Am" was
their first album.  Does anyone know of an album, single, or EP
before "Son of Sam I Am"? 

Thanks,

Sting and Andy are bothing working on new solo albums, 
accoring to the Police mailing list.

Stewart is doing something -- we can only hope something besides

That's right. The band also include Jane Relf who, IMHO as an outstanding voice.
The album they recorded which is available on CD [ Line is the company;I haven't
heard the CD] is incredible, and is very similar to the next version of [early]
Renaissance with Annie Haslam. The lineup on the first album later reformed
as Illusion. I have found "Out of the Mist" on vinyl but haven't seen it on CD.
This album is fantastic and if you come across it, I recommend picking it up.
Its also classically oriented with a lot of piano solos and Jane's beautiful 
vocals. There is another Illusion album but I have yet to find it. The band
also resurfaced as Stairway and again, I have yet to locate a copy.

Last year, I posted the following question but no one knew: Whatever happened
to Jane Relf and is she on any other albums ?

They have ceased to be. They are an ex-pop group. The Kemps are still into
the acting thang, and Tony Hadley put out a solo album (which was utterly
shredded by the critics) earlier this year. The compilation earlier this
year was due to the renewed popularity of "True" following it's use in that
PM Dawn song, and not to any forthcoming resurgence of activity by the
band.

While listening to "Bloodletting" by Concrete Blonde (really really
good disc, by the way), it occured to me that there are a lot of really
cool songs about vampires.  However, now I can only think of a few:

	Concrete Blonde: Bloodletting
	Warren Zevon: Werewolves of London
	Sting: Moon Over Bourbon Street
	(forget the artist): Lost Boys (from the movie The Lost Boys)

Now I know there are some real obvious ones I'm forgetting, and I'm sure
there's some other cool songs I haven't even heard about vampires and
the like.  (please no flames from the alt.dress.in.black.read.anne.rice.and.
order.expensive.custom.fangs.from.your.goofy.dentist group about the
difference between werewolves and vampires...you get the idea).
Please e-mail any songs you can think of to as081@cleveland.freenet.edu
I'll post results in a week or two for anyone interested.  Thanx.

I was just listening to the "Final Ripoff" Monty Pythyon double album
the other night and I caught the reference.  I thought it was kinda
cool.  I can look up the track if anyone is really interested.

I picked up "fear" in a local department store after seeing Toad on
the David Letterman show.  I was impressed by the sound of their
vocals.  A live singles CD was part of the deal, the two CD packages
were scotched taped together and priced at $13.00.  Given that this
store normally sells CD's for list price, and I was bored for some new
tunes, I grabbed it.

A friend bumped into Diamanda Galas in San Francisco yesterday. She's
been in town this week recording for the soundtrack to a new film of
Bram Stoker's Dracula (I think by Francis Coppola?). 

Also saw an interview with Tom Waits about his new lp, and he mentions his work
on this film, acting the part of Renfield. He describes it a bit - "... I was
put in a mental institution and I habven't been able to drink real blood for 
a long time, so I built kind of a ladder of life out of vermin and lower 
insect creatures. And I eat them. A little blood at a time. A little blood 
here, a little blood there. It's a drug problem. My whole role takes place in
a cell like in a madhouse, like in Bedlam. I haven't seen it, but I had a
good time doing it. I was wearing a straightjacket that made me look like
a mealworm, screaming in Rumanian and being hosed down in the cell. It was
great. I loved it, I really loved it."  - BAM MAGAZINE 9/4/92

sugar is still rather pop-ish.  the new sugar album is a bit more
"aggressive" than mould's solo albums, and i *guess* that makes it
more husker du-like, although it is nowhere near that raw.  in fact,
if it had simply been another mould solo album, i would not have been
surprised.  it is a good album, but then i really like bob mould.
don't expect husker du.  expect mould in the same vein as his solo
stuff and expect him to be the overwhelming force in the band.

as for a rating, b+.  good stuff, but not stunning.  worth getting.
