Y' all,
        I have a question I forgot this morning...
        Yesterday evening I showered the dust off a record I hadn't been
listening to for quite a long time - "Reconciled", by _The Call_. I haven't
heard anything from them ever since (probably I have missed some releases).
Maybe some of you may know whether they're alive & kicking...

        Ciao,

 Nope...I didn't see the 2nd show. Can you give me some details on the
 differences?

 Also, I heard that 4 horsemen is a REAL hard song to play on the guitar...any
 truth to this...I don't know much about guitars myself.

Subject:      CD COSTS

I have recently maunufactured 1000 CD's for a Canadian Group, The Bird Sisters,
at a unit price of $1.75 plus printing costs and $200.00 for the glass master.
These are Canadian prices but they indicate to me that we(buyer) are getting
fleeced for cheap, available technology. I'm told by friends at Indi
Labels that on larger runs CD's are cheaper  to produce than tapes. A 45 minute
cost about a $0.91/unit plus printing and $100.00 for labeling and mastering.

What do you pay in the U.S. to manufacture CD's and tapes and who do you deal
with?

If your a buyer what are paying retail and where do shop?

Let me know and I'll post the results.

Thanx, Dave Teichroeb

Subject:      Dr. Demento/Kinko the Clown

    Speaking of Dr. Demento, I remembered a song I used to hear
either on the Dr Demento show or on WLS-FM from Chicago about ten
years ago (Steve Doll and Gary Meier's show on LS).  The song was
called "Kinko the Clown" and it was roughly based on the John Gacey
case in Chicago (Gacey, a neighborhood pedophile, used to dress up as
a clown until he was caught. He had murdered something like ten to
fifteen boys and young men).
    Here are the only lyrics I remember:

    "Kinko, Kinko, the kid loving clown
    If the kids would love him back, he'd never wear a frown. . . "
And
     "Jimmy Johnson ran away and didn't say goodbye
      Kinko went to look for him to help the FBI. . . "

   Anybody remember that song? What the hell is the rest of it?

 Many popular songs were written during the War Between the States, and since
 a lot of the folks who went West during this time were veterans of that war
 (especially Confederates), the songs went along with them.

 Aside from the obvious ones like "Dixie" (written by a Yankee, incidentally)
 or the bloodthirsty "Battle Hymn of the Republic", there were many songs from
 the war that remained popular for a long time, through the end of the century
 in any case.

 From the Rebel side, there's "The Girl I Left Behind Me", "Aura Lee" (y'all
 know this one better as "Love Me Tender"), "Bonnie Blue Flag", and "I'm A
 Good Old Rebel", among others. The North had "Marching Through Georgia",
 "Battle Cry Of Freedom", "Tenting Tonight", and a couple others whose names
 escape me.  In any case, there should be a gold mine of songs from the war
 available (check your local public library), and they all would have been
 very familiar to anyone going West in the 1870s.

It has some really great Christmas tunes like,  Bob and Doug
McKenzies 12 Days of Christmas, Cheech and Chong's Santa Claus and His

Subject:      brand loyalty

I have absolutely no quarrel with the original statement "the average
music buyer has no brand loyalty".  Still there are a few non-average
people out there, thankfully.

There is a list devoted to the 4AD label, 4AD-L@JHUVM.  Interestingly,
the label itself is not pleased with the existence of the list.  Not
being your average label, 4AD would prefer people consider their bands
individually rather than as part of a herd.

If one is careful in selecting which labels to invest your loyalty in,
you can be rewarded.  I'll buy *anything* on Ohr or Brain.  And I
buy anything on Sky, but I hold my nose while doing so. 8-)

And I expect I'll end up buying everything on Marco's TNR label,
except for the notorious 1992B release.

I'm still partial to Fish myself.  Marillion isn't the same band without him.
Listen to his two solo albums and it's obvious who had the talent in that band,
at least lyrically.  Funny thing: when I saw them the crowd responded much more
 favorably to old stuff.  It must really be depressing for the band. oh well.

	Actually, I've never been to a heavy metal concert, and I don't have any

the state that nearly elected David Duke governor, so the choice to stay away
wasn't too hard to make. I didn't hear about any racial incidents, but I can
ask some of my friends who did go if there were any black folks in attendance.
If there weren't... well, that might explain why I didn't hear about any racial

Subject:      Nirvana, Al, SiGdIcKs

Seems as the Nirvana boys are a bit surprised at their success,
  even exasperated. the Guitarist, Kurt i think, is a dyed in th'
  wool punk rocker, and their commercial success runs completely
  contrary to the punk band ethos - Play for the punks, and to
  piss somebody off whenever possible, NEVER for the corporations.
  Ah well,guess that makes him another bitchy, grouchy POP rock
  star.
  Incidentally, I wonder if they'll ever win back their punk status-
  they could do a third album equal to Bleach and loose a lot of the
  damned media hype - bleach was not for the faint of heart.
  Then again, who gives a fuck whether Nirvana does another album,
  It'll probably get so overplayed that nobody will want to hear
  it again for another twenty years.
  As said before I'm tired of Teen Spirit, got so bored that i
  learned how to play it (five chords F,Bb,G,C, and F,Bb,Ab for the
  bridge, pound it, pick it, chord and whak yer axe with a rake,
  oh well,whatever,nevermind) so I've heard so damned much of it
  to date that it's beginning to equate to Stairway to Freebird
  somwhere back in the dark and sticky corners of my mind.

Al's Smells Like Nirvana IS funny, he's got the sound down- like
  the gargle/trombone solo-the bartender turned up the sterio and
  everybody that could jumped up on a barstool to listen to the
  house speakers.  It was a riot the first time around, but like
  every good comedy routine, only good one time around.

thinking about the differences in David Lee Roth VH and Sammy Hagar
VH. I've never seen them in concert, but I wondered how much of the
"old" VH they do. Do they do any of the old stuff (1984 and earlier)?

I saw 'em at the Monsters Of Rock  show a couple years back. I think they did
 "Ain't Talkin' 'bout Love" and that is all I can remember...they did some of
 Sammy's old ones.

 THey might have done "Panama"

 Seeya,
 Gary

One of the best non-skipping CD players is the one by Alpine, pretty expensive
though. Still, you won't need that much non-skipping if you are not going to
drive on the moon (all those craters....yaak!).:-)  I own the typical SONY with
the 10-CD mag. Its been real nice to me in efficiency, audio and non-skipping.
Of course, a big bump will make a small skip but that we all avoid anyway for
our car's sake...;-)

If you ask me if I'd buy a Kenwood instead of the SONY, I'll answer NO without
hesitation. Why? Because SONY manufactures the CD changers for Kenwood, all the
inside of a KW CD chngr. is identical to the SONY. Only they put a nice Kenwood
cabinet and sell it much more expensive. :-) Now, those are not the only
 options,
you can always count on a great Denon, a not so great Pioneer (not bad at all
though), marantz (not good at all from what I've heard), etc.  Try asking for
more advice in USENET's rec.audio.car  Also ask about a good car alarm...I'd
suggest Alpine if you ask me...;-)
Have a nice one...
