Correction! Change those dates by one week---later. So, Sinead's is the 22,

they have two albums, both very good.  stanley clarke on bass and copeland
on drums makes for an unreal rhythm section.  deborah holland is on vocals,
and she is indeed excellent.  steve howe guests for some little fills on
two songs.  

i never could figure out why they didn't make it bigger.  everyone i
have turned onto this band has really liked them.  such quality music,
and quite digestible for a wide audience.  must be the power of
marketing...

Well, no matter how awful it is, the important thing for Mr Bowie is that
it is a commercial success. A Cliff Richard/Paul McCartney-style middle aged
disco ditty burning up the charts one more time is what David needs if his
status as a "legend" is to be further strengthened. The last time he had a
Top 10 was in February'86 with "ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS" (it was good - I'm not
joking!).
 
> I don't think he's forgotten how to write good songs...Tin Machine I &

"Great" is too strong a word here, "decent" is closer to the truth. About half
of the TM I & II material would be acceptable as additional out-takes on
Rykodisc's re-released LPs "LOW," "'HEROES'" and "LODGER." But there is nothing
resembling a hit or a great song on any of them. Same goes for "NEVER LET ME
DOWN" (except the title track). "TONIGHT" was a potentially great album
destroyed by impatience, Bowie shouldn't have rushed it with only four new
songs to offer his fans. But at least he still knew how to write good -if
somewhat boring- pop songs at that point ("THIS IS NOT AMERICA," "ABSOLUTE
BEGINNERS").

Well . . . I've always thought that songs like "AMAZING" sound a lot like
the stuff he did on "LOW." Some of the faster, simpler tunes like "PRAYING
AT THE BUS STOP" are more like (pre-) Ziggy material such as "QUEEN BITCH."
Tin Machine is a great concept, all they need to do is write better songs
and other than Bowie fans will take notice. Until that happens, here are
the best songs they've done according to a reliable source (myself:-):

Baby Universal
One Shot
You Belong in Rock'n Roll
If There Was Something (Bryan Ferry)
Shopping For Girls
Tin Machine
Prisoner of Love

Amazing
Working Class Hero (I'm not joking!!)

  There has been a lot of bad feelings between the band and Epic Records
(thier label). I don't know if the sentiment went both ways, but Epic
repeatedly postponed the release of the album, and has (for now) no plans
of releasing it. I haven't gotten a chance to read the letter yet, but Dania
sent my friend a letter. From what my friend said (He and I both have talked 
to Dania and I know she has our address, so this isn't a bunch of BS) the
band has decided to leave Epic records and go to a new label. Whether this is
their own label or an already established label, I don't know. They are 
planning to put out a new album shortly. I'll try and get more info soon.

.......................................................................

I think you are correct. Sugar Hill Gang was definitely the first
to hit it big with rap. Whether or not they were the first to sample
is probably debatible. Most likely all the DJ's used other people's
music. Other artists were Grandmaster Flash, Spoonie Gee, even
Kurtis Blow. GF and SG were both on the Sugar Hill label.

So Yes. I've heard there was rap in '74 and '75 in NY disco's. It
was cool that the DJ was the most prominent member of the band
in the early days - the orchestrator  - much like a big band or jazz leader
I suppose. Somebody solely with the music, but doesn't sing.

What made this show was this Band, and from what I can tell it sounds
like the same show I saw here at Mansfield, Ma. That's a dissappointing
thought, because the talent and potential of this 'steely dan' ensemble
is gigantic. Zingg to me sounded a lot more like Larry Carlton than skunk.
It is a pleasure to hear Dan tunes from the original folks( and not
some cheep barroom tribute band) but with huge success of this band during
the DISCO years I would have hoped for more explicit attitude! This is
not a complaint, but an observation..to hear Josie, My Old School, and
Pretzel Logic in better than perfect renditions is a worthwhile experience.
I did miss "Groovin'" (from the album). These guys should team up with
Ringo and his club! :)

I live in an apartment building. The walls are relatively thick, this

To further complicate this matter, these jerks move out in two weeks,
this is a great thing after two weeks, but until then it's non-stop
party. I don't want to crank up my music mega loud because I hate mega
loud music and I don't want to upset my neighbours.

I've tried bouncing a basketball LOUDLY, taking a hammer and hammering
LOUDLY (sometimes for 15 minutes at a time), and it doesn't do
any good. And yes I tried talking to them as well, but that didn't
do any good as well -- they're total jerks.

So, what I ask of you fine patrons of rec.music.misc is for ideas
