Organization: Telecom Research Labs, Melbourne, Australia

I recently requested any information that was available about Ingrid
Chavez. Here is a summary about what I found out:

--
Prince supposedly found her singing in a bar in Minnieapolis. 
She did the "rain is wet, sugar is sweet..." intro to the album Lovesexy.
The track "jadestone" from her album was used as an intro to the Lovesexy
tour of europe ~1989.

She had a single and a video called "Elephant Box" a couple of years ago.
There was also a 2 12" promotional set released with eight remixes of
the the song "Elephant Box" in a custom gatefold cover. There is probably a
CD equivalent. 

She released an album, "Ingrid Chavez", on Prince' Paisley Park label,
catalogue number 4/2-25879 (US). Production is credited to "Paisley Park,"
which supposedly could be Prince. It was followed by a followup single (what
else? :-)  )

Little is known about her except that she has worked with Prince. Ingrid
Chavez married David Sylvian in May 1992. He contributed lead vocals to 
Ryuichi Sakamoto's recent single "Heartbeat", Ingrid providing whispered
backing vox.

4-7 weeks ago I heard a song several times on the radio (KDBK/KDBQ,
98.9/99.1, San Francisco/San Jose/Santa Cruz).  I didn't catch the name
of the song or artist.  It's been on my mind: I want to figure out what
it is and buy the album.  I've tried several local record stores as well
as the station.  By the time I got to the station they'd disposed of the
play log from those days and nobody there seemed to have a clue what I
was talking about.

The remembered lyrics are part of the refrain and go:

  I try to separate ...
  I try to separate
  My body from my mind

The singer is a male tenor with a slightly droning, monotonish delivery
akin to Elvis Costello or R.E.M.

From this pitiful description, can anyone tell me the name of the song,
artist, and album?

Thanks much.

PS: this just in!  I just reached a different person at KDBK.  She
thought the song I was looking for was "Somebody to Shove" by "Soul
Asylum".  Unfortunately she would not play it for me since she'd played
it two hours ago!  She also didn't sound very sure.  Can anyone confirm?
Name the album?  Thanks again...

Subject: Kuffs - 2 Questions (possible spoiler but not really)
Date: 10 Jan 93 23:48:19 GMT
Organization: Keele University, England


I have two questions about the film Kuffs starring Christian Slater

1. What is the music playing in the church scene when Brad (his brother)
gets shot ?

2. In the cinema release of Kuffs there were subtitles for when Slater
has his mouth bound with tape and he is next to a bomb that is due to
explode. However, the subtitles were not present in the video version
(in the UK at least), and I thought at first I had a duff copy but two
of my friends saw it on video and they saw no subtitles either. 
   For the most part the word he tries to get out is 'BOMB' but he also
says things like 'I didn't think things were going to end this way'.
Then Thunder the dog barks. Slater says 'Neither did Thunder!'. All of
this is lost without the subtitles. Can anybody give me a transcript of
this bit or the address of Entertainment In Video who distribute the
film in the UK?

The band is Shadowy Men On A Shadowy Planet.  The song is "Having An Average
Weekend".  The album is _Savvy Showstoppers_ (on Cargo Records).  See them

Actually, for most people the area is better described as near Van Nuys and
Ventura Blvd. The Moby Disc and the Tower are on Ventura (as is the Tower
clearance store, across the street from Tower...). Record Surplus in on 
Van Nuys about a block from Ventura.

Moby Disc is OK. Once upon a time (say, late '70's-early '80's), they
were one of the best used record stores. Now they're rather generic,
with relatively unspectacular prices and an indifferent staff.
There are several locations around LA.

The Record Surplus you mention is a lot smaller than the one downtown,
but sometimes has interesting stuff. Their vinyl prices (remember vinyl)
tend to be very reasonable, with some downright steals mixed in.
The people who work at Record Surplus are also very knowledgable and
helpful (and often working musicians).


Tower is Tower, not much to add. But the budget store can sometimes
yield treasures, if you're willing to look hard enough. Last time I
was there, I picked up a rare copy of the single from Matthew Sweet's 1986
album with a non-LP b-side for a dime.

It's listing in the closing credits, I think it's Shadowy Men of a
Shadowy Planet or similar.  It might very well be the Kids themselves,
it's not a very complicated song and they seem to have some skills
with musical instruments (okay, they're not masters, but hey).

Emmylou Harris, Roseanne Cash, Dionne Warwick, Mary Chapin Carpenter and a

"Till their eyes shine (The Lullaby Album)"  I'm wondering if anyone has

ok, the smiths "how soon is now" first appeared on a 12 inch record
 as a b-side, and is now recognized as the #1 "alternative"
 song of all time.

whitney houston's "saving all my love for you" (i think that's the
 one- the 4th song on her debut album) was a b-side to one
 of her singles, and later became a #1 in its own right.

new order's "1963" is a song which is a very good song, and has
 appeared in those "top 300" alternative charts.

what other b-sides are there that have achieved some sort of fame?

rick you're damn right. Magic and Loss is the THE album of the year

Clapton who has done nothing original since (er...memory fails).

you might like to know that Channel 4 (uk) showed the entire live video

On the contrary, another song that has (in the past) shown up at the top of
the "#1 alternative" listings (or, at least, at the top of John Peel's Festive
Fifty) was also a B-side - the B-side of the Factory US release of the Joy
Division "She's Lost Control" 12" - "Atmosphere".

[ One could easily spin off a huge thread on "Very good B-sides", but I'm    ]
[ sticking to Bob's desire for those "that have achieved some sort of fame". ]

On the other hand, ever notice how those stations/publications that do those
"Top 300" alternative charts never play/cover anything *really* alternative?

No, no, no...  you're thinking of _A_dult _C_ontemporary (AC), the latest 
craze, which can also be thought of as "rock lite", with 1/3 less distortion
on the electric guitars than your "regular" AOR music :-)
