Please...  It was examines in committee (probably even sub-committee).

This is not by any means, the floor of the highest legislative body in the
land. 


Agreed on all other points though.

Because "everything by Pink Floyd" wasn't a "concept" album.  They didn't

did "dark side of the moon".

   I don't know how long it's been going on, but Sting often incorporates
a lyric from a previous album into the current one; ie: "Every move you 
make..." from Syncronicity was qouted again in Dream of the Blue Turtles, 
and something from this album was quoted in Nothing Like the Sun, etc. 
I'm not a huge Sting fan, so I couldn't tell you if he means for this to
be some running theme, but maybe someone else can. 

   I am, however, a huge Zappa fan, and I know that there is a 
"Conceptual Continuity" that links all 60 of his albums (not including the
recent "Beat the Boots" series). But what it is exactly, I cannot say. 
I pretty much understand it, but it's one of those things that you have
to figure out yourself. It wouldn't be any fun for you if I just blurted
it out, now would it?

Personally, most of the most recent Prefab Sprout seemed a little
overly heavy with items that could be quite easily interpreted

things that sound suspiciously preachy to be annoying.

I much prefer the confessional style of _Two Wheels Good_.

  Not quite, some people *EXPECT* their local record stores to

    Cuomo is my number one choice for any political office *ANYWHERE*
    He is brilliant.

 2. Clinton is pro choice.

 3. Al Gore is his running mate and he's environmentally and technologically 
    progressive.

   The group in question here, I believe, is Infectious Grooves. I believe the
song is called "Therapy". It's off their one and only album _The Groove That
Makes Your Booty Move...It's The Infectious Grooves_. The band consists of
people from other bands, including Mike Muir, the vocalist for Suicidal
Tendencies, and the drummer from Jane's Addiction. I think Rocky George from
Suicidal Tendencies also plays on a track or two. The album is another take
on the Punk/Funk theme. A little more Funk, and the Punk is a little closer
to Suicidal Tendencies than, say, Minor Threat. They also do a lot of
George Clintonesque monologue/storyline type things throughout the album.
Take a listen, if you get a chance!

The song is "Laugh and walk away".  As far as I know, it was their second hit

This last song can presumaly be found on the album "Shirts" ('78-ish).

There's a domestic CD5 promo single out with at least five mixes, probably
more.  I didn't like any of the reworks much -- most of them abandoned

For all of you looking for lyrics, I stumbled across the following in
the newsgroup alt.internet.services. It comes from the weekly (bi-weekly?)
posting of telnet/FTP/listserver services around the world:

 -Lyric/Music Server    ftp cs.uwp.edu
                        ftp ftp.iastate.edu (/pub/lyrics)
   offers: Lyrics, chords/tablature, and music pictures. (/pub/music/...)



This is located at my university (didn't know about it until last week) and
from the look of it, it is *vast*. It took my humble 2400 baud Macintosh
almost 10 minutes to scroll through the directory of all the artists.
Dylan, the Dead, and Springsteen, are among those artists whose lyrics
are posted on the iastate FTP server.

Anyway, I hope this helps. I realize that a lot of people tune into
rec.music.dylan asking for on-line lyrics -- not realizing that (a) a
complete (up to 1984, at least) book of lyrics is available and that
(b) these two servers provide a lot of on-line, ASCII lyrics.

BTW, is there a FAQ list for rec.music.dylan? As I say, I see frequent
questions regarding lyric requests. I'm not one who's particularly
bothered by "wasting bandwith" and other such (IMHO) inane complaints,
but it might be nice if all us regulars might think about putting something
together that might contain the typical FAQs -- a discography, some
brief, succinct reviews of each album, how to get certain concerts not
released legitimately, etc. etc. -- and post the
thing on a bi-weekly (once a month, perhaps?) fashion. I'd be interested
in doing this -- with generous input from others, if possible. I'll
be off the net for about a month starting next week -- but I'd
be willing to spearhead such an effort toward the end of August once
I get re-established. I know, for example, that Olof has those wonderful
statistical year-by-year reports of Dylan's setlists, etc. etc. -- and
those would be a great part of any FAQ list.


Anyone else have any opinions? And BTW: what's the FTP address for
the Dylan archives? I think Olof's lists are located there, as well as
some of John Howells's reviews. Anybody know?

A few weeks ago I spotted him on TV on Blue Peter (a children's TV programme

an article about improvising music and it featured the London Musicians'
Collective who Lol plays with. I've only ever seen him live once - that was
in Edinburgh many years ago but he seemed like a really nice guy - he came
