The Spinners were (still are?) a folk group, the Detroit Spinners were
the US Blues group.

Is the current Skid Row Brit or US? Shouldn't they be the *New* Skid
Row anyway.

Got the radio on - that wasn't the Red Hot Chilly Peppers was it?

Have you heard the PWEI song "Can U Dig It"?

where there's a guy that sings "can you dig it?"

the same line appears in the 25th of may, on their album,
 lenin and mccarthy.

can anyone tell me where this originally came from?

btw, i REALLY like the 25th of may's album.  "it's all right",
 "crackdown", and "answer back" are my favourite trakcs.

Subject: Rub Songs
Date: 13 Aug 92 23:25:37 GMT

A friend of mine taught me this game: take any song title with the word "love"
in it, and substitute the word "rub".  (Alternatively, take any song title with
the word "mind" in it, and substitute "brain".)

A few examples (using a list by lkoh@cdc017.austin.ibm.com)...

    Rub Shack -- B52's
    Rub Hurts -- Everly Brothers
    Rub Me Do -- The Beatles                     
    Rub Me Tender -- Elvis Presley                   
    Rub to Rub You Baby -- Donna Summer  
    Tainted Rub -- Gloria Jones
    Sea of Rub -- Phil Phillips
    Soldier of Rub -- Arthur Alexander
    Addicted to Rub -- Robert Palmer
    How Deep Is Your Rub -- Bee Gees
    Gimme Some Rubbin' -- Spencer Davis Group
    You've Lost that Rubbing Feeling  -- Righteous Brothers
    Torn Between Two Rubbers -- ?

And of course,

    You Were on My Brain -- We Five
    Gentle on My Brain -- Glen Campbell
    Suspicious Brains -- Elvis Presley

Now, PLEASE, don't post your lists here.  This is a *conversational* game to
be played with other people, in person.

All Bonzo fans take note:

EMI has just released a 3CD compilation of virtually all of their recorded
material.

Disk 1: The Intro, contains Gorilla and The Doughnut In Granny's Greenhouse
Disk 2: The Outro, contains Tadpoles and Keynsham
Disk 3: Dog Ends, contains some rare singles, the reunion album Let's Make
Up and Be Friendly, and some solo material.

This collection is a must for any Bonzo's fan.

I picked up my copy of Q recently, and saw an ad for the brittania
music club.  I have a bunch of questions about the club...mind you,
 I've been in the U.S. music clubs (BMG, Columbia), and have the
 following questions...

1) What's a "double play"?  Blondie's greatest hits (European - not
 American), which i have is listed as a double play - it's a single
 disc.  The Beatles' White Album, a double disc, is also listed as
 a double play.

2) What are their "regular prices" on discs?  How much postage do they
 charge per disc?

3) If you buy 6 discs, which will fulfill the club, all at once,
 will they allow it?  and how much does it cost?

any other tips about the club would be appreciated.  i'm assuming
 they don't ship oveseas, so i'd be doing this through someone

I have heard the same interview.  The Steely Dan song they are "nodding"
to is "Everything You Did" from 1976's "The Royal Scam".

The line is:

"Turn up the Eagles, the neighbors are listening."

In the interview, Henley talks about how he likes Steely Dan and how
really they were over everyone's head in the 1970's.

For myself I thought (on casual listening) the Dan were a kictchy sex-lyrics
band with some egotistical studio musicians.  However, about 7 years ago
I realized they are talented musicians with great insights into the California
lifestyle (like "Hotel California") and parodied it with both their lyrics
and musical imagery.  That is why Henley (and *I*!!!!) appreciates them so much.
Steely Dan's satires of California life was one factor in the Eagles inspiration
to do Hotel California.

Additional trivia of course is that both the Eagles and Steely Dan had the
same manager -- Irving Azoff, who has since been a former pres. of MCA
records and now has his own label Giant Records.

Here's another one: KIT WATKINS - "My Telephone" from the "Frames of Mind"
album has telephone tones throughout the entire song, and features two
answering machines talking to one another....
"Thank you for Calling"..."Thank you for Dialing" etc. etc.

No, I think it's by Suzanne Vega, called something like "Coffee Shop"
or something plain like that...  a remake was done where she was
teamed with some rappers who gave it a dance beat I believe.

I need some help.

I need two pieces for my community choir here in Cambridge, Ontario, which
are only available in Britain.  I know this might be an imposition, but the
cost of getting these pieces quickly is astronomical, and otherwise I'd have
to wait for months.

I need someone who is either going to Britain or is already there.  I would
be willing to pay for any trouble, the music, postage, everything.  Anyone
willing to help out a needy choir director?
