I just bought their new album, and the address for the fan club is New
York.  A magazine I have around somewhere says that a couple of them
are from Oregon, one is from Australia, but they operate out of NY
now.

Sorry if this is the wrong type of music, but anyway...

I just want to say that TMBG's Apollo 18 album is great!

Are their other albums just as good?

BTW, what is that Musical Ambassadors to ISY all about?
Where'd they get that title from?

SST was started by Black Flag/Gone/October Faction/etc. guitarist Greg
Ginn. Not sure of the date, but the first Black Flag release was SSt's
first release if I'm not mistaken. (SST didn't buy BF's catalogue; they
were on SST all along.)

they were also talking about New York City.

Well, it's pretty goo, but really short (19 minutes for 9 songs).  The
best song on it is the same one on the Erectus Polvotone split single,
slightly re-recorded.  And nothing on it ranks up with Vertigogo for
pure pop gtr Carolina fun.  The CD is in kind of an Honor Role rut (I
like Honor Role, but it can be hard to do those songs right, if you know
what I mean).  So tape it if possible, and get the first single on Merge
- I like it a ton better.

Subject line says it all. Lately, I've been constantly listening to two
absolutely fantastic albums: _Headsparks_ by Seam and _Hit to Death in the
Future Head_ by the Flaming Lips.

While I don't doubt there are folks out there who are listening to both these
records, I do wonder -- there's not been much discussion about either one. I
consider both to be terrific; they're not too similar in form or content, but
as music goes, well, wow.

_Headsparks_, if you're at all a fan of Superchunk, Sebadoh, etc, should not
be missed -- not so much that it sounds like the above, but is in a familiar
vein. Does anyone have a discography? I have two 7" and the lp, but that's it.
What about lyrics?

The Flaming Lips album, on the other hand, is like Sonic Youth -- with all
the energy, half the seriousness, and twice the mindblow factor. This is the   
first work of theirs I've heard -- can I get any recommendations? A friend of
mine told me that _HTDITFH_ is their most even recording. Discog? Lyrics?

If you haven't listened to these two albums, do yourself a favor and pick
them up. Seam is on Homestead, and the Flaming Lips new one is on Warner.

    Bad news. The release date has been pushed back to
Sept. 1, so you'll have to wait another week.
   I don't know anything about tour dates, but I'd definitely
be interested in finding out. I saw them out here in Palo Alto,
and they're a really fun band live. Everyone should definitely
check out their show.

	Holy Shit!!!  Please!!  New Age Music is just as diverse as
alternative music.  Just like there is alternative music that sucks,
there is New Age music that sucks!  Try listening to Micheal Hedges,
and then try to call it Muzak.  Ask any guitarist that has studied 
his music at all, and he/she will confirm that there is nobody more
talented.  Pick up any list on the 25 top guitarists of all time,
he's on it.  Honestly, listening to his songs, you cannot believe
there is not 2 other guitarists playing with him, he plays most songs
with _no_ overdubbs!!!.  Anyone got an opinion on Micheal Hedges'

No offense, but...

No no no!  "Toy Cows" is NOT actually "Caribbean Blue" by Enya.  Totally
different.  TOTALLY.

So, we still need an answer to the "Toy Cows" question.  What is the song?
Who is the artist?  What is the recording on which it is available (if any)?

I am also a big fan of the Ramones, have all their albums, and many 
collectibles from the UK not available in the US.  I have seen them 
several times, and listen to them about 80% of the time, meaning 80%
of what I listen to is them.

Several people have said their favorite album is Ramones, and I agree 
it changed a lot of things and got music going in more exciting direction
again, but I can't say it's my favorite of their albums.  I really like 
Pleasant Dreams, Animal Boy, Halfway to Sanity.  Even now, I can't really 
narrow it down to one--I like EVERYTHING they have done, and can't wait 
for the new album and (hopefully) tour dates.

Also, in response to some other comments made, I don't think the Ramones
have ever covered a Kinks song, though they do do a lot of covers (at 
least one per album).  And don't think that Blondie stopped being good
when Gary Valentine (the first bassist) left the band.  I would say they
got better in many ways.

This has been done on vinyl. Little Roger and the Goosebumps put out a single
back in the '70s called....ta da "Stairway to Gilligan's Island". It featured
the music of STH with the lyrics of GI. I don't recall that it "fit perfectly

jumped *all* over poor Little Roger and they quickly withdrew the single under
threat of massive legal retaliation. But the burning question is: did Jimmy
Page prefer Ginger or Mary Ann?...
