Melburnians just can't get enough of Kylie's new single,
called WHAT KIND OF FOOL (HEARD ALL THAT BEFORE).  On the
FOX-FM (101.9 FM) listener run countdown, Kylie's song
is at number 2 (i.e. the second most requested song in
Melbourne!).  And what is at number 1 tonight (Wednesday)?
The Red Hot Chili Peppers with BREAKING THE GIRL.
Just watch tomorrow night as Kylie breaks the RHCP's reign
at number one, and storms to number one herself!

Note that Kylie's album, GREATEST HITS, hits Australia
record stores on Monday 12th October.  Looks like a
debut at #1 on the Aussie albums charts that week for
Kylie!

UNcool facts about the peppers:

- well, actually the thing that ISNT their fault is that heaps of young
Aussie bands seem to clone their style (ditto Nirvana) i.e. funky slap
bass (Nirvana hard guitar), which is inherently uncreative (not the style,

GET A LIFE, PAUL!!!!

Kylie did crash into #37 first week in, and is likely to do better.

This has to be the best singer she's released since "If You Were With
Me Now".

I must say, I am humbled.  That was simultaneously brilliant and destructive...

BTW, wasn't _Loveless_ the legendary Valentines album where they strummed their

recreate that sound...and I love it.  Anyway, if indie was popular, I'd be
listening to something else...!  (At least I can laugh at myself.)

Should give Wipe() a mention in that they have one of those CDEP thingies out

Hi All,
	Having heard selected tracks off the new H&C album off JJJ, I must
say I am not really impressed at all. I presume JJJ are playing better songs
off the album, and of the two I have heard so far I am not impressed. The
really lack that zest and energy of recordings up to We The People.
	I will probably go out on Monday and purchase it, but I have
serious doubts on the musical quality of the album. It sounds like the
band couldn't agree on the "new direction" (TM), and judging from the 
article in Rolling Stone, I'd say that some of the band don't like it at all.

Anyway, this is just my initial thoughts, it might grow on me.

So what is it with all these people bagging talented artists? First Kylie and now this. Don't these people recognise talent when they see it, like all the million of people that buy the albums?! Some people just wouldn't know talent
if they fell into a vat of it and turned into Dannii Minogue.

I think Mr Remmer might have something to say about this.               

I vote for ELO being the worst although Derby does have a point about the bargain bins.

Rumour has it that in a pathetic attempt to save the local music industry,
legislation will be passed guaranteeing that no recordings will be imported
into Australia.  Just great.  Does this mean that those of us into the
alternative and experimental music from overseas will be faced with musical
starvation?  What about Australian bands that we can only get on import due to
the general gutlessness of the Australian Music Industry?

One of the problems with Phil Collins is that not only does he make horrible
albums of his own and with Genesis, but he goes and makes a mess of other peoples
albums too. A major example of this is Eric Clapton. Phil Collins production of 
some of his albums made him the boring Clapton of taoday (though he does seem to be
coming out of that somewhat!) Phil Collins drumming is also soooo boring. Its 
enough to kill just about anybodys performance.

ELO on the other have thankfully disappeared but probably were one of the worst
of the worst. But dont forget the other major bores such as Steely Dan or
the Alan Parsons Project.

Still there are the new horrors such as Don Henley, Michael Bolton, Bryan Adams..

It is a slightly remixed re-release, as all the songs on the ABBA -
Gold Album are.

Accoring to an interview one of the ABBA members gave, the songs have
been digitally remixed to make them sound a bit fresher and more
modern (a bit less bass, a little more treble, he said). I have not
heard the remixes yet and thus do not know if the average music
consumer will notice the changes.

But if you are looking for a *real* remix of Dancing Queen, I stronly
recommend the version of ABBACADABRA. It's a dance floor version of
the ABBA original, but the original character of the song is very well
preserved (voices, instruments). I absolutely like it. (Unlike
Erasure's unfortunate Abba-esque remakes.)

Since I am at it: Are there any other ABBACADABRA mixes out there? I
only found Dancing Queen on CD single yet.

The Joys were loud, very tight and professional and Suzie Higgie looks exactly

I was right up the back for Club Hoy (we arrived very late.) Beside me were

brickwork could afford Country Road. I've got nothing against exuberance, but
they could save it for shopping with Mum.

Why didn't you say hello?  I wondered where the Buzzcocks were playing,
since I hadn't seen any adverts.  :-) I doubt that Bughouse will mind.
I was surprised to find Ben Simons (come on down!) from Melbourne was at
Bughouse/Wipe() too, and again at the Sandringham.  Two of the Exploding
Daises were there too, but they're like early Club Hoy turned up to 11,
so I keep quiet about them.

The Verys are damn good considering they're still in single-figure gigs,
and they're good musicians.  They are Baz (g&v), Tim (g&v), Adrian (b)
and Greg (d).  They play, well, rock music.  Fairly loud, interesting
lyrics, sometimes a bit funky, fine rhythm section.  Well worth a listen,
I think.  Disclaimer: I'm friends with some of the band, and acquainted
with all of them.

OK, I'll see what I can do.  I don't know why you didn't say hello on

>Jamie - what's Kylie's guarantee? :-)

Allow me to answer for him, Brian.  Her guarantee consists of several parts:

	a) no instrument will be played live

	b) no spontaneous events are allowed to scare the sequencers

	c) the audience will LOVE the show, or will not be permitted to
		leave the venue

	d) all audience members will purchase one album or single of hers.
		Money will be provided for them to do so in cases of
		extreme hardship.

	e) the most talented member of the team will be the guy selling 
		t-shirts  (it's not possible to script the transactions)

I'm not sure if this covers all bases.  (Bugger hiding my snobbery...give me
loads of abuse and I will ignore ALL OF IT, chart-head wankers)
