i heard a song on the radio a while back, and some of the lyrics went like 
this:

" ... and the sound of the Jackson Five    
  Will help to keep the spirit alive."

there was a long instrumental after this, but before the lyrics quoted 
there were references to Marvin Gaye and Otis Redding.  the vocalist was 
not quite rapping -- he had a smooth, easily understandable voice, 
something like Freedom Williams of C&C Music Factory.

cjfm radio tried to convince me that this was roxy music's "dancing away", 
but i later heard that song and no way can it be that.

i would prefer direct responses -- i am WAY behind in this newsgroup.  
thank you in advance.

I don't know who did this song, but I feel like it's early eighties stuff.
Reminds me of all those bands associated with Duran Duran (arcadia, kajagoogoo, etc.).  I'm pretty sure it was called "tarzan boy".

I know that I am nitpicking, but being the sugarcubes fanatic that I am I 
have to say "wrong"  :)  It *is* "Life's Too Good" and there is no song called
"Dog" on it. (Although there is "Cat")

>> Point me at the sky
This was released as a single.  Presumably there must be SOME copies
going around - price might be quite prohibitive though.  I have heard
2 versions of PMatS, one on a (boot?) CD called "The Embryo"
(manufactured by Swinging Pig records) which I believe is the BBC
recording.  The other version (quite a bit slower) is on a boot
entitled "Pink Floyd (Turn off the Light and Turn on the Dark)",
subtitle "nocturnal submission: robot love".  The latter has less
guitar (if I remember correctly) and its slowness makes it easier to
pick out the lyrics.  Tracks on the album are: Echoes, Point me at the
Sky, One of these Days, Atom Heart Mother, and Astronomy Domine.  AHM
is mono, all others stereo.  Record ID is TAKRL/1913

>> Embryo
"Works" album I guess.  Available on CD.  Again, it's possible to get
the BBC version on "The Embryo" album (see above).

No, the track list for "Masters of Rock" is Chapter 24/ Mathilda
Mother/ Arnold Layne/ Candy and a Current Bun/ The Scarecrow/ Apples

Play.  I bought my copy (LP not CD) about 2 years ago.

He also played on a novelty album I got years ago.  It was a Jimmy Thudpucker album, 
if you have never heard of him, don't be surprized.  Jimmy Thudpucker is the

contributing musician, along with Duck Dunn and Steve Cropper from Booker T. and the MG's and the Blues Brother's Band.

If you don't like the Spin Doctors, that's cool. I happen to think they
they are a great band with a great CD. They are accomplished musicians,
have some killer songs, and a real sense of humor. BTW, in case you
didn't know, their bass player is black (except his name, which is 
Mark White), but that's irrelevant. What is relevant is that he's
FUNKY AS SHIT!!!! You might have a different opinion of the band if you
went to one of their shows. They have a hell of a lot of fun (and you
will too), plus they're really nice guys.

Greetings:

A recent snippet on Much Music revealed that there is a various artists
sing Joni Mitchell material coming out soon in Canada.  This is similar
to the Bruce Cockburn release last year that launched the Barenaked
Ladies career.

Anyway, there was a mention that Martha and the Muffins were going to 
performing on it.  Although they have not released anything in recent
years, I did not know whether they were disbanded or not.  The fact that
they are using the original name and not M+M suggests that this is some
sort of a reunion.  

Does anyone happen to know more about this, or what they have released 
in recent times?  "The World is a Ball" or something like that was the 
last item I recall having seen.

Further, I managed to pick up the pseudo compilation "Far Away in Time"
on disc, but I would really be interested in getting the complete
"This is the Ice Age", "Danseparc" or "Mystery Walk" on disc (or whether 
it even exists).  

They release compilations by April Wine to Luba, Stampeders to Red Rider, 
so where is an M+M, Martha and the Muffins release?

Thanks in advance

Trent

PS> Someone else has mentioned that a local Vancouver radio station has
    played a Martha and the Muffins track called Sunset or Sunrise but
    has only heard it once.  Maybe this is from the Mitchell album?

     My kids love it too.  :(  Oh well, I guess I can't expect them to be
major Dylan fans at 6 and 10 years of age.  Anyway, the song is called
"Mairzy Doats," and it was an ENORMOUSLY popular song in its day, which was
in the 30s or 40s, probably the 40s.  It was recorded by several different
artists, none of whom I can name, and it sold a hell of a lot of copies, as
a record and in sheet music form.  I have no idea who wrote it. 

     There is a second verse, and probably a third.  When I visit my
parents tomorrow I might ask them if they remember how it goes, in case you
still care.  :)
