Sinister: Seymour Again
by Neil Hargreaves 14 Oct '97

14 Oct '97

I've only heard the Seymour Stein about twice but I'm sure I can remember some lyrics about 'flying home alone' and it being kind of sad. So I thought (especicially with the alliterative name) he was fictional but based on a real guy. Now I know he's real I was thinking maybe Stuart just had some brief meetings with the guy, liked the name and used him as a sort of template or something. just a thought... cheers, neil PS Maybe if he'd heard of Lenny Waronker he could have used that too...They both sound the names you would pick if you wanted to create a fictional record label boss. -------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Re: Sinister: Favourite track
by Chris Leonard 14 Oct '97

My favourite just now is Beautiful. I especially like the bits about her being mental and trying her hand at pornography and the pretty tune. And what's more this is the first CD I've ever bought. I just got my first ever CD player, you see. I feel like a vinyl traitor. The CD Single only cost 1.99. Is this normal? Seems very reasonable. Who liked John Denver? I did. "Leaving On a Jet Plane" is my kareoke piece. Jeff Buckley and John Denver in the one year. bummer. Chris ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

I have to say that I rather agree with the Duke on this issue. 'Beautiful' is the one for me, for now. I think it's also worth noting that the covers seem to be becoming more and more like indie pop covers from years back. Am I talking rubbish or do youi good folk know what I'm on about?

Sinister: See More
by P. Miller / A. Ubieta 14 Oct '97

Seymour Stein is listed as one of the collaborators for the sleeve art of Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds! Well I never! He also rejected the second album by Brian Wilson and Eugene Landy (psychiatrist to the stars), "Sweet Insanity", thus depriving the world of the chance to hear Brian's hardcore rap song, "Smart Girls". Insiders say that it gives Vanilla Ice a run for his money. Stein is also associated with someone called Lenny Waronker. I'm glad the subject of Seymour Stein has come up again, because I've been doing my homework since the last time. I've got more Seymour facts, but I'll keep them for next time. My favourite song on the new EP is "Beautiful". And I think this record is the best they've done so far, music, lyrics, little story, cover photo, the lot. I'm glad to see we have a (part-time) heavy metal fan on the list. What do your heavy metal mates think of Belle and Sebastian? Poofters, I bet.

Sinister: 3..6............9
by Chris Stack 13 Oct '97

got the new EP today, well who didn't? then noticed the 7" was only 99p so got that aswell. Then noticed LLPJ had rocketed in price by 3 whole pounds (why?) so thought I'd better get 3..6..9 on all formats before it rockets aswell and I regret it later. I've never done that before. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .
