Sinister: Rock on Tommy.
by ben ferneyhough 01 Oct '97

Sat here at work, idling my time away listening to tinpot Radio 1, and then Jo Whiley plays the new B&S single 'Le Pastie...'. It's a beauty. She then went on to say she'd heard a tape of some songs they'd done, and they have a bright future ahead of them if they wanted it. Also told the 'nation' that '3, 6, 9 seconds of light' was single of the week in both Melody Maker and NME. Not bad that eh ? I'm happier at work now. Ben. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

"rocket usa" by SUICIDE [Keith Watson] Odd that as I thought of that when posting a list of comedy covers a while back. I think it's probably Alan Vega's voice that I thought might come across quite amusing. Keith. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

RE: Sinister: Tigermilk again and again.
by Keith Watson 01 Oct '97

couple of comments about it... First of all, has anyone noticed that the beginning of She's Just a Baby is right from the beginning of Yes' Yours is no Disgrace? Funny, eh? The melodies on Tigermilk are really intensely [Keith Watson] Yes - I posted this on the list in the first week - and someone else said they'd noticed too. I'm amazed that anyone had heard the song! I find it more weird that "Lonliness of the middle distance runner" sounds like "It's only love" by Bryan Adams and Tina Turner. Cheers, Keith ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

Re: Sinister: mishearings

I have to admit that I hear "midget" rather than "major" when I listen ... even tho' I know it's wrong. I think it would be wonderful to turn on the radio and hear B&S -- as long as they weren't on "heavy rotation" so that you hear them so much you hate them -- familiarity breeding contempt and all. The only show to play them in the NY area is the Vin Scelsa "Idiot's Delight" show on WNEW-FM (102.7), Sunday nights from 9:00 to 3ish. Although the station is "classic rock" during the rest of the week, Vin's show is an example of what radio could be. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
