I have just answered the duke's message (he offered the same thing) so maybe I'll see what comes of that first...? I don't know what other stuff you're into, so I suggest you name some bands or genres and I'll see if I can help you. I can't say I've got anything by the bands that are currently being mentioned in the group - I've never actually heard of them..... ;) from Holland ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: Felt records
by Ninette 29 Sep '97

29 Sep '97

Hiya! Not sure if I mailed this correctly so here I go again: Is there anyone out there who's got any Felt records in their collection? I heard a bit of one of their albums, and I'd love to hear more...... ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Re: Sinister: Lilac Time for B&S and more.

>Lilac Time are relatively hard to come by in the >U.S., since their entire catalogue has been deleted. i am in love with the lilac time. i think that "and love for all" and "paradise circus" are their best. i haven't really had a difficult time finding their albums in the US. they kind of just fall into my lap. there was a charity shop in my home town (suburb of san diego) at which i found several lilac time (and orange juice!) goodies. that amazed me because nobody back there has very good taste. the last time i was in norwich i found a "laundry" 7" for 50 pence. a couple months ago i found "welcome to hell, here's your accordion" at a flea market here in san francisco. the only thing i don't have is "astronauts." perhaps if you don't look very hard you'll find what you're looking for. and as for music i'd recommend, here you go: the smiths, nick drake, the divine comedy, patti smith, the sundays, the magnetic fields, al green, mary margaret o'hara, the jam, the beautiful south, the soundtrack from 'breakfast at tiffany's,' old bowie, teenage fanclub, roxy music, elvis costello, simon and garfunkel, the style council, the trashcan sinatras, weekend, talk talk, burt bacharach, aztec camera, petula clark, the beatles, mcalmont & butler, sandie shaw, jacques brel...the list goes on and on and on... what have i been listening to lately? belle and sebastian, por supuesto. OH! i don't know if the question was ever answered, but the book on the cover of lazy line painter jane is, _reason and reality_ by john polkinghome. it's easier to read on the 12". ta ta! :) michelle ps-oops. sent this to the wrong address originally. i wanted to add, though, that i do love scottish accents (this is in regards to that old thread), especially when scottish women speak. for instance, ruth from eastenders and bess from "breaking the waves." ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: Other groups and two questions
by Jean-Philippe Madelaine 29 Sep '97

29 Sep '97

Here are several french groups I can recommend : - Autour de Lucie, the both albums "L'échappée belle" et "Immobile" - Louise Attaque, fabulous - Tanger And a non french group i'm listening since friday evening when i bought it : The Verve : Urban hymns And now the questions : 1- When will 3,6,9 seconds of light be available ? 2- Why B&S is called B&S ? I knew a tv serie called B&S when i was a kid. Belle was a dog (a big one) and Sebastien a little boy. JPhilippe ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

After discovering Belle and Sebastian in April I went out and bought some Felt. Really liked their instrumentals a great deal. I think I have every CD now 'cept for "Primitive Painters". That title has eluded me. Other titles currently in the CD changer: Ivy "Apartment Life" Verve "Urban Hymns" Marc Bolan/T.Rex (numerous new reissues) (Edsel & Burning Airlines) Ghost (Drag City) Fuxa John Coltrane "Complete 1961 Village Vanguard" (Impulse) the Frogs "Starjob" (Scratchie) Pete ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: the name
by J Jackson 28 Sep '97

28 Sep '97

is it true that Belle And Sebastian are the main characters in Beauty and the Beast? is this not where the inspiration came for the band's name? why has Urban Hymns been released in other countries but not here until tomorrow! I wonder if Sainsburys will have it JJ x _______________________________________________________ Run away! Run away! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
