Sinister: Tigermilk for sale.
by Ben Ferneyhough 09 Oct '98

09 Oct '98

Hello everyone. Just to calm everyones fears from the off, I'm not selling copies of Tigermilk, but a genuine VINYL version. My mate Paul phoned me last night and as he knows I'm on this list, he asked me to offer his copy of Tigermilk to you all. As seems to be the case with most of these sales, he's doing like an auction type thing, with it closing on October 31st. Well, if you are excited by the prospect of owning your own living breathing Tigermilk, then mail Paul on (and he DIDN'T choose this address !!): dr_sex2000(a)hotmail.com Hope you are all happy and having fun, Ben. __ _-==-=_,-. /--`' \_@-@.--</ `--'\ \ <___/. \ \\ " / >=\\_/`< ____ /= | \_| going going gone.... / `\ _/=== \___/ \___/ //\./=/~\====\ \ // / | ===: | ._/_,__|_ ==: __ \/ \\ \\`--| / \\ | \\:| /==:-\ \__/``\____/ | |--|==: \ \ ===\ :==:`-' _> \ ===\ /==/ /==\ | ===\__/--/ <=== \ / ====\ \\/ _`-- \/ === \/--' /______/_______/ +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Purple Hayes
by PJMiller 09 Oct '98

09 Oct '98

All this talk about Ms. Campbell's charm and shy ways - don't you all realise that she's an ELECTRIC STORMTROOPER of LOVE?! That's her mum, third from the left on the cover of JIMI HENDRIX's double album "Electric Ladyland". Marjorie Campbell, better known in certain circles as Marjorie Plastercaster, spent the latter half of the sixties making unique limited edition souvenirs of the rock glitterati. In return, she was given hundreds of free records, which have gone on to form the backbone of Isobel's collection, which in turn has inspired Belle and Sebastian in their quest to brew up the perfect pop hotch-potch. That's the story of the blues, parts 1 and 2. Speaking of JIMI HENDRIX, I've just been listening to the BBC sessions by JIMI HENDRIX and his trusty EXPERIENCE. It's not that good really, but I thought I'd mention it anyway. Well, I like the songs from "Electric Ladyland", they're very effective when shorn of studio trickery. Alexis Korner seems like a nice place. Janine wrote: So when I dance around, I waggle my butt and use my arms as wings. really, I do. We believe you, Janine. Do you make like buzzy buzzy bee noises at the same time? Isaac Hayes based the flute line on one of his songs on The Flight of the Bumblebee, you know. They're fairly lazy, sensuous bees by the time he's finished with them, but it's the thought that counts. the welcom return of The Duke included: i am tired and emotional and listening to Hash Jar Tempo, which i found today and which is divine. Do you mean Ash Ra Tempel? They are indeed divine, as Keith can testify. It's not the kind of thing you listen to everyday, but just every once in a while it's really good. I did (another) tape of Krautrock last night, and really enjoyed listening to it for the first time in ages, particularly La Dusseldorf, excellent stuff, complete with aeroplane noises. Especially inspiring on "a decent pair of headphones". That reminds me, in all the excitement over the European dates, I haven't noticed a single report from Munich or that other place. Didn't anyone go? Councillor Cox PS: Reading through this message, it has occurred to me that I may have given the impression that I don't like studio trickery. Well I do, and apologise for any distress I may have caused. PPS: Oooooooon, I didn't know you had a gambling problem! I'm shocked and concerned, quite frankly. Why don't you have a flutter on a Turkish cleansweep in the European club competitions this year? I'm going to. Mister Conneely likes gambling too, if you remember. You could form a self help group. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: ''But if you see a man crying, hold his hand; he's my friend.''
by Funkyseb＠aol.com 08 Oct '98

08 Oct '98

Two things: 1) Sorry for the arrogance in my last post. I didn't mean to infer that I was fascinating and everyone else is shit. Which is what it sounded like. 2) <<And what's this about rioting at B&S shows?>> It's time I explained this riot thing: from 'Thrills', the 'funny' page of the NME 'Thrills is proud to announce an alternative to the NME/NFT film festival, to be held next Monday night upstairs at my garage in our den. Only members of my gang can come.' CARNAGE FUCKERS Never before seen footage of the riot at Belle and Sebastian's gig at the Chelsea flower show. Supressed by the band until now, the visceral power of this piece simply has to be witnessed. You are in the thick of the action as an audience member accidentally drops their flask of Ribena over someone's travel blanket and all hell breaks loose as the whole crowd go 'Ssssh!' in unison.' I like that a lot actually. First funny thing they've done yet. Was Johnny Cigarettes at one of the recent gigs, by any chance? That explanation was pretty pointless wasn't it? As no-one outside the UK's going to know what the fuck Ribena and travel blankets are....It's like trying to explain Noel Edmonds to an alien. bye bye seb BTW, pookie59(a)hotmail.com (Stan The Man) wrote: Stan?

Sinister: Bill Withers was good to me
by Funkyseb＠aol.com 08 Oct '98

08 Oct '98

You bastards. I've been trying really hard all day not to post to the list, but then the standards of the posts today...jesus. So here we are again. someone I fear not all of you love quite as much as you should wrote: <<this morning i played McCarthy's 'Frans Hals' to about 250 15 year olds. later on they laughed at me. which is fair enough.>> Please don't leave us alone again Duke. This is why I stay subbed. I can see it all now...it's very poignant. One day I will make a film of it. Mmm. On my Super 8. I was reminded of the duke the other day actually, when that Lenoir chap played a bit of Felt, just before the now legendary black session. Nice touch, I thought. The very poetically named Julien wrote: <<Angels, angels... that's the right word. The *only* word.>> Angels indeed. Naughty ones, but none the less, angels. I've done nothing today except listen to tape after tape of interviews and sessions, and god! you just want to wrap this lot up warmly and make them a nice cup of milky tea. I used to like noisy rock and roll once you know kids...and used to mosh along to earsplitting feedback, In crappy indie toilets; fuelled by cheap lager. This lot have neutered me. All I do now is write crappy poetry and draw pictures of foxes....anyone else sold their soul to rock n' roll, only to have it cleaned, redeemed, and returned to them by Stuart Murdoch? Ooh, on a poetry tip: Has everyone else forgotten that it's national poetry day today? (seeing as 90% of us seem to be americans now, it's not really relevant I supose). I expected M. du Pantalon to say something on the matter, but I imagine he had a busy day doing whatever poetry people do when they're excited. Drinking too much and falling over, as I recall :-) Well, I look forward to reading the winning entries to the haiku competition. And Trousers, can you forget all about the one I sent you? You know what it's like- you write a poem that you *know* is the best thing ever written, you tell it to someone, and you realise it actually goes: lalalalalalala self lalalalalalala shelf lalalalalalala orange. lalalalalalala oh. ......bollocks. But that's not what I was going to say. I was going to tell you just how much fun I'm having listening to Too Rye Ay at the moment. I just can't get enough of it. I think I've had enough, but I haven't. I think 'that's enough', but I'm wrong. It's not. I need more. I 'cannot' physically, 'have enough' of 'it'.* Would anyone care to tell me privately, ie OFF THE LIST, what happened to Kevin Rowland's rumoured career? Kevin Rowland is Stuart Murdoch with an ego. But he's not as nice. Or as angelic. Rowland gets no tea and cake from me. Someone said a while ago that we should post our dirty dreams to the list. Well, I'm too innocent to have dirty dreams (seriously, kids), but I can reveal that the theme tune to Brush Strokes used to give me a hard on. byebye seb *The first person to recognise which comedian I just ripped that off wins a picture of a fox.

RE: Sinister: Something fishy...
by Wise, Terri 08 Oct '98

Yeah yeah... Everyone is telling me about this sturgeon business. I grew up in a land-locked area and I don't EAT fish... I guess I don't know about all these fish types... And what's this about rioting at B&S shows? I mean, I love their music, but rioting seems a bit off the mark! Or is this another one of those jokes that I'm just not getting? Has anyone already commented (probably long ago!) on the fact that many of the list members appear to work for music-related companies? Not that it's surprising, but I've not encountered this many on other lists I've seen. But I don't want you all to think I'm an insufferable crank... really I'm not! So onto some B&S adoration to prove it... A fellow B&S lover and I were discussing the fact that one of the things we've liked right from the start about the band is their seeming lack of pretense. Their music feels very sincere. The songs that are so easy to relate to that you feel you've heard them a million times before on just the first listen are songs that are just GENUINE (like, I imagine, this new Lord Anthony people have been raving about). At the moment, my favorite tunes are Seeing Other People (that piano is tremendous - very RIGHT , and of course the words...) and Judy and the Dream of Horses - just a beautiful song. So I saw myself as a quiet one... but I guess I was wrong - or, at least, now I am.
