Anyone who wants a tape of the Divine Comedy's "Fanfare.." can mail me and I'll sort them out. It's definitely not worth paying wads of cash for - all the really good stuff is freely available ---------- From: Jackson,John To: bbrennan; ronbarrett; sinister Subject: Sinister: Tigermilk record for sale Date: 19 March 1998 14:45 Howdo kids just reading NME over lunch, that shop in Carlisle, Opal Music, is advertising another Tigermilk on vinyl for sale, if anyone wants to try and get it you could email sales(a)opalmusic.com or ring 0044 1228 599226 ( if you're in the UK then just 01228 599226) Even if it's still available I would have thought you can expect to pay over 200 quid for it..is it worth it? Just out of interest, does anyone know what the band think about people paying this kind of fucking extortionate price for it? Also, how is it that this shop can keep sourcing Tigermilk vinyl copies....can we be sure that there isn't already somewhere bootlegging them? Just a thought.

Re: Sinister: no contiene nada de Belle y Sebastian, lo siento

>Unfortunately they chose the latter. Whatever. As a journalist who happens to >adore B&S, the music is the most important thing.

Do we actually CARE which is SM's favourite Felt >song, or, indeed, what colour socks he wears? Belle Lettres is much more >relevant. They have to realise that if they're going to enter into media-esque >shenanigans, however, that an attitude reminiscent of the '86 shambling era >(or, at least, the way it was portrayed by the NME and suchlike at the time) >comes across as less than charming in print/IRC transcript. >Stephen. Well that's a bloody great pity isn't it. Belle and Sebastian and the chat operators both fail to live up to your high standards of conduct. Well you are a journalist I suppose and people really ought to treat you with more respect than others. There were a lot of people from lots of different places, with lots of different interests and there were people of many different ages involved in that chat. If someone wants to ask what colour socks someone wears then that's up to them - or would you suggest that perhaps all questions should be vetted by you personally before anyone's allowed to ask them. I suspect there were some people out there who were quite interested in what their favourite Felt song was. Not everyone's going to care - but that's not the point. Incidentally, what questions did you ask yourself? Keith. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

Sinister: yeats and crazy 8s
by Runegg 19 Mar '98

19 Mar '98

Here's a short Yeats poem to write lots of English papers about. You could write a whole life to this poem, actually. Poor Willie, spent his whole life trapped in unrequited love for Maud Gonne. And he still had decades more torture to go when he wrote this poem. I guess it helped him write some great poems, but did he live a half-life? I hope there were "others", as he says, or else he doomed himself. Well, this poem blows my mind nohow. --Ari A Deep-Sworn Vow Others because you did not keep That deep-sworn vow have been friends of mine; Yet always when I look death in the face, When I clamber to the heights of sleep, Or when I grow excited with wine, Suddenly I meet your face. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: A Century of Bradys.
by Yummycats 19 Mar '98

19 Mar '98

Recently, I made a post about the similarites about melody of the songs, "Century of Fakers," and "There is Love (The Wedding Song)." Believe it or not, I just heard another song with the same melody - "Road To Love" performed by Maureen McCormick and Chris Knight (aka, Marcia and Peter Brady). Anyone who doesn't believe me, just ask and I'll send you a .wav file. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Re: Sinister: Are they still alive?

> > got a question. Does anybody know if The High, The La's, > No idea on these... The LA's have split a long time ago (I don't know exactly when, but I suppose it was about hmmm...5 years...maybe?). Someone from The LA's has formed Cast (I'm not sure if it was the guy who's now Cast's singer, John Power). Cast debut album "All Change" was released in 1995, containing the hit "Alright". Their second album was released in 97, but I've never heard it. I only know one song from The LA's, but I'm sure they are much better than Cast. "There She Goes" is a CLASSIC! A band who did a song like THIS could never be bad, it's completely impossible! While Cast...is poor. Not bad, but...nothing special. The guy's voice can sound quite boring after 15 minutes.

dear fellow listees, oh, i remember brit pop, circa 1995....it was particularly exciting for a 17 year old american girl who wanted so much to escape from the suburbs. london seemed like such a romantic place. every week i went to this record store that specialized in import singles; the nme was my bible. it was so exciting that this record store received their singles the same day that you all in england could buy yours. so i bought everything!!!!! it was great to be into something that hadn't yet caught on in the states cos bands would come play small shit clubs for 3 or 4 dollars. one weekend was especially wonderful...friday i saw menswe@r open for the charlatans, then rushed over to some other shit club to see gene play to 100 people...then the next night i went to see blur. now, i own too many crap singles, too many adidas trainers and too many track jackets. much love, uyenxx ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
