It's a fair cop. Except in this case. Because I'm not really familiar with
the music in question. At the time I was convinced that tinnily recorded
sixties pastiches were where it was at. And it may well have been. A
defining moment in my life was when a mumbling drunkard asked me if I was
the bass player with the Chesterfields.

Hopkins, that's like bumping into Digby the Biggest Dog in the World and
calling him a "big dog".

Thanks for helping to clear that one up. I'm a bit worried about my
credibility though. A few more Rod Stewart quotations should put paid to it
once and for all. Speaking of which, my reference to French police in a
recent message heading was, of course, a tribute to Rod, not an editorial
comment on Paul's guidance. Just to clear up any residual doubts I will say
it as clearly as possible:
I like Paul and appreciate the work he does for the list.

I don't know if I'm alone inn having ruined my eyes by trying to read the
very small sleeve notes to the Funkadelic "Music For Your Mother"
compilation, but one of the funniest bits in a very funny story is when
Funkadelic try to get a bit of rivalry going by dissing other funk bands.
Insults included "Earth, Wind and No Fire". Nobody took a blind bit of
notice. "Bloody sod yer then!" said Fuzzy Haskins.
To Mister Arthur Bergman:
Welcome to the list, Big Tackle. I hope you have a steadying influence on
some of the more immature list members, a bit like Howard Cunningham in
"Happy Days". Your daughter is a credit to you. I look forward to hearing
from you on the list
Peter

All the list members who have aol should go to keyword Rollingstone
and click on the B, then find Belle and Sebastian, and you can do all sorts of
things. Including: Sending a trivia question, look at the discography, read
articles, listen to songs, and look at photos... *except* RS doesn't seem to
be finished with updating their section yet. The photos aren't there, there
are no other trivia questions except the one I submitted, there's only one
article (about B&S signing to Matador - which comes up with a file not found
message when you try to read it) and NOBODY except me has rated the releases.
That's the best part - if you go there, you will see what I mean. I gave
"Tigermilk" a classic rating and the results post that 100% of people who
voted gave it 5 stars. Amazing.
There are three mistakes among the discography: First of all, underneath
Tigermilk, it gives you the option of actually BUYING it (ha ha), and under
the ep and singles section, it lists LLPJ, DOW, but no mention of 369. And
they list RADCLIFF SESSION as an ep released by the BBC in 1996, which I don't
quite understand.
