The Band concerned are called Multiplication Rock, and their "Three is a
magic number" (much better than De la
Soul's, I reckon) is so good that whenever my mate Robin makes me a tape
(of old funk and hip hop, mainly) he
insists on putting this song on yet again. Apparently, "Naughty Number
Nine" is the other hit off the record,
but I've never heard it. I can try and get Robin to tape me the album if
you like?
"A man and a woman had a little baby, yes they did - they had three-ee-ee
in the family"
Also, is children's TV the only subject which really stimulates people?
While I've been subscribing, Kafka,
Galaxie 500 and sodding Mysterious cities of gold have been the most
popular threads, but enough is surely
enough. More importantly, me and a friend are working on a sitcom, but
the "sit" bit is currently missing. I
would like YOU - yes, you! - to try and help us think of an amusing
situation our characters could find
themselves in. Chew on that, my friends!
Gott a go bed - back in the studio in benighted Bow, East London, by 8 am
tomorrow...
Love you all,
Marky C.
P.S Trousers - glad you appreciated the gesture. Gerard thought I was
being an arse. There's no pleasing some
people!

tomorrow afternoon, 2-4PM U.S. central time (8-10pm UK time; for all other
time zones, I'm afraid you'll have to do the math, as I am pish with
numbers) point your web browser to:
http://www.wnur.org/live.ram
and thanks to modern technology you can tune in to my *very last* radio show!
as usual, I will take requests via email (a-bergman(a)nwu.edu) until noon
(here) tomorrow or you can phone during the aforementioned hours...
call (847) 866-WNUR (which is 866-9687) and talk to meeeee!
Please please please offer suggestions of what to play, as our record
library is vast and I am often too befuddled to know where to begin my
foray into the stacks each week.
actually, it'd be cool if you could please email me the top 4 belle and
sebastian songs you'd like to hear (or wish you could hear, if your browser
is not accomodating or you'll *gasp* be away from the computer during those
hours) and i'll dedicate a set to the Sinister listees at the end.
last time I did my show, I played (among others):
Lucksmiths
Laika
Spinanes
Tindersticks
Tiger Trap
Go-betweens
Liz Phair
Holiday Flyer
Cannanes
and the requisite B&S
so please tune in if you can!
bye bye,
Swannie

hi everyone,
since the topic of the moment seems to be cartoons, I thought i might as well
post cause its a subject very dear to my heart. I think my favorites growing
up were Thundercats and Silverhawks, anyone remember those? I do remember
watching Dangermouse and Bananaman too! Nickelodeon used to be the bomb!! I
remember watching Nickelodeon for whole days at a time... Double Dare, You
Can't Do that on Television... classic shows. nowadays my vote would have to
go to the Simpsons. Actually the Simpsons is one of the only shows on TV that
i would actually plan to watch nowadays. that and "Iron Chefs". (an AWESOME
Japanese cooking program) has anyone ever heard of it? I've been a big fan of
that show since my best friend introduced it to me 2 years ago. it's on one of
the Asian cable channels here in S.F. Anyways back to cartoons, of course i
have to take the opportunity to promote the movie I'm animating on currently...
"A Bug's Life". it's coming out in November. go see it!
peace out.

I'm sorry but when it comes to god like genius on kid's TV, there is only
one applicant, that man is Derek Griffiths and he is god. The man could do
anything, sing, dance, make crap things out of bits of tissue and that weird
paste like glue that you could peel off your hands when it dried, anything.
Well thats my tuppence worth on Kids TV, except to say that my fave cartoon
animation thingy was always Mr Benn and for live action you couldn't beat a
bit of Rentaghost could you.

I think Riki Tiki Tavi actually mentally scarred me. Two years ago in a
poetry class, we were supposed to be recalling a various number of childhood
memories and turning them into poetry, blah, blah, blah. Well, every single
thing I wrote had something to do with Riki Tiki Tavi. Those crazy snakes
haunt me. Even when I went back and read the Rudyard Kipling short story, I
was disturbed. I wonder if there's a support group for this...

listening to scot fm sunday nite to that program that i can't
remember the name of, a children's record fronted by bob dora (?)
cropped up. it's got 10 songs, each one sesame steet style showcasing
(sssss) the talents of each number . de la soul sampled NUMBER 3 for
their magico hit record and it's just really good jazz pop funk like
a love! and the lyrics aren't about grinding sex or revenge
or love or the world which i like too. it's quite rare now this, i
think.
so if anyone knows what i'm rambling on about or HAS a copy of this
disc , please mail me and mebbe i could get a tape, huh? please?

YES. I lovvvved The Last Unicorn. And I did see Animalymics. My favorite
part was the running race between a pretty female animal and some fast male
mammal. The two competed for several days, then fell in love and finished the
race holding hands. Aww..
I also used to really like Riki Tiki Tavi, but now I think it's a little
creepy.

Here's my lot on the cartoon thread:
(Pigeon street, YES! "Long distance Clara" etc. classic.)
Nobody's mentioned the Carebears, sure they were terrible, but I
can't think of all these other cartoons without thinking of them.
When we used to go to the video store my sister always wanted a
carebears video and I wanted a superman film.
I don't think Uncle Paul will be pleased to get back and find the b+s
list has mutated into a "cartoons for the under ten's" list...
byedybye, Henry.
