heard a bit of one of their albums, and I'd love to hear more......

I have "The Strange Idols Pattern and Other Short Stories/Ignite the Seven
Cannons" because Robin Guthrie produced half of it and Elizabeth Fraser is on
the song "Primitive Painters". But I must say Lawrence's Fred Schneider-ish
mostly spoken vocals get on my nerves so I don't listen to it that often.

It's weird you should mention Shelleyan Orphan - I was listening to an old
tape of 'Century Flower' the other day. When it came out I had them pegged
as just another faintly embarrassing 4ad group, but listening to it now it
sounded really good - has the world changed or have I changed?!
By the way, does anybody have any idea what book the girl is holding on the
cover of Lazy Line Painter Jane? I've tried squinting, but I still can't
make out the title...

hey again.
i'm on a couple of other lists and it seems that every day, someone is
recommending another band. i've noticed that i've heard no
recommendations from this list (since i've been on it at least). now, i
know we can't all be listening to nothing but belle and sebastian, so
what is everyone out there listening to? i'll start off with a
recommendation of my own.
now, i know a lot of you are tindersticks fans as well. well, i have
another band. lambchop. they are i guess what the tindersticks would be
if they grew up in tennessee and were raised on country music. there's
about 11 or 12 members in the band, everything ranging from tuba to
"open-ended wrenches"? if you like the tindersticks, you'll like
lambchop. almost guaranteed.
that's my recommendation. they have a new album out "thriller" but i
haven't got my hands on it yet. but i recommend "jack's tulips / i hope
you're sitting down" their first album.
bye.

The best thing I've bought in a long time is "Arkology" by
Lee Perry and chums.
[Keith Watson]
I bought that too, it's bloody ace - love Errol Walker's "John Public"
The second best thing is Antonio Carlos Jobim's "Warner
Archives"
The third best thing is Led Zeppelin's "Remasters" which has
improved a lot since I sold the tape version a couple of
years ago. It's much better if you can skip out the crap
ones annd get down to some serious riffing.
[Keith Watson]
Bought the entire back catalogue a few weeks ago, totally ace too.
On the indie front, I like "Chorus" by Flying Saucer Attack,
which I was lucky enough to rescue from the bargain bucket.
Really good muffled drum sounds.
I also bought Chumbawamba, but I haven't got past the first
song yet. I suppose everyone's mightily sick of it by now,
but it makes me feel a bit homesick. But not much.
[Keith Watson]
Well... I fucking can't stand this sort of shite, used to hear them every week at this club we went to a few years ago in Edinburgh, my flatmate interviewed them for the Student newspaper, he played me the tape, it was all full of "You don't understand, the government's controlling the way you think" etc. you get the idea.

How many Demos they have recorded in their early days ?
Ben (thanks Ben) sent me a tape with 3 songs that i think are songs taken
from a Demo tape.
All of them are so great.

way the trumpet part in "ring of fire" by the great johnny cash.

Sorry for, man am I dumb, responding to the list with that last message.
Double sorry for this one.
Tie in, let's see... OK, I was equally moronic today when installing a new
PC at work and my boss wondered what the song was blaring out of my
headphones. As she lifted the headset (which was playing String Bean Jean)
I tried to help her because I knew the stupid ear pieces were going to fall
off (I've broken them both by slamming the headset to the ground after
particularly loud songs). Of course I missed the left piece and it fell to
the ground. Of course I missed the right piece and it fell onto a chair. Of
course I did not miss her chest which my uncoordinated hands fell onto.
Jeez, another pornographic moment with a Belle & Sebastian soundtrack.
Luckily my boss isn't much older than me and expects dumb behavior when she
gets too close.
AARRGGHH!
Sorry everyone,
Clint

Well, this doesn't exactly answer your question, but I do have something to
offer...
I have 25 megs of server space in the U.S. (west coast) just sitting empty
and if you'd like to use it as a U.S. mirror to your site, you are totally
welcome to have it. I can give you the upload address and set up a password
for you or I can move the files if you want. Also, I have a top-of-the-line
PC and PowerMac in my office at work and an ethernet connection to the
internet, so I can move files quickly and I also have access to great
graphics/multimedia programs. So, if you ever need a resource for any of
the above, or the server space, let me know. I get pretty bored here at
work, and I'm usually around here 50-60 hours a week so I'd be happy to
help out.
-Clint
ps-I wouldn't make this offer to anyone else but a Belle and Sebastian fan
since they are the only band in the past two years that have made me feel
that the current 'little guy' music scene isn't dead.

we're currently on virgin net and are having hell with their mail
server.
does anyone know of an extremely reliable service available in London or
nationally at reasonable rates.
my criteria are:
100% access
good download speeds
very reliable POP3 mailbox
and maybe a bride of some web space (you can never have enough!)
sorry it's a post about Belle and Sebastian.
I'll return to normal soon.
Please mail the response privately to spare the list.
David Kitchen
