Hi everyone I've been on the list for a couple of days now, and have been feeling a little furtive for homing on on all of of your conversations without letting on that I'm reading them, so here I am, outing myself. Following a brief spell during which I refused to look/listen into the magic of Belle & Sebastian due to my assumptions that they were inherently linked to their animated counterparts (does anyone remember that strange Norweigian cartoon?), I stumbled upon them in Glasgow one day, and things have never been quite the same... Also, Andy Dean was asking something about Polar Bear - I don't know a great deal, but I can tell you that their debut single was called Starfighter Pilot, and did indeed come out on Electric Honey, the same label which released Tigermilk. Inkeeping with this tradition, it also looks like they are now signed to Jeepster Recordings, home, of course, to B & S. I managed to procure a copy of said single in the Notting Hill record exchange, and a fine record it is - and Stuart Murdoch provides some backing vocals and whistles and things throughout. I'm not sure where it's available now, but Starfighter Pilot, and the third track, Safety, are magic. Sorry for the length of this message - just thought I'd say Hi Love Nicola x ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Does anyone know the release dates of these eps/singles in the U.S. Being on the wrong side of the ocean, I can only locate 'If you're' and nothing else. This is even using some pretty good indie stores on the Web. I was able to snag a copy of 'Dog on Wheels' through a friend, but still have never seen it in a store.
