Re: Sinister: Guy Chadwick
I love the House Of Love, only recently someone played me the single 'Feel' from Babe Rainbow, it's rather lovely I think, I don't have the CD of Babe Rainbow, if anyone has it and doesn't want it they could always send it to me, which would be nice.
That line above is from the b side of Destroy The Heart isn't it, great song I think. Bah bollocks to all of you.

Babe Rainbow's fucking top, and has been selling in second hand shops in droves for about a fiver for years. Indeed the increasingly desparate House of Love at this point released a version of You don't Understand where ALL the copies were signed by the band (must've been like writing lines). It's a lovely album, and yeah, it rings a bell, the B side job, "Blind" is it? Keith. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

A friend of mine once bought about a hundred and thirty-two different versions of "The Beatles and the Stones". That song had some good lines in it as well, put the "v" in vietnam and so on. I enjoyed his argument with that Bickers fella. His guitar playing was like a disease apparently. I think drugs played a part in the whole affair, including the purchase of multiple versions of that song.These multiple messages are a bit alarming. I don't mind when it's other people's, but when it's mine I think what a boring bastard I am. Which may or may not be the case. I don't know whether Gary Kemp is married to Pepsi or Shirley or both, but they were in Hello magazine. That Walker Brothers CD is dead good, especially the interview at the end. Poptastic. In Nik Cohn's book AWOPBOPALOPBOPALOPBOPALOPBOPALOPBAMBOO! he expresse the opinion that the Walker Brothers stuff is great, and then goes on to say how disappointed he is that Scott Walker went on to dedicate himself to the production of "flowerpots". At no point does he explain the meaning of "flowerpots", but I think he means records with big orchestras on them. Personally I like the big orchestras on SW's records, and see no similarity to flowerpots, but it's a nice image and I've been using it a lot ever since I read it. Are Belle and Sebastian in the flowerpot business? After all ,they do use cellos and trumpets and stuff. My favourite Scott Walker composition, and coincidentally the biggest flowerpot of all time is "The Old Man's Back Again (Dedicated to the Neo-Stalinist Regime)". It's truly funky. I listen to Scott Walker quite a lot, being a flowerpot kind of guy. The fornnt cover of "After the Lights Go Out" reveals Scott to be in posession of a very tight pair of trousers that reveal where he keeps his maracas. And the liner notes are written by the equally exquisite Mike Read. Whereas the "Boy Child" notes come courtesy of Marc Almond.
