Sinister: Air/IYFS Vinyl/Sessions W. 54th Set List?
Hello all: For more info on the band who have made the album to top in 1998, http://www.caroline.com have a wonderful Air site, complete with a discography. Go there, you can even listen to the entire album(Moon Safari) as well as selected early singles. Dig those groovy graphics, too! I also must sing the praises of the _Premieres Symptomes_ EP! An amazing little piece of plastic! I stumbled across a promo of it at work back in November (basically took it because of the artwork, I hadn't heard of them before["i only buy a book for the way it looks"]) and subsequently fell under its super-hypnotic spell. One of those records that possesses its own unique feeling, a record that makes you actually *feel* something, something no other record makes you feel. I played it in my car quite literally everyday for two weeks on my drive to and from work(one way=almost exactly the length of the EP). Quite beautiful, especially those last two tracks. Seek it out. Does there really exist a 40 minute version of Casanova 70?!? Anyone with info on how to get this in the States, please e-mail me privately. Also, anyone who might be as obsessed with this band as I am might want to check out the Source Lab series of CD compilations, particularly Vol. 3, which has an unreleased song called "Cosmic Bird", a beautiful collaboration with Jean Jacques Perrey(who they also collaborated with on Moon Safari's stunning "Remember"). Volumes 1 & 2 contain songs found later on the PS EP. And if you're really a nutter you might want to pick up the Ettiene de Crecy disc, "Super Discount", which contains one Air tune remixed by EDC. *On the B&S front, any DC area listers interested in owning a vinyl version of IYFS should get in touch with Vinyl Ink in Silver Spring, MD. I bought one of the two copies they had in stock yesterday. It's gorgeous. Hurry. Bring $19 and enough change for tax. One last thing: does anyone have a setlist for B&S's Sessions performance? Yes, I was in attendance for this, but as they played almost exclusively either new songs or songs off of Tigermilk(which I had not heard at that point), I'm a bit miffed as to what it was I witnessed. I do recall Mayfly cuz Stuart forgot the words, and also Judy... And if my retrroactive memory serves me right, I think they did Slow Graffitti(which he called Pendulum or something, maybe??!?). As you can tell, I'm a tad confused. Anyone who can clear it up with a setlist , I would be most appreciated! rendered, rainforested & rolexed: jarrett frankel jfrankel@intr.net ************************************************************** album of the week: 1/19/98 ~Air- Moon Safari ************************************************************** ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
