Sinister: I will not be silenced (or something .....)
TWO POSTS IN LESS THAN TWENTY FOUR HOURS! WHAT THE HELL IS THAT MIKKELSEN BOY ON? What indeed. I wonder why dear sweet Laura Llew still insists on referring to me as Lawrence "The Milkman" Mikkelsen. You've got to ask yourself. No further down the road re: "Jeremy In Chicago". Someone said something about The Ailser Set, but the song doesn't sound *anything* like them, plus it's a male vocalist etc. I am very confused ..... even if it isn't a B&S song, it's still fantastic. (and I appologise if the issue has been resolved ... I get the digest, and hence always read posts a day or so late) Other stuff .... PEACOCK JOHNSTON Great book .... halfway through ... it's really funny and a great story. Although I don't think it's as well written as "Nalda Said". "Nalda ...." is a work of genuis ... the actual prose is brilliant ... really simple yet evocative. I guess Peacock is good in that it is written in character really well, I just find the lack of any imagery and the bare bones descriptions a little sparse. But again, I say, great book. Hope it gets turned into a film. FOLD YOUR HANDS CHILD, YOU WALK LIKE A PEASANT It occurs to me that it's been out almost a year. (The Jeepster B&S site still talks about the "new" album - ha!) I was wondering what people think of it, now that it's had a year or so to be digest. personally, it is now my second favourite B&S album (after "Tigermilk" as BEST ALBUM EVER MADE), but also my most listened to B&S album. I listen to it at least a couple of times a week, and find it just gets better and better. It's really rich, and even though in my heart I would have liked an album full of Struan songs, I do love the "democratic" nature of the songwriting. It's one of those flawed but great masterpieces. well, thats it for now .... sleep well kids, Lawrence +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
