um, female drummers. the first thing i have to say is that, in my opinion, you're really wasting your time talking music to someone who hasn't heard of the velvet underground. but if you want famous female drummers then there's always karen carpenter... (btw, there's more to moe tucker than the drums - she's had numerous solo lps out. she's also not lou reed...) and as for family trees then stuart m and chris g helped out on the first arab strap peel session. oh, and the stuart m contribution to the polar bear thing that katrina mentioned last week is quite wonderful (and a bit rude!) in a mournful kind of way. i stumbled across a copy in the oxford st virgin megastore a few weeks ago. pick up the re-release if it's included. andy (you can stop reading this now, the stuff that follows is, as usual, way off topic) um, i go away for a week and come back to find about half a dozen interesting singles and lps have been released in the meantime. typical. new mogwai promises to be good, as always. did anyone tape last week's peel session or breezeblock performance btw? i'd like a copy... the other releases are all kinda techno (apart from HNIA and mojave 3) so i'm not even going to mention them here... oh, and the last arab strap video was on alternative nation last night on mtv (uk). it wasn't very good. alternative nation is probably the only watchable 2 hours that mtv produce in a week. not that i've really sat down and watched a lot of it but everytime i turn it on it's either will smith or that young blonde kid (aaron carter?). i guess it's only really reflected the rest of the world though, a world where 95% of the music produced just doesn't appeal to me. i met minnie mouse the other day. she's very short. david beckham, sheesh. == andrew dean (koogydelbbog@yahoo.com) _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
