Whilst perusing a virtual record shop - www.cdnow.com - yesterday, i was looking at the (hideously overpriced) B&S CD's when it suggested i 'click here' for related B&S music.... are you ready for this. Apparently I should be buying the new LP's by Bob Dylan, Paul Simon, Sarah McClachlan, The Verve, Radiohead, & Sleater-Kinney. So there you are conclusive proof, if proof be needed, that B&S fans are not sniffly, cardie-wearing, mopers but are in fact mid 70's folkie throwbacks who follow the crowd & like a bit of lo-fi punky business now & then. SPOT ON.... Michael York was Manimal & it was huge pants, make no mistake The Ian Brown album is ummm.. i'm going to have to say OK. It's 100 times the seahorses (not difficult) & full of good ideas. It just seems to sacrifice tunes for trying too hard to be interesting. I guess i was just hoping for a new 'Standing Here' to get me through the millennium.... The Add N to X LP is wonderful - if you're still thinking of buying the Air LP. Don't! buy this instead..... The girls PE teacher at our school was called Miss Mountain until she got married & became Mrs Hill. I belm ye not! Has anyone in the US heard of a band called 'The 3'o clock'? Apparently, they were a huge influence on the fledgling Roses... Um. I think i'd better go now. sorry... Paulus the wood-gnome ....flying back to the US next week on Virgin....yipeee ;-] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
