Nic Wrote... I've only got Way to Blue (Sell out best of introduction to..) by Nick Drake and I love it. Which one should I get next then? I gather there are 3 proper albums. So should I plump for 1 or just get them all? Anyone know if the box-set thing with all of them and an extra cd is still available anywhere? cheers The box-set is all over the place, and will set you back around £40 for the four CDs. There is also a tribute album, which I don't have, and a tape of home recordings, which I do, but not the best quality. If you want any info, try this site... http://www3.hb.se/kursinfo/studdocs/stefan/nick.htm <http://www3.hb.se/kursinfo/studdocs/stefan/nick.htm> . There is, if it still exists, a fanzine run by a guy called Jason Creed, whose detailsI don't have right now, but above all, buy the biography. It's the best I've read, although it is only the second I've read.

Anyone who wants 'Five Leaves Left' for £6.99 can try the sale section on the first floor at the Virgin Megastore on Tottenham Court Road. I put it specially in the following position: third rack from the left, bottom shelf, leftmost pile, at the back. I guess I could have bought it and offered it to the list (cost price, natch), but where's the thrilling element of chance in that ? laters, yluTurt +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".

They also had lots of Bryter Layters on the ground floor bit. But buy the box set because the cases are a cool minty green and you get a lovely booklet with all the lyrics, a short biog. and lots of lovely pictures of him. Rod wrote:

But I thought they called themselves Theaudience, all rolled into one, so it lends itself perfectly. Anyone bought the album? I would if I had the money as they are very cheery and she does have a rather good voice, even if she is loathed by many people (possibly for that very reason and cos she is so young, how unfair, but there is justice, look at how much make up she has to plaster on to hide the acne) God did I just write that, ten Hail Marys for me. David mentioned the Salako in-store thing again: London - Rough Trade - Talbot Road 5:30/6 p.m. for around 30 minutes But I trashed the first message so i don't know the date, anyone like to oblige? Does anyone else think that Stuart David (at least I think it's him) sounds like Edwin Collins, just a little bit? Especially on Seymour Stein, but also in the harmony for Fox in the Snow? If anyone outside London is feeling jealous that they cannot share the joys of X-FM, don't fret too much, they still play at least one Oasis song EVERY morning, and they are making a big deal about playing the new Beautiful South single - alternative?

well after today they need not fret at all since Capital just sacked most of the Xfm dj's and have changed everything around. Anyone that hasn't noticed the way they have "subtly" changed the programming over the last month must be deaf or stupid. Its just so annoying - we spent so long waiting for it and Capital are determined to shaft us now that we finally got it. BASTARDS! it's not quite bad enough yet to switch back to Radio 1 but it's getting close. cheers Nic +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".

it's actually worse than everyone thinks, apart from sacking half the dj's, has anyone noticed that we're now listening to a tape, and that there are NO dj's at the other end. great back to back music, but it's ALL embrace!
