ah This Poison!... recorded for the wedding
present's 'reception' label and had a killer
single called 'engine failure' which had penguins
on the cover and on the labels said the time for
both songs was '2.53'.  they weren't of course, it
was just some Pop notion that said the perfect Pop
Song was that length...  They were from Perth
weren't they?  home also to the occassionally
wonderful Relations who were due to do a record on
a label set up by ex-Jasminks man Adam Sanderson,
but i dunno if it ever did appear :-(

could be well off target here, but i think it was
The Very Things, who also did the very excellent
'Motortown'.

no idea... you are speaking in tongues.

B&S content?  Is it just me or does the girl
talking on the Arab Strap's 'themetune' on the  7"
on Lissy's Label sound uncannily like Isobel or
Sarah or whoever it is that talks at the end of 'I
Could Be Dreaming'?  Just a thought, and i have to
say actually that i am currently totally
enraptured by 'the strap'... listening to the Peel
session stuff, and some 'live on radio one'
material that my mate taped for me, and oooh, it's
just so glorious.

winding down to start up again.
