Sinister: Defrosting the fridge

[Barrett Ronan]

Hello all

Thanks to Katrina for the new EP info.  Only 6 weeks to go before we   
finally get to hear the studio version of best song ever written with a   
line about defrosting the fridge.  Goody goody.

When I was over in France during the summer the natives failed to live up   
to their mean-spirited stereotype quite spectacularly by all being dead   
sound, and now that Philippe (one L, 3 Ps, etc) has sent me the tape of   
the Black Sessions I'll never hear another bad word about those wonderful   
people again.  My side of the bargain is that anyone in Ireland who wants   
a copy of the session can mail me and let me know and I'll sort something   
out.  At the moment there is a queue of two.  If I'm in a good mood I   
might even copy the cover that Philippe sent me with photos from the gig.   
 The gig itself is really good, if you can put up with the band's usual   
shameless self-promotion (2 whole songs off the current album!)   
 Mr.Lenoir's ramblings between songs make for a good laugh too.  (If   
you're not in Ireland but would be prepared to tape some non-album   
Stephin Merritt songs for me my arm could be twisted too).

While I'm here, can I just recommend the new Boo Radleys LP to anyone who   
is even vaguely tempted to buy it as it is bloody marvellous.  Unlike   
last time out, there are loads of P!O!P! songs and unlike the previous   
time out they are not quite P!O!P! enough to have every breakfast show   
ever playing them for eternity.

What with B&S covering her songs, and a couple that I've heard on the   
tape tree (Kevan, I think), could anyone recommend a starting point for   
France Gall?

A bientot
