Sinister: 10 Roddington Place

[Keith Watson]

Gene Simmons is in this week's NME, sharing his favourite records with us -
one of which is "I wanna hold your hand" which Gene must find amusing I
would guess seen as he's allegedly had more than a billion women! He also
points out that he's always been a fan of Jonathan King, and that his record
for New Year's Eve 1999 is Jonathan King's classic "Everyone's gone to the
moon", he's a fan of the way Mr.King is able to make music and do business.
Great stuff, Gene is apparently good at making music and doing the business!

    On a similar note, the wonderful Beta Band have been forced to rerecord
a track which includes the lyric from the catalyst of all things Welsh in
music, and starting point for Catatonia, the Manics, the Sterephonics etc.
Welsh rock princess Bonnie Tyler's "Total eclipse of the heart". Apparently
Jim Steinman (Meatloaf songwriter pop-pickers) refused the Betas the right
to release the track as he plans to ressurect the track soon - there's one
to look forward to.

    The Beta Band play in Edinburgh on June 12th, and I advise everyone to
go and see them, they're really bangin'

    There's a program on the telly about Mercury Rev tonight too, it's on
about 10 past 1 in the morning.


Cheers,
  Keith.
