Allou Lawrence,

        Are you talking about the 2 cd compilation album entitled
"Where'd You Learn To Kiss That Way?" If so, then it is quite a good
purchase ... whether or not one is a Field Mice fan. It contains
essentials and other what-nots and comes armed with detailed liner notes
written by Claire Wadd of the legendary Sarah records.
        Among the Sarah set, Field Mice is up there (for me) along with
Keith and Paul's Blueboy and the much missed Orchids. They have a very
very fantastic way of concocting pop songs and singer Bobby Wratten's
lyrics are as stark, oftentimes depressed, visual, and moving as those
of Belle and Sebastian's. An output of them would surely be worth
someone's while. Also check out their offshoot groups like the Northern
Picture Library, Another Sunny Day, Thirteen Iced Bears and the
Trembling Blue Stars if you have the chance. They can compliment the
imageries that can be painted by an output like, say, If You Are Feeling
Sinister. Ciao.


the tragic dreamer,

Marco
