Bill Lazur doesn't exist - I meant to say Glen Branca - he's the dude who mentored Thurston of Sonic Youth - and his stuff is available through that NMDS catalog (the address/phone number of which was posted on the net a while back) or through ROIR ... which I'll get on this list someday ...

This song is from a British TV show called "Not The Six O'Clock News". It was sung by Pamela Stevenson, now of ex-Saturday Night Live fame. The lyrics included are only as accurate as my ears.

Anyone know >any history about this band? > >Sharon Badian >ihnp4!mtgzz!mtgzy!seb Sounds like you both missed (or forgot) the 1984 release by Talk Talk called _It's My Life_. The title tune is very nice, and so is "Call In the Night Boy" and "Such a Shame" and "Tomorrow Started" and "Dum Dum Girl" and....well, you get the idea. This is one of those records that I burned out in record time (pun intended?) but it's been long enough now so that I can enjoy it again. Mark Hollis is still the singer, and the band still has a keyboard dominated sound, although Robbie McIntosh does add some guitar to this album (the album that had "Talk Talk" on it, called _The Party's Over_, had no guitar). Also features my favorite percussionist, Morris Pert. Nice cover art too, done by the same guy who did _The Party's Over_, James Marsh.

Lippard" Subject: More Dead Kennedys on compact disc! Reply-To: Lippard@MIT-MULTICS.ARPA Today I bought "Plastic Surgery Disasters" and "In God We Trust, Inc." on a single CD. What else besides "Frankenchrist" is left? ("Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables" has been available on CD for a while already.) Tim: Thanks for the pointer to the source of those Jello comments. I'll have to pick up a copy of that issue of Spin, if it's still available.

Robert Fripp - Exposure >> The Best King Crimson Album. Ever. > >Yeah great album! But it's nothing like King Crimson. And Daryl Hall >(oh boy!!!) co-wrote and sings on several of the song -- can you dig it? I wouldn't slag off Daryl Hall (no relation) so quickly. Sure most of his stuff with Oates is pure pap for modern morons, but the tunes he sings on on _Exposure_ (You Burn Me Up I'm a Cigarette, North Star, Chicago <--(does he sing this one?)) are first rate. His solo album _Sacred Songs_, produced by and featuring Fripp, also has great stuff on it, like "The Farther Away I Am", "Why Was It So Easy", "Babs and Babs" and "NYCNY" (the transition from the tranquil "Urban Landscape", a nice little piece of Frippertronics, to the frenetic "NYCNY" is great for getting people to jump out of their chairs).
