Actually, CBC This Morning is a Radio show, if you live in (or near i guess) Toronto you can catch it on 99.1 FM, it starts at 9am till about 11, 12:00 check out http://radio.cbc.ca to search for more info. take care, - -Gian, who was also surprised to find out it was a radio show, oh well.. :)

Think Pink > Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon. Yep. Actually, I would say that Led Zeppelin started the practice of not releasing singles. It was Jimmy Page's and manager Peter Grant's idea to make more money selling albums rather than singles. They initially tried to do this in 1969 with Led Zeppelin II, but hundreds of radio stations were playing their own edited versions of "Whole Lotta Love". The album version is ~5:34, and radio wanted about 4 minutes. Soon after, Atlantic ended up releasing a shorter WLL single to eliminate the butchered versions. With their untitled fourth album (== LZ IV), they didn't release any singles ahead of the album, and didn't even put "Led Zeppelin" anywhere on the cover or sleeve. I think they might've put out some singles later on, but it was way after the album release date. Can you tell I'm a big LZ fan? :-) cheers, /mel :D NP: Autour De Lucie: Immobile ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 9 Oct 1998 13:38:23 -0400 (EDT) From: James McGarry Subject: Re: What is AOR and other RIW secrets! was Re: Email from wendylands.com On Fri, 9 Oct 1998, Mel Lew wrote: > I also thought AOR was Album-Oriented Rock. *shrug* Sarah and Mel are correct, I always mess that up, I'm blaming a late night and poor proofreading :-) Apologies...

BNL were great on Conan last night, eh? Chris Brown was playing keyboards still, though, so I guess Kevin's not quite up to hitting the road just yet... Ed's new platinum-blond 'do is, um, interesting . Just wondering - the Nettwerk page says the Toronto on-sale date for their Massey hall show is Oct. 17, but I read Oct. 23rd somewhere else. Anyone know for sure? Also, I finally saw Melanie Doane's "Adam's Rib" video! Love it - very cute, bright, perfectly in tune with the song itself. And she even plays guitar in it, along with her usual fiddle. :) Much really should play it more - how is does their countdown work? Is it by sales and charts and stuff, or votes? 'Cause I recall seeing something about voting for the Countdown on their website... If that's teh case, we should delude them with votes for Melanie! Spoke to her today, and she is utterly delightful. :) Going home now, Tab :) ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ End of canadian-music-digest V1 #96 ***********************************
