This coming August 5, I'm going to London for a day, to shop for some records. I'm mostly interested in 70's and 80's pop as well as ecto-related stuff, all of it on 7" vinyl! I simply love second hand shops - which are becoming increasingly rare I know. My list includes Beanos in East Croydon (which is closing down unfortunately) as well as the Music & Video Exchange in Berwick Street and Notting hill, Sister Ray in Berwick street and of course HMV in Oxford Street (a guy gotta have some new stuff as well). Can anyone here suggest anything else, bearing in mind my interest? I've searched on the internet but so far I could only come up with 'Haggle Vinyl' in Islington as a definite 'maybe'. Your help is highly appreciated. Kind regards, Marcel Rijs marcel.rijs@kb.nl ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2009 08:07:16 -0500 From: Timothy Jones-Yelvington Subject: A Followup to our Auto tune conversation... ...the writer Dennis Cooper regularly has guest posters on his blog, and today's guest post is a lengthy look at autotune. He begins w/ some really hysterical youtube videos of folks who used autotune to turn President Obama and the news into music videos. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CqrH-Rjn2vQ&feature=player_embedded ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2009 13:12:22 -0400 From: morayati@email.unc.edu Subject: Veda Hille podcast Not sure if this has been posted yet, but Veda appeared on a podcast a week or so ago: http://podcast.chrisberube.com/?p=archive&cat=all Apparently she has new albums in the works! ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2009 21:54:25 -0400 From: Angie Cormier Subject: Susan Enan's "PlainSong" available for purchase on Amiestreet! Some of you might have heard her song on "Bones." She put out an ep a few years ago and now her latest album is available for five bucks on Amiestreet. It's basically the ep with five or so song included. I mostly lurk here, but had to give a heads up! http://amiestreet.com/music/susan-enan/plainsong/ ~Angie ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2009 23:51:53 -0400 From: Paul Blair Subject: My Noe Venable dream Last night I dreamt that I ran into Noe Venable coming out of a church. I said something like "I'm really glad I ran into you! There's this great musician playing Thursday night that you really ought to hear. You know Rachael Sage, of course. Well she's opening for her..." Then we were in the venue, which was like a cross between the Poisson Rouge (dark, with tables) and the old Zipper Factory Theatre (theatre style auditorium). We were sitting at a table and I was telling her about the musician: "...and when she sings with Greta Gertler it's like that duet from Delibes' *Lakme*..." Then I looked across the room and saw the musician, so I took Noe over to her and I introduced her: "Noe, this is Eliza Dushku... no, that's not right, of course you're not Eliza Dushku--it's just that I saw Eliza Dushku out of the corner of my eye just now..." I was a little flustered, but I got them introduced to each other. Shortly after that I woke up. I was trying very hard to remember just who was the fabulous musician was, when it finally dawned on me that the person I'd introduced Noe to was herself. ------------------------------ End of ecto-digest V14 #208 ***************************
