Robyn Hitchcock and Roy Wood have a lot in common, and though I'm not sure they're quite as similar in 1995 as they were when they were younger (late 20s for both), they both had a penchant for experimental multi-instrumentalism. Not to mention a knack for taking the catchy pop song form and turning it on its head without destroying it. The reason the first few ELO albums are still so interesting is the influence of original ELO theoretician Roy Wood. Jeff Lynne also deserves some credit: his early work with the Idle Race is at the same time childish and exotic; you can hear a bit of it on ELO's "Mr. Radio." After Roy left and Jeff flailed around a bit -- always terrified of failure -- he hit on a working formula for making songs that audiences liked, and retreated from experiments for good. Robyn seems to have this incredible self-confidence (obvious from his stage presence) that lets him play whatever he wants without too much concern for popularity. Perhaps he's contented himself with a Loyal Cult Following (i.e. us) and doesn't care about what the music-listening public is into? Whatever it is, it's a talent that Roy also has; this is the guy who, at the height of Disco and after a successful career playing 'Fifties Art Rock, put together the world's only Heavy Metal / Big-Band Swing combo (this has to be heard to be believed). - David Librik librik@cs.Berkeley.edu [][][][][][][][] Date: Thu, 29 Jun 1995 01:36:27 -0700 (PDT) From: Brooks Martin Subject: Re: But some news is good news.....

The ruby slippers are indeed on the cover of Eldorado. I don't remember where Evil Woman is, but it's definitely an ELO tune. I personally would like to see what RH could do with "The Diary of Horace Wimp", which is one of the most pensive story-songs I've ever heard. A couple of other notes: I Wanna Destroy You in on the new Circle Jerks house-cleaning CD. I haven't heard it, because I opted for the Superchunk CD instead. I have recently heard an Uncle Tupelo rendition of Wanna... It loses a lot when there aren't 3 or 4 voices available to harmonize or whatever.

I just saw them, actually -- they're playing the County Fair circuit. They've lost Jeff Lynne, so their new songs are terrible (but they still play the old stuff with incredible energy). They need Robyn! They just don't know it yet! ELO would suddenly have great symphonic masterpieces like "Ted, Woody and Junior," and "Oceanside" to play, and Robyn would get the awesome special effects: a gigantic multicolored fish descends on the stage; its mouth gapes open and out comes lots of dry ice smoke and colored laser lights. Out steps a backlit figure shrouded in robes which intones, "TIME! Time is round! So by the time you get to where you're going you realize you've already been there!" and then the stage is awash in ELO synthesizers and that great portentious string section.

His material with The Move, and some of the early ELO stuff, reveals a songwriter with a great talent for intriguing, sidelong chord progressions and melodies, which generally, nevertheless, cohered into taht familiar powerpop earcandy. A fine singer, too. Unfortunately, he discovered Louis Clark (later to arrange "Classics on 45" or whatever: themes from yr fave classical music to a disco beat, for those of you fortunate enough to have forgotten) and fell in love w/his own voice. If there were 32 tracks available, anything left over would be sure to be filled w/pointlessly overdubbed Jeffs. The songwriting decayed to formula, the production to glistening mush (sounds contradictory, but that's what it is), and ELO made buttloads o' money. Roy Wood's stuff I'm not as familiar with: some of The Move, the first ELO record _No Answer_, which contains the noisiest bowing and scraping string basses and cellos, and the most obnoxiously mewling oboes, ever recorded (did I mention I *like* those things?).

Here's where I get to engage in everybody's favorite Fegmaniax actvity, the Record Recommendation. Whee! Show off your useless trivial knowledge! Deplete other people's wallets! If you like Robyn -- well, let's say, if you like the alternative-universe- pop-song Robyn of _Underwater Moonlight_ and "Flesh No. 1" -- then I just have to compel you to buy Roy Wood's CD, _Boulders_. This is one of my favorite albums ever, way up there among the Robyn stuff. It is pop/rock music, but done with a twisted sense of experimentation; there's always something subtle going on down in the mix. One song is musically accompanied by buckets of water splashing, another one is a gospel tune sung by androids, elsewhere, voices replace expected instruments and instruments replace voices. The whole thing is a densely-structured one-man-show ... Roy Wood (as Jeffrey suggests) couldn't necessarily play everything, but he could get some kind of tune out of just about anything. I don't think _Boulders_ is released on CD in the US, but there are import versions from England and Japan. - David Librik librik@cs.Berkeley.edu [][][][][][][][][][] Date: Fri, 30 Jun 1995 09:31:01 -0500 (CDT) From: JAY LYALL Subject: Re: Robyn's art To: doug@wfu.edu Cc: fegmaniax@ns2.rutgers.edu >From: IN%"doug@wfu.edu" "Van Veen" 29-JUN-1995 17:58:25.39 >Subj: Robyn's art > > >I'm afraid I've been off the list awhile and am not even sure whether >this might be the correct address.

The gnomes are moving through the night The sing and fiddle with delight And we eat Weetabix and sing About the joys that love can bring Ah, ah, ah, ah - if they ever come The sun is shining very hard It melts both margarine and lard But me I only dream of you I hope that you are dreaming too Ah, ah, ah, ah - I'm in love with you Terry Marks a013645t@bcfreenet.seflin.lib.fl.us [][][][][][][][][][] Date: Fri, 30 Jun 1995 16:23:04 -0400 (EDT) From: Terry Marks Subject: De Chirico St Correction To: Pretty Girls and Anglepoise lamps Soory...turns out it goes B(7) E(7) B(7) F#(2) I was followed home by a weighing machine on De Chirico Street B(7) E(7) B(7) F#(2) He said "What do you know" I said "What do you mean" on De Chirico Street B(2) F#(2) E And the numbers turned to fingers and the fingers turned to flies and they buzzed around your portait Didn't catch the B to E change first time...
