[Warner Brothers hype] PERFECT NIGHT: LOU REED LIVE ON DEBUT REPRISE RELEASE "Perfect Night," the debut Reprise Records album from legendary vocalist, songwriter and guitarist Lou Reed, has been scheduled for an April 21st release. Recorded live at the Meltdown Festival at London's Royal Albert Hall on July 3rd, 1997, "Perfect Night" features fifteen selections spanning Reed's extraordinary career and includes such classic originals as "Perfect Day", "I'll Be Your Mirror," "Vicious," "Coney Island Baby," "Dirty Blvd." and "New Sensations." Also included are songs heard in the acclaimed Robert Wilson and Lou Reed production "Time Rocker," including "Why Do You Talk" and "Into The Divine." Backing Reed in concert on "Perfect Day" are long time collaborators Mike Rathke on guitar, bassist/vocalist Fernando Saunders and drummer/vocalist Tony "Thunder" Smith. The album was produced by Lou Reed and Mike Rathke. In Reed's liner notes to "Perfect Day," the artist details the revolutionary guitar amplification technology he utilized for the first time for his appearance at the prestigious festival, allowing him to play acoustic guitar directly through an amplifier with what he describes as "the sound of diamonds." In addition to "Perfect Night," a one-hour American Masters special, "Lou Reed: Rock and Roll Heart," will premiere on April 29th at 10:00 PM EST on PBS. The documentary will take an in-depth look at Lou Reed's achievements, from his role as lead singer/songwriter for the seminal '60's band, The Velvet Underground, to his prolific 25-year solo career. - --- Woo, Fernando Saunders!

Lj Blithered: what the hell is a "fit of pique" and how do I get one? A fit of pique is a hidden accountrement that is part of the Friends of Feg costume,but it will be of no practical use to you LJ as it is a sheath that is attatched to the crotch of the male version of the costume, sort of like a modern codpiece.However , if you really want one you can order it from www.bondage.crotch.com who are our exclusive suppliers.Tell em dave sent you. dave L. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 18 Mar 1998 02:27:23 -0800 (PST) From: Capuchin Subject: Lyric troubles! We of the lyric list have had trouble lately with a few tracks and before we can retire the albums in question, we have to resolve an issue or two. If you happen to know or have really good guesses about any of the following lyrics, please speak up! We're dying here. Nightride To Trinidad (Groovy Decoy/ay) Fill in the missing line (Yeah, we have ideas, but I don't want to taint anyone's opinion with what we've mushed together so far): Aw, floating in a vat of yeast Was a handsome human female beast And she tried to kill herself three times But she got engulfed in living slime 25 ??????????????? Oh, she told me that she loved me best Anyone? It's a killer. The Lizard (Black Snake Diamond Role) Next, The Lizard. You know that weird ghostly faint singing at the end? It's another verse or something. What is it? Dancing On God's Thumb (Black Snake Diamond Role) You know that repeated bit at the end of Dancing On God's Thumb? There's that backing vocal saying "It's only disco" or "It's a mean disco" or something. Do you know what it's saying for sure? Got any good ideas? Surgery (You & Oblivion) Third verse goes: You'll never wash the damned things out Or meet the judge and kiss his figs And wonder where he keeps his wigs But those last two lines are double-tracked with a completely different vocal. Does anyone know what that other verse might be? Perhaps there's a live tape somewhere where he sings the other verse? Anything would help here. Again, we've pieced bits together, but it's not terribly believable and concrete. Thanks for your time. Reply directly to me if you don't want people laughing at your absurdly misheard lyrics. Anyone who has any kind of opinion at all is encouraged to speak up. Thanks again.

I took Robyn to see it on Sunday and it was really good. There's one scene that's possibly a bit scary but everyone turns out OK at the end of it. The computer work is great, the story is pretty good, the acting is great. Marcy ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 18 Mar 1998 09:04:04 -0500 (EST) From: Bayard Subject: Re: Lyric troubles! One way to discover hidden lyrics is to jiggle your stereo mini headphone jack in the mini jack input of your CD player (or CD Rom drive!)
