Love on ya, Susan ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 8 Jul 1999 17:14:39 -0400 From: "Chaney, Dolph L" Subject: sylvian / yahooeee / fester 1) Camp David Yo soy big large giant fan of David Sylvian, you betcha. I have the last 2 Japan studio albums as well as their reunion album under the name Rain Tree Crow, Sylvian's _Gone To Earth_, and the Sylvian/Fripp stuff. _Damage_, as others have mentioned, is the excellent live Sylvian/Fripp CD. I think it's the finest single-disc intro to David's aesthetic, which makes its outofprintness all the more lamentable. However... ...today, I found the following at http://the-fringe.com/brook/whatsnext.shtml#damage -- the what's new section of the Michael Brook website (Brook was a member of the Sylvian/Fripp touring band, as well as a contributor to Rain Tree Crow). - ----------------------------- Damage David Sylvian's latest solo album, Dead Bees on a Cake, is due for release in the UK on 15 March 1999 (shortly thereafter in the US), preceded by the first single, "I Surrender", on 1 March 1999 (not to be released in the US). There is talk Virgin will re-release some of Sylvian's back catalogue once the new album is out, possibly including Damage. Robert Fripp posted the following in his online Discipline Global Mobile diary: "Virgin may re-release Sylvian / Fripp's "Damage" when David's new album (reportedly a triumph) has been released. "Damage" was originally released in limited edition, with a view to full release later. David was unhappy with the mixing (by David Bottrill and myself) and considered remixing it himself. "The First Day" (our studio album) was essentially produced by David and represents his view of our relationship; "Damage" is my own perspective. The Sylvian - Fripp - Gunn live trio, of which I have bootlegs and archive DATs, was a stunning live outfit: in a dangerous place, endangered, and walking the plank... It is unlikely that David would allow that archive to be released. I look forward, keenly, to hearing his first solo record for many years." - ----------------------------- yaaaaaaaaaaay! What does he sound like? A lot of lazy reviewers call him a Bryan Ferry knockoff -- the heavily vibratoed low voice, the air of suaveness, connections with old-guard art rock [via collaborations with Fripp, Holger Czukay, and Bill Nelson]. But, while Ferry is a definite influence, this is totally unfair to David, who has created his niche and sped past Ferry in creative development since '84. If your interest in Roxy waned after _Siren_ or you consider the Ferry/Eno reunion of _Mamouna_ to be the artistic disappointment of the '90s, you need to grab some Sylvian (and probably already have). If you like your ambient music spiced with vocals, trumpet, and unusual electric-guitar embellishments, I recommend _Gone To Earth_. If you want to hear what Duran Duran would've sounded like if the members had possessed between them at least one (1) whole creative brain, you must obtain Japan's _Gentlemen Take Polaroids_ and _Tin Drum_. 2) Yahoo / intellectual property I don't like the term "intellectual property," because I tend to think of creative works as persons rather than products. So, I think of copyright to be more like "intellectual parenthood / guardianship." So, it makes sense to me that there is a period of time where a work "belongs" to its intellectual parent, who looks after it and manages its comings and goings, after which the work "leaves home" and becomes public domain, no longer under the control of the parent. I've had my website on GeoCities since '96. I withstood changes, such as the introduction of grating pop-up menus, with clenched teeth, mainly because they doubled my disk space allotment. When they start messing around with midstream contract changes that affect copyright, however, that's more than I care to bear. Actually, my case would make a relatively good one for a legal challenge to GeoYahoo, since a large portion of my site is registered with the US Copyright Office. But I don't feel like being a litigant; I'd much rather be an ex-customer. 8-) So, even though today GeoYahoo revised its ToS to be nearly acceptable, I have moved all of my material to http://dolph.homepage.com/ and will be terminating my relationship with GeoCities very soon. By the way, those of you that have linked to or bookmarked http://listen.to/dolphmusic won't need to change those refs, as I've already re-directed that URL to the new site. 3) FESTER Just wanted to announce something. For those of you that enjoy The Residents and/or fan-tribute CDs in general, my cover of "Bach Is Dead" is about to be featured on F.E.S.T.E.R., a Rz tribute disc.

Of course, none of this should be interpreted as meaning that I'm not eager to hear Robyn's new album. I listened to "Dead Bees on a Cake" again last night and it *still* put me to sleep. In fact, it caused me to sleep through the late-nite showing of last night's new (?) South Park episode. Oh well. Eb writes: >I still haven't figured out what the heck Livia is talking about...

My question is, who's Robert? Is it Smith? Wyatt? Gordon? Mitchum? Reich? Maybe the guy who wrote the "Rules of Order"? Hmmm...

I think he's given up on singles, especially of the "hit" variety, and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who thinks so. The question is, is that a bad thing? I don't think it is. I mean, purely from a profit- making standpoint (sorry Eddie!) I doubt Robyn ever made much money from the singles, after you deduct the cost of the packaging, the videos, etc. Maybe SYTYIL (sorry Eddie!) made a few shillings. Am I wrong? I could be wrong. (Sorry Eddie!) The outtakes album (CD or vinyl?) is going to be available from www.robynhitchcock.com in any case, unless I'm wrong about that too.

(*crash*)...th' devil!...Blimey! *yawn* *stretch* Oh, right, yes South Park. (Wipes eye-boogers away from until-recently-dormant film critic peepers.) *ahem* It was the most revolting, vile piece of steaming poo ever committed to celluloid. I loved it. I laughed loud, long, and hard. I feared that my gall bladder would burst, so steeped with gall was the film. I feared that my lungs would evacuate my chestal cavity, so forcefully and spastically were they exhaling. I thought the songs were a masterstroke -- FAR more creative and tuneful than their disney counterparts, in addition to being ridiculously funny. "Kyle's Mom is a Big Fat Bitch", "This Quiet Little Redneck Podunk White-Trash Mountain Town", and the Les Mis inspired medley before the (*ahem*) climax were particular standouts for me. I've never heard of a parody before that was not only so viciously satirical of its target, but that actually trounces it on its own terms! I'm still humming "Shut Your Fucking Face, Uncle Fucka" a week later. When was the last time you could say that of the pap that Disney dishes up courtesy of Phil Collins or Elton John (or whoever is whoring for them these days)? A nice change for once, to actually be looking forward to the musical numbers with something that isn't unholy dread. The rest of the humor was almost as successful. Personally, I particularly enjoyed the jabs at Bill Gates, the Baldwins, and the military (apropos race relations, especially.) Most of the stuff that they threw in for shock effect got a (guilty) laugh from me, so was successful and justifiable on some level. I'm a little more uncomfortable with the film's treatment of homosexuality -- Sadaam Hussein and Satan as gay lovers isn't exactly a progressive depiction. But then, I wasn't offended when Cartman apologized for calling Kyle a Jew, so what do I know? Par for the course, I guess. Barry Johnson of the Oregonian made a particularly trenchant observation, calling the film "meta-smut". Outside of the visceral reaction that the film provokes (extremely effectively, as I have said), it's interesting to look at the film as a construction along these lines. The subject of South Park: Bigger, Longer, Uncut is, ostensibly, how Americans react to crude and shocking material in the media (i.e., taking up a censorship crusade, starting a war, blaming some only peripherally connected entity). The beauty of it is that it dares you to examine your OWN reaction to crude and shocking material, at EXACTLY the same time as it depicts these cartoon characters reactions. It's a wonderful strategy: it practically dares you to take offense -- and in doing so, ending up looking like the buffoonish cartoon characters parading across the screen. It also doesn't hedge its bets the way, say, The Spy Who Shagged Me does. In TSWSM, Myers undercuts himself constantly. Fat Bastard has a little speech about how he's actually sensitive and misunderstood before the heroes dispatch him. We get to ogle Heather Graham in a bikini, and then Myers strides up in an identical bikini in a weird attempt to almost apologize. South Park makes no such attempts to be all things to all people. It has the courage of its convictions, and I admire that. Regarding that CAP review: oh, wow! That was just FANTASTIC! But for me, the clincher was the piece that Eddie sent to them, and then their reply! I subscribe to the digest, and their forwarded reply was the last thing in the last digest. It was beautiful, just beautiful timing. Take a look in the archives, it was a great digest. >known and several unknown foul words).> > >did he really use several *unknown* foul words? and if they >were unknwon, how is it known that they're foul? jeez, i'm >gonna have to see the movie again! they picked up so many >details that flew right over my head! Well, I didn't know the "Barbra Streisand" was a foul word, but having just typed that and seen that it's burned a sulphurous hole in my monitor, it would seem to be that it is the case. >know what this really reminds me of? that part in egoyan's The >Adjuster (*great* movie, for those that haven't seen it. >probably in my top 20 for the decade), where the censors are >seeming to be totally getting off on all the "objectionable" >material. You're right, that is a great part of the movie. I wonder what the Canadian censors thought of it. However, I was not nearly so enthusiastic about The Adjuster as you, Eddie. Give me anything else from Egoyan's ouevre, but you can keep The Adjuster. It was too willfully opaque to engage me. If you want to explain to me just what the HELL it meant to you, and why I should give it another chance (off list, of course), maybe I'll change my tune. I'd certainly be interested in hearing your interpretation, anyway. >i don't understand this. okay, "sex" is a category. fine. no >sex in movies. but why the "/homosexuality"? is not homosexual >sex also just...sex? they're being unnecessarily repetitive, if >you follow me. Well, I follow you, and I agree with you. But some folks have these weird, complicated systems where some sex is okay some of the time, and some sex is never okay, and so on. Apparently, it's very important to these folks to rigorously and emphatically distinguish between types. Eddie, who's your Sensei? That, my friend, was the cherry on top of the sundae.
