Definitely better-half, to my mind (speaking as someone who didn't particularly care for JfS, and who considers IODOT and Y&O his greatest achievements to date. I think I've already played Luxor more in this short time than I have JfS for the past few years. It's an album for late nights, early mornings and the cd repeat function.) Arrangements are sparse but they're arrangements. An occasional bass, harmonica or electric guitar. Jon Brion on guest keyboards on one track. Two tracks are instrumental, acoustic-only. Standouts are: Round song (beautiful psychedelic thing with constant major-minor shifts), The Sound of Sound (well..also a psychedelic one with intricate harmonies) and Idonia. On the other hand, a couple of blues-ish songs are less impressive, as is the song for Michele, which feels a bit too private (speaking as an intimidated Scandinavian who gets embarrassed when people express feelings).

James: >>The there's the Country Boy,and the Man in Black (although I'm not certain >>that was from a song) It is, although the song was written after the persona was established, and that's the only reason I didn't mention it. I feel like this has happened to a few other folks. Isn't Sammy Hagar called "The Red Rocker" or something?

I think these kinds of sobriquets are used more jokingly by post-Letterman hosts when snarkily introducing musical guests these days, whereas in the variety-show era it was relatively sincere if misguided. >>A similar problem (one also faced by Ian Anderson, along with Debbie Harry >>and others) is the identification of a band's name as the name or nickname >>of the singer There should be a group of superheroes based on this concept-- Jethro, Blondie, Pink, Echo, Hootie, both Bell and Sebastian (as the Wonder Twins), etc. etc., mighty beings conjured into existence by the sheer force of journalistic cluelessness. _____ Jeff D: >>That and the probably neverreal but for some reason frequently assumed >>(which is to say, fantacized about by many fans hoping for some sort of >>Dylan-Baez thing) Stipe-Natalie Merchant pairing had set me up to be kinda >>surprised. I'd heard at least one friend-of-a-friend story about Stipe on tour from around the time of the "Merchant rumors", but the story as told to me had him as actively bi. Which may have been so at the time. It seems in my experience that most men who identify as bi end up settling down with another man, and almost the opposite is the case with bisexual--identifying women. I'd be interested in seeing statistics on that, but I guess the term "settling down" is a little too ambiguous to quantify. Jeff then Jeff: >>> But then there's the "Pop Song 89" video where Stipe dances >>> around with the three topless girls. >>> One of whom was, I believe, his sister. Really? Lynda of OH-OK and Hetch Hetchy... umm... fame (sic)? I'll have to watch that one again... any way to tell which one is her? I recall Stipe having outrageously long hair... Oh, and the other parodic element was that in many shots they weren't even dancing but standing around topless in a line, until the "hi, hi, hi, hi" lyric at which point they all raised their hands in half-hearted waves. - -Rex ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 21 Apr 2003 10:30:01 -0700 From: Glen Uber Subject: Re: Cats in the Cradle Once upon a time David Witzany say to me -- this is the dog talkin' now -- what is your conceptual continuity? > If it sounds quite a bit more electric than you remember, it must be Ugly Kid > Joe.

(note: my daughter was disappointed by her first boyfriend >>last summer because he announced that he was simultaneously going to >>date her and a guyfriend.) I guess I read this a little differently than Aaron & Jason did-- I thought Barbara was ascribing "omnisexuality" to everybody in an arguement similar to the "we're all a little bit bi" thing we've been kicking around. But perhaps some clarification is in order, since I can now easily read it either way, although I can't see the motivation behind unsolicited "bi-bashing" so I tend to stick to my first reading (which was fairly lighthearted). By the way, I think one could probably work out their "bisexuality percentage index" by keeping track of sexual encounters in dreams over the course of a year. But maybe not... during any given year there are easily four or five women to whom I have no discernible real-life attraction yet with whom I end up having dream-sex, and I'd happily trade up for a little more gayness in order to avoid that weird feeling I get the next time I see one of them.

The cable network has been evolving from its traditional weather news "wheel" format, similar to Headline News, to one in which it is targeting viewers and advertisers based on who is more likely to be watching at a certain time of day. "Advertisers are trying to reach people with different mindsets throughout the day," said Terry Connelly, the Weather Channel's senior VP programming and production. "Starting in the fall, every daypart of the Weather Channel will be different, with differentiated programs with different talent and different graphics, and no longer just be an unnamed hour of content and segments." For example, mornings might target viewers who are looking for information that will help them dress their kids for school or get ready for work, Connelly said. The Weather Channel will introduce two shows: an untitled two-minute segment in which a "unique on-air talent" will report live from various events and venues around the country, such as the Taste of Chicago or Boston Marathon. Its other new series, "Forecast Earth," will delve into such climatic issues as global warming, the melting ice caps and coastal erosion. "These topics are becoming bigger and bigger in the general news arena," Connelly said.

I've been listening Opeth's new "Damnation" album a lot recently. It's surprisingly good and it's chock full of Mellotrons and other nifty period organs. People who compare this Opeth record to The Pink Floyd need to stop buying records at shopping malls. It's pretty close to some of the prog rock coming out of Scandinavia lately, like White Willow. Porcupine Tree's Steve Wilson records this band, so the sound is superb. I think I like this Opeth record more than Porcupine Tree's last record (but that one's still growing on me). I haven't heard much of Opeth's other records, but I believe it's double kick-drums and moan about Satan kinda stuff. I could be wrong, tho.

I've always thought he would sound great singing a couple of Harry Chapin's more poignant songs, maybe "Saturday Morning" or "Shortest Story" (though definitely not "Cats in the Cradle).

Nor do I plan on shouting it as a request on his next visit. Which will be when? Perhaps a few US dates in support of Luxor? Speaking of Luxor, where the h*ll is it?
