It's inordinately hard to get outside the UK. cheers, Stewart I emailed Alan Gregg about this and he replied: "It will be difficult for people in the USA to find the Marshmallow album. My label here have turned out to be completely useless in spite of promises they made me about US distribution. I know there is a shop called Mod Lang (http://www.modlang.com/) in California who have the album and do mail order. They are a cool shop. In the end though it is probably just as easy for people to buy from the Storm website (www.storm-music.com/) - - they ship from the UK to any country." The album came out originally in 2003 but was reissued with two extra (and excellent) tracks at the tail end of 2004. As I only discovered it this year, it's definitely in my top albums list for 2005. You can hear samples at www.marshmallowmusic.com and four complete tracks at http://www.myspace.com/marshmallowmusic Cheers, Tulloch. - --------------------------------- To help you stay safe and secure online, we've developed the all new Yahoo!

Did that come out this year?? Album of the year, I think. The year might be last year by now, but that's no disgrace - indeed, perhaps more of a recommendation. http://www.marshmallowmusic.com And you can see the videos on the website, too. A complete antidote to all those otherwise-exciting albums, bands, and shows where those involved did a load of neat stuff, got the style, and the timing, the luck, the looks, and the politics, but forgot to write any decent songs. Decent songs! A whole album of them. They get inside your head. And you're happy to have them there. x Jim ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 20 Sep 2005 10:28:15 -0400 From: "Brian Nupp" Subject: RE: Have folks heard about this?

I gave Dungen a try and didn't like them. Too much contrivance, too much blatant tribute without adding any fresh ideas of their own. And too studio-concocted. Maybe the lyrics would give the group an identity of its own, if I could understand them.

If he is here on this list, he can elucidate further. Coincidentally, his name is Chris, too. When I talked to him at the show he expected it to be early October. He recorded Robyn's set with his homeboys Peter, Scott, and that Ministry drummer guy as well as Colin Meloy's solo set. Also, BTW, since it was a festival schedule, no one "opened" for anyone else. It was just 3 sets by 3 different, yet strangely similar, artists. Any talk on this here internet of Robyn opening for Colin is a bit of a misunderstanding. It was a very good night. Someday I'll remember it all. Until then, I'll offer this http://www.everythingnotrelated.com/2005/09/my-infinitessimally- gentle-brush-with I'm the guy in the green shirt with the sliver hair.

Motherfucking. Carpenter. by the way, in the *Gimme Shelter* DVD commentary, it's stated that before brian jones' death, jagger was much more in the background, and didn't emerge as the focal point of the band until after jones became "a heap of bones". got any recollection of this transformation godders? the wikipedia bio paints something of a different picture.
