The answer is undoubtedly yes. Radio 1 is terrible nowadays. The early mid-90's upturn (they played Anarchy & I Want More when playing records from 1976 one sunny morning!) sure was short-lived. I hate Moyles with almost the same intensity that I used to preserve for Nicky Campbell. There's no wit involved whatsoever, he's just plain insulting. > Where once we had Steve Wright and "Ooh" Gary Davis we now > have.....Scott Mills and Dave Pearce. Same deal, same music really > (watered down R&B and Dance.....twas always the case!) but even less > charisma and personality and zero humour. Have to say I always liked Wright. I wouldn't listen to him for the music, but he was good at what he did. I remember Tony Blackburn saying many years ago that there were only two good dj's on Radio 1 - Wright and...Peel! Personally I don't mind Pete Tong either. I wouldn't stay in specially to listen to his dance show, but I'll put him on in the car. Heard some good stuff on his programme last week, especially a single by Spektrum whoever they are - brought to mind both glam and Kraftwerk. Interestingly Tong's top 10 UK LP's of all time - as revealed in a recent Observer poll - was almost totally non-dance.

I did help last weekend on a small free festival in Groningen. Swinging Groningen and spoke with the belgian manager (from Ghent)of the spanish group Amparanoia (sold 35000 copies of their latest album in Spain). The manager was very glad with the album Wire made year. He said they gave us a feeling that age is not important anymore for a great rock-album. How many new young kids do try but do not succeed making one. That's what gives them great respect. Forever young. btw funny band, that Amparanoia. Could be something in front of Minimal Compact.

Still sounds fantastic; I was just > wondering if peoples' reactions to it had changed over time - > perspective, etc. > God anyone would think this was a Wire list or something. In hindsight, Send still doesn't yet grab me like other Wire albums...yet. The overall, brutal, metronomic thrash of the project was initially exciting, the live version was great to see. It was a joy to hear and see Wire play with some serious energy. But Send is not something i go back to and play very often. Maybe it will mature with age, I didn't hear '154' until 1994 when it had a whole weight of WireHistory and context behind it. I was hooked from the first listen, it was my kind of music and yet it had been a secret to me until I heard it. "Send" is very differnt. Its very uniform, very strict-tempo and to be honest, i don't find it particularly appealing to listen to at the moment whereas I come back to 154 and Chairs Missing and enjoy them again and again. Send is better anything they did after, and including Manscape. But I think they have raised the stakes, but now they have milked this version of Wire to death. ....their next move should be to do something as brutal, energetic and in-yr-facey as 'Send', but with the artistry of '154' or the Dome stuff..and something that sounds like a band playing rather than a pro-tooled sample of a band..make something that *surpasses* their own history...thats the real challenge...never mind getting 20 year olds to dance at gigs.

Well I don't know what 'sweet dreams' is... It's a cover of the Count Five song from 1966 http://tinyurl.com/3b5ue http://www.nemsworld.com/count5/count5.htm Formed in 1964 in San Jose, California, USA, Count Five were a classic one-hit wonder whose Yardbirds-inspired psychedelic-punk hit Psychotic Reaction, reached the US Top 5 in 1966. They first drew attention by wearing Dracula-style capes to their gigs. After recording one album, also titled PSYCHOTIC REACTION, they continued to release singles before disbanding in 1969. I'd agree with the girlfriend re: pixies ;-) A If that's the song that ends 'Sweet Dreams' then count that as a 'yes' for Glasto. My girlfriend doesn't like Wire or the Pixies (much) either...

He who broke a million teenage hearts by marrying Blue Peter's > Sarah Greene? > Nope! Step forward Mr John Peel. And now a quick slightly unsavoury Sarah Greene-related story. A mate of one of my brothers, a shy and gentle lad called Mick, had the following harrowing experience. On thursday afternoon, after school, home on his own, Sarah Greene was on the TV - on Blue Peter - taking a belly dancing lesson. Hormones raging, Mick started masturbating on the living room sofa, only to be interrupted mid-wank by the milkman, knocking, as is their wont, not on the front door but on the living room window. He then had to get up and go through the indignity of paying the man for the week's milk. As if that wasn't bad enough, a few days later Mick was sat on a bus that was parked up for a few minutes while the driver took his break, and was horrified to see the same milkman stood not far from the bus chatting to a woman. Then, on spotting Mick, the milkman pointed right at him exclaiming to the woman 'that's him!' Apparently the bus stayed parked up for a further five minutes or so. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 8 Jul 2004 16:42:04 EDT From: PaulRabjohn@aol.com Subject: [idealcopy] kings of the wire frontier great review in this months uncut of some adam + the ants remasters. prince charming is described as "like wire playing catch a falling star". i liked that. you can almost sense the penny dropping as the review carries on , very interesting to see a previously dismissed album like "dirk wears white sox" now getting 5-star reviews and the reviewer spotting the link to franz ferdinand etc. i'd guess that , just as surely as "ok computer" drops 5 places in every "greatest album of all time" yawnfest that gets printed , you might see mr goddard getting a lot more credit in the next few years. not that he'll notice i guess , sadly. talking of yawns , i was extremely depressed watching back the stuff i'd taped off glastonbury. i taped a load off the new stage , hoping for televison. what i got was hours of zero 7 and tim fucking booth. now you may think tim booth is bad (and boy you would be right) , but one of the time-filling ideas they had was about 15 minutes of interviews with tim booth's fans about their thoughts on the great man. for fuck's sake , i have never seen such dull TV in all my life. then , to top it all , tim did an acoustic set in the "studio". truly desperate stuff. too bad even for radio 1. p ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 8 Jul 2004 17:10:01 EDT From: MarkBursa@aol.com Subject: Re: [idealcopy] kings of the wire frontier talking of yawns , i was extremely depressed watching back the stuff i'd taped off glastonbury. i taped a load off the new stage , hoping for televison.

The pop superstar said he was upset to see the forum "packed full of negative comment". Some posters had accused him of looking old and overweight and of not doing enough to promote his new album Patience. Others had complained about the quality of his recent recordings. In a message posted on the website, Michael said: "Hi everybody, this is George. "I'm afraid that, having visited the forums on a regular basis over the past few months, simply to see how you guys thought the album/interviews/promotion were going, I have decided to close them down. "As many of you will know, much of my reasoning for the future is to stay away from the negativity of the media, I think that it is bad for me and for music in general, so I find it really sad to see the forums so packed full of negative comment, and that so many genuinely positive fans find themselves defending me (or themselves) constantly against attack. How pointless. "There are plenty of places to read people slagging each other off, but I wasn't trying to create one in opening the forum. Those of you that want to carry on the media's work will have to do it somewhere else I suppose." He added: "I feel bad for those of you who have always been supportive, but I'm afraid I want nothing to do with the bitching that has evolved between some members, (many members), and perhaps unofficial sites will be a calmer affair." Michael signed off: "Sorry guys, but that's the way it goes... Peace and Love...or nothing at all." One disappointed fan branded the star's decision "ludicrous". "It's a fans' forum, it's freedom of speech and I don't think it's down to George to take his ball home and say 'I'm not playing any more'," the fan wrote. "The fact of the matter is that people have opinions and they are entitled to them, that's what a forum is for. "This just generates more negative press for George and I have to say its a bad move." The majority of posts were supportive of the star and begged him to reconsider. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 8 Jul 2004 18:11:58 EDT From: PaulRabjohn@aol.com Subject: Re: [idealcopy] kings of the wire frontier In a message dated 08/07/2004 22:10:01 GMT Standard Time, Mark Bursa writes: > I take it Television was not forthcoming.

Composed from anomalous sounds found on blank digital minidiscs "exposed" to various historically-loaded locales in Paris, this is a subtle and beautiful, one hour-long, electronic music composition that explores the "ghost in the machine". http://www.posteverything.com/artists/release.php?id=7506 MARSHALL WATSON - 'THE TIME WAS LATER THAN HE EXPECTED' (HIGHPOINT LOWLIFE) The sound of machines in love; beautiful melodies layered with the grittiest electronic beats to create works of extreme joy and inspiration.
