Good point - I had forgotten about And Also The Trees until just before I read your message. I definitely have them under "An" and not "Al". So I'm assuming the record stores generally file AYWKUBtToD under "A" also... See? Isn't this much better than talking about that pesky Iraq situation?

The Feelies are more cold and intense, (probably because CR's guitars were recorded, wasn't it straight to the board?) the Bongos a little more loose and feminine, (is it just me or does Richard Barone look like Karen Carpenter in the artwork of "Beat Hotel"?) but the guts are similar, like a Squareback vs. a Karmann Ghia. Aren't both bands from the same area?

That's what happens when I check my e-mail first thing Saturday morning before all verbal circuits are firing. Ruined a perfectly good joke, dammit - I'm sure you all can figure it out.

This is indeed exactly as it happened. If my timing is correct, and it would probably require digging through all the studio tapes from the era. Girl with A Guitar may have been one of the tracks mis-directed to the Big Shot Chronicles CD in error (like Faithless) but may have actually been done during the Real Nighttime sessions (along with Any Other Hand) in Newark, CA in 1984 or at the mixing sessions in NC that winter. As I recall, Scott got bronchitis both years and had to delay vocals until later. > So was I the only person watching "Beat the Geeks" last night when the > Music Geek announced that Scott Miller of the Loud Family was the > greatest songwriter alive?

Also, did anyone know about this ? http://www.bongobeat.com/bongoindex.php This label is reissuing Kimberly Rew's The Bible Of Bop as well as the earlier much better Attic label Katrina & The Waves albums. ...where Kimberly R sings a number of the songs. By the way, the new Beck album is ...a heartbreaking work of staggering genius (this is after 2 listens so I'm only fairly certain, also pardon my copping a book title I've never read). - - Dan ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 29 Sep 2002 00:31:29 -0400 From: Stewart Mason Subject: [loud-fans] Re: Smokecds.com At 07:40 PM 9/28/2002 -0400, Vallor wrote: >www.smokecds.com in NZ has the amazing Chills Kaleidoscope World CD (all >their records A's & B's & EP's up to Brave Words) for $9.38 NEW plus >shipping to the USA (likely to be much considering the NZ dollar is still >about 47 cents. I've ordered several things from www.smokecds.com and have never been disappointed. The shipping is not at all expensive, and it's wicked fast.

Just got back from Igby, and it was good. And those Dandy Warhols have really done well for themselves between movie soundtracks and commercials.
