WAYDTDWYL? is one I might have listened to once this century. Alas it seems Mac had only 1 good solo in him & that was Candleland. Mysterio was already boring. However Flowers demands attention.

I'd really like to sit and study a longhand step-by-step guide as to the remastering process (remember that post I copied ref: the Hail To The Thief internet tracks Vs actual release ?), as there are a thousand and one definitions/variations of the term. You could say that the LIPA album was remastered from the original recordings before it got released ( as are most live albums these days ). And I'm not saying that this is either a positive or a negative thing.... I'd gladly pay 40 quid for a set of discs and a 100+ page book outlining each track (difference and corresponding thought process behind it etc etc ) in detail... I'd even forgo some of the extra tracks for this too.. Wierd enough Peter ? ;-) Stu Amy Moseley Rupp wrote: > Somebody call ??

I'd be willing to ghostwrite it if I ever got so lucky as to talk to any of the engineers/producers. :-) A question I've asked elsewhere but no answer: if you had to pick a song or five off _HUH_ to put on a "Greatest Hits" compilation, a shortish one the way STLAS was, would you pick "A Promise" or another song? I've been intending to write up some of the changes I hear, in great gory detail, and if I do, I will send the result to you, Stu ;-) One thing is that Will's guitars sound Joy Division-esque on _HUH - "A Means To An End" sort of sound -- lots of open ringing single notes. And there's one track on Porcupine that features our Ian's vocals sounding more detached, like Mr Curtis' - -- it's the one with the marimba, and the name is escaping me! ====================================== The Official Seven-Seas Web Page. www.bunnymenlist.com ====================================== ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 31 Dec 2003 04:13:23 +0000 From: "Peter Burnand" Subject: seven-seas-moderated last digestive seven-seas Limited Uk dates for anniversary tour The Union Chapel where Mac did a solo gig would be good for the Bunnymen....stained glass window etc.. Yes, that would be a class Bunnymen venue, Shaz - dark, gloomy, atmospheric and... with seats. Mac was top quality that night, I remember. I'm well into gigs where you can sit down these days, that's why the Royal Court is also a great place. The Paradiso in Amsterdam is another pure Bunnymen shrine, it was really buzzing in there. The only problem was that I had to hack my way through a forest of 6 foot 14 Amsterdamonians and that was just the girls. - --- seven-seas crown of thorns I'd gladly pay 40 quid for a set of discs and a 100+ page book outlining each track (difference and corresponding thought process behind it etc etc ) in detail...

Though I was thinking weirdness more in the context of future Bunnymen recorded offerings to the great insatiable public dat we is. But maybe also something unashamedly anthemy with driller-killer-fuzz-riff installed. Hesitate to mention the name Kingbird, but perhaps the Bunnymen (majestic as they still are) need the likes of Ian Broudie; another head on the same level to bounce their ideas off. _________________________________________________________________ Protect your PC - get McAfee.com VirusScan Online http://clinic.mcafee.com/clinic/ibuy/campaign.asp?cid=3963 ====================================== The Official Seven-Seas Web Page. www.bunnymenlist.com ====================================== ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 30 Dec 2003 23:54:35 -0800 (PST) From: David Blewett Subject: seven-seas-moderated Brazil This from the Mission's website http://www.themissionuk.com/news/default.asp#TRLWRMTYQQ HUSSEY ON RADIO IN SAO PAULO Wayne Hussey yesterday, 4th Dec., made a surprise and impromptu live performance on air at the 18 year anniversary celebrations for Brazil's major alternative radio station 89fm (www.89fm.com/br). Wayne played an acoustic version of The Mission's biggest ever hit in Brazil - - 'Butterfly On A Wheel' - along with a version of 'Evangeline' that segued into the Cure's 'A Night Like This.' During the interview Wayne told of plans to record and release a new Mission album next year and also that he has now made Brazil his home. Wayne was also seen backstage with Mac & Will at the Echo & The Bunnymen show in Sao Paulo a week or so ago and there are rumours that Wayne asked Will to play guitar on his proposed solo album next year.....Only a rumour though....... - - - -- - --- __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
