I do fortunately have a good excuse for the delay -- my wife gave birth to our first child on Sunday evening (13th) - we have a little girl called 'EMILY' and she weighed 8lb - so ive been a bit busy last few days.We decided on this name after the little girl who is on the kids cult uk programme 'BAGPUSS'. we thought she might suit the name Emily more than the name Bagpuss. Also quickly - whilst she is actually having a 10 minute sleep - I am today ordering the Salz 'One of our Submarines ' cd via a record store called Formic Records who are on the internet - ive not heard any of the tunes yet but is supposedly what they call 'Hardcore' music - now i was brought up on Thomas , Lene Lovich, Haircut 100 & Kajagoogoo - so I dont no what this will be like - but hey - who cares - Submarines is an absolute classic and deserves remixing & covering whatever the style. The record is being released on either 2 x 12" vinyl or on a cd. Each item is 12.90 euros & postage to the UK as an example is 8.20 Euros. Take a look at the website for 'Salz' may give you more info. if interested. Cheers everyone Yawn.

There are a few that may interest folks here... SKETCH SHOW (HARUOMI HOSONO / YUKIHIRO TAKAHASHI) - Audio Sponge ... A new band by Haruomi Hosono and Yukihiro Takahashi, with Ryuichi Sakamoto and Towa Tei as some of the topnotch guest artists. Japanese release. $ 33.97 http://www.ab-cd.com/custom/cgi-bin/cat1/CTCR-14224 SOFT BOYS - Nextdoorland $ 13.47 09/24/02- compact disc ... "The first new album in 20 years from Robyn Hitchcock's Soft Boys, featuring the classic lineup of the great Kimberley Rew on guitar, Matthew Seligman on bass, Morris Windsor on drums. A whirling maelstrom of psychedelic guitar and creepy lyrical concerns. Vocal harmonies abound just as on the classic Soft Boys records, but the arrangements and subject matter introduce a new vitality." http://www.ab-cd.com/custom/cgi-bin/cat1/MAT553.2 l8r - -Russ http://www.tmdrfan.com/ ------------------------------ End of alloy-digest V7 #212 ***************************
