She didn't say this outright, but I got the impression that she is having trouble releasing her band's new record on the label. She told me that 4ad is looking to change its image and put out more dance-related stuff like Gus Gus. >From owner-sycophant@smoe.org Thu Jan 14 07:24:41 1999 >Received: from smoe.org (080020908e73.ne.mediaone.net [24.128.204.144]) > by chmls06.mediaone.net (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id KAA09599; > Thu, 14 Jan 1999 10:23:42 -0500 (EST) >Received: from localhost (daemon@localhost) > by smoe.org (8.8.7/8.8.7/listq-jane) with SMTP id KAA15743; > Thu, 14 Jan 1999 10:22:28 -0500 (EST) >Received: by smoe.org (bulk_mailer v1.10); Thu, 14 Jan 1999 10:22:25 - -0500 >Received: (from majordom@localhost) > by smoe.org (8.8.7/8.8.7/listq-jane) id KAA15720 > for sycophant-outgoing; Thu, 14 Jan 1999 10:21:49 -0500 (EST) >Received: from imo18.mx.aol.com (imo18.mx.aol.com [198.81.17.8]) > by smoe.org (8.8.7/8.8.7/daemon-mode-relay2) with ESMTP id KAA15716 > for ; Thu, 14 Jan 1999 10:21:45 -0500 (EST) >From: Venmlegion@aol.com >Received: from Venmlegion@aol.com > by imo18.mx.aol.com (IMOv18.1) id OTLa020554 > for ; Thu, 14 Jan 1999 10:21:03 -0500 (EST) >Message-ID: <4540e15d.369e0b5f@aol.com> >Date: Thu, 14 Jan 1999 10:21:03 EST >To: sycophant@smoe.org >Mime-Version: 1.0 >Subject: Re: sycophant 4AD's response >Content-type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 >X-Mailer: AOL 4.0 for Windows 95 sub 236 >X-MIME-Autoconverted: from quoted-printable to 8bit by smoe.org id KAA15717 >Sender: owner-sycophant@smoe.org >Reply-To: sycophant@smoe.org >Precedence: bulk >Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable >X-MIME-Autoconverted: from 8bit to quoted-printable by chmls06.mediaone.net id KAA09599 > >In a message dated 1/14/99 8:46:07 AM Eastern Standard Time, >atholbrose23@hotmail.com writes: > ><< Don=B4t think they want to drop her, IF they=B4ve split though, I=B4m = >pretty=20 > sure it was Lisa=B4s move. 4AD are used to commercial disasters aren=B4t= >=20 > they?

It's a real shame that 4AD dropped them, as they lent some more diversity to the sound. I highly recommend both albums, "Gentle Creatures" and "Mirador." If you think Tarnation might interest you, wait until later this year when 4AD reissues "Gentle Creatures" in the US with some bonus tracks. - -- Stealth - ------- The Ectophile's Guide to Good Music: http://www.smoe.org/ectoguide/ - ------- To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with the message: unsubscribe sycophant If you gave an infinite number of monkeys an infinite number of computers, they would all get AOL accounts and send unsub messages to the list address.
