If someone needs me to look around, then I'll try. Also, thanks to everyone on the list for bearing with me this first week. I appreciate the advice given and hope I didn't come across as an ass and I hope I didn't insult or cross anyone. This is a great list and I still hope we can produce a Slowdive true compilation. Thanks, Later. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 20 Jan 1998 07:17:42 -0800 From: "Tim Warner" Subject: Re: Lilys/thanks > My Lilys cd doesn't skip and I can see them from time to time in used cd > stores.

I'd love to get their address to > procure a copy of their cd... Yeah, i've got their album on vinyl (i'm not sure if it's out on cd yet) it's called "All about satellites and spaceships" or something like that (it's not here with me). It's a really great disk and i'd recommend it. Very slowdivey. I got it at an underground store hear in Atlanta Georgia, USA for eleven bucks. richard ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 20 Jan 1998 22:21:04 -0800 From: Richard Henson Subject: Re: Slowbox... > I heard that Ryko was putting on a Slowdive Boxset...very > hush-hush, and it would be out by april...It would include everything > all EPs, Cd's and even a video(multimedia) it will run for like $60 so, Good God almighty MAN!!! Where ever did you hear such a wonderful rumor!?! If only it was so... Anyone else hear of anything like this (oh please, oh please, oh please)? ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 21 Jan 1998 01:48:40 -0600 From: joroses@mail.utexas.edu (sugarweathervane) Subject: Re: Autumns sound bites >>> So what's wrong with Goldie? :) >> >> three words - TOO.

(so does diva house with vocalists not half as good as the ones goldie employs but i have an entirely different beef with that tired music.) jungle voodoo ray, now *that* would be interesting. joanna noose above the soapbox, i should be asleep joroses@mail.utexas.edu ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 20 Jan 1998 22:39:52 -0600 From: Myron Subject: Re: Mojave delay Melochrome@aol.com wrote: > i was also told there is no release date for the new Mojave 3 > but it probably won't be until SEPTEMBER. sorry to be the > bearer of some sucky news.... Maybe this is so as not to interfere with sales of the Rykodisc Slowdive release. wishful thinker, Myron ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 21 Jan 1998 01:54:44 EST From: Flwr2hide Subject: Re: Autumns sound bites thats ok from what i hear neil halstead is a big fan of jungle/drum and bass and was a pink floyd fan (and they used divas on dark side) in the latest issue of alternative press Ryan Lum of LOVE SPIRALS DOWNWARDS was asked a serious of questions. In the one asking him which artist he wouid most like to see nude he said RACHEL GOSWELL and HOPE SANDOVAL. and on the one asking which reunion he would like to see most he said SLOWDIVE and JEFFERSON AIRPLANE!!!!!

Subject: Re: swallow > anyone here a swallow fan. i was just wondering if any one had a > copy of their remix album bLOWbAck.... Yup - answer to both questions! Blowback is pretty good, but I'd say the 'Hush' EP is totally where it's at - by far! I *really* got into it just recently. Get it if you can find it! Also check out Busy Going Crazy, if you don't know about them already. It's Swallow's guitarist doing dancey type stuff, which is totally great - they have 2 EPs and a full length CD which combines the EPs plus adds two tracks - I'm still looking for that one for those two tracks - anyone have it or know where to score it??
