kate admit it. you are a hippie

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Friday, 16 March 2007 14:39 (nineteen years ago)

I'm presuming you don't have much time to cook ....... how about a home-made rice pudding made with a good dollop of thick cream stirred through it and a little freshly grated nutmeg (or buy a good quality ready-made one, and tart it up a bit), and serve it chilled and topped with chunks of kiwi fruit, peach, mango, pineapple etc which have been threaded onto small skewers and marinaded for an hour or so in Malibu.

(ed are you checking your email? did you get that one from j just now?)

― emsk, Friday, 16 March 2007 14:40 (nineteen years ago)

I did, replying.

The "through the music" bit is about 12.04 into "Aftaglid", there's a drum fill, and the stereo inage, I don't know how, it alters somehow, it's very clever. "Fish Rising" sounds a bit like Gong, but w/o the dippy/hippy pixie stuff? The woman in the liner notes is Miquette Giraudy, Hillage's partnet, and an excellent synthesiser player. She has a Moog modular synth w/suns and moons painted all over the module faceplates, apparently. Why Hillage prefers System 7 to this is something that has baffled me for 10 years.

Google image searches for hippy kate just bring up kate hudson

Lemon tart makes a nice ending to a meal, but I don't think you've got time to cook and chill that now before tonight (unless you are working from home today). I can give you the recipe for it if you like ...

― C J, Friday, 16 March 2007 14:42 (nineteen years ago)

who is kate hudson?

― Ed, Friday, 16 March 2007 14:45 (nineteen years ago)

Ed! Frances wants to do Rollright Stones/White Horse on the way back -I've emailed you about this.

I was raised by hippies. What do you expect?

Awww, I'm just about to get to that bit, Pash.

― Masonic Boom, Friday, 16 March 2007 14:45 (nineteen years ago)

I have a couple of hours or more. I'll be back home at 5 hopefully.

That sounds great - thanks! I might cheat - get a Waitrose one (they're v. nice) and then do the fruit/Malibu thing. I am not really that great at puddings - I normally delegate that part of the menu, but tonight it's down to me. Actually sod it, I think I'll make the whole pudding myself. It'll be better than a bought one (hopefully...maybe?).

― Dr.C, Friday, 16 March 2007 14:46 (nineteen years ago)

Ok, I image googled, where's the mud?

― Ed, Friday, 16 March 2007 14:46 (nineteen years ago)

She was married to Chris Robinson of The Black Crowes.

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Friday, 16 March 2007 14:47 (nineteen years ago)

Uh I posted twice.

CJ - yes, yes, Lemon Tart recipe please!!

I might have time, because it's quiet here and I could clear off and get home maybe at 4, even allowing for the supermarket trip.

― Dr.C, Friday, 16 March 2007 14:48 (nineteen years ago)

Emailing you a recipe now, Dr C.

― C J, Friday, 16 March 2007 14:48 (nineteen years ago)

Aww - lovely! Thanks!

― Dr.C, Friday, 16 March 2007 14:49 (nineteen years ago)

Maybe If I could get her muddy and maybe feed her a little she would be attractive.

― Ed, Friday, 16 March 2007 14:49 (nineteen years ago)

Kate Hudson is the daughter of Goldie Hawn, no?

― Dr.C, Friday, 16 March 2007 14:50 (nineteen years ago)

OMIGOD, OMIGOD, I HEARD IT, YEAH, I SEE WHAT YOU MEAN, PASH!!!

That is absolutely awesome. I think I see what he did there - for most of the song, there are two guitars, one in each ear, totally stereo separated, which a separate delay on each of them. That "through the music" effect sounds like he's brought the two halves together so that both guitars are at 12 o'clock, and then they "cross over" and go slowly round the dial to full channel separation again. But with mad stereo delay on each.

It's a bit like that Pink Floyd "Welcome to the Machine" trick but much, much subtler, i.e. they are not taking the whole track round the stereo dial, but each channel separately.

Gosh, that is clever. My sisX0r and I used to do that sort of thing on 4-track mixes to fuck with each others' heads.

The woman in the liner notes is Miquette Giraudy, Hillage's partnet, and an excellent synthesiser player.

I so want to show this picture to Frances and say "THIS IS YR NEW LOOK, YOU KNOW YOU LOVE IT!" though she would probably look a lot like that if her hair grows long.

― Masonic Boom, Friday, 16 March 2007 14:52 (nineteen years ago)

Kate Hippie google brings up this:

https://www.simplyfloorcoverings.net/shop/images/S_05440.jpg

Something to do with MaryKate Olsen, I think?

― Masonic Boom, Friday, 16 March 2007 14:53 (nineteen years ago)

This one looks a lot more like me, but i have cooler glasses. And I'd *never* wear white.

Went home at lunch and there was no thingbringer card. So no mando to pick up yet, booand I lugged the LEAD up the stairs and everything.

― Ed, Friday, 16 March 2007 14:58 (nineteen years ago)

Ed, Hillage has stolen your boilersuit!

http://www.spaceritual.net/tractor-so/hillage-front.jpg

Will make a copy for you at home due to stupid copy protection racket - Macs just laugh at that.

― Masonic Boom, Friday, 16 March 2007 14:59 (nineteen years ago)

Mine is more so.

― Ed, Friday, 16 March 2007 15:00 (nineteen years ago)

OK, now I'm not so sure. It's more like the guitar is in the left channel, but the delay signal is reverberating across the right channel. The main guitar channel definitely floats from left to centre in that "through the music bit" but the reverberation still seems to be going all over the place.

God, I love stereo delay. Surely invented on the eighth day.

― Masonic Boom, Friday, 16 March 2007 15:03 (nineteen years ago)

I am confused. Discussing Steve Hilliage in one window and planning a megalith expedition in another! Argh, I'm a hippie! We should take James on the moors Barbrooke hunting TC Lethbridge expedition because he has 1) a degree in archeology and 2) every Hawkwind album ever recorded, which makes him perfect for the expedition.

― Masonic Boom, Friday, 16 March 2007 15:19 (nineteen years ago)

I think we should hook up his geophysics dissertation project up to a synth and see what happens.

2) is probably not true.

― Ed, Friday, 16 March 2007 15:21 (nineteen years ago)

Finally! A chance for me to actually say SEND IN GEOPHYS!!!!

Maybe we can combine this with our Hawkwind tribute band project.

― Masonic Boom, Friday, 16 March 2007 15:23 (nineteen years ago)

If you have your acoustic by then, we can all bring instruments. Does Doom have a wind up synth or shall we recruit Emsk as synth dynamo?

― Ed, Friday, 16 March 2007 15:24 (nineteen years ago)

Doom has AN HARMONIUM!!!!

― Masonic Boom, Friday, 16 March 2007 15:25 (nineteen years ago)

(Though it actually says in the Gazetteer - please respect the sites and realise that others may not appreciate your digereedoo/blaster duet as much as you do - or at least do this at non-gazetteer sites!)

Shimura Wind?

I take it you know about megalithic.co.uk

Mainly I've been using the Modern Antiquarian

― Masonic Boom, Friday, 16 March 2007 15:28 (nineteen years ago)

Awesome!!!
Julian Cope likes Harvey Milk

Their stuff should be on your dvdrs, kate.

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Friday, 16 March 2007 15:29 (nineteen years ago)

I also got this cd a few weeks ago

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Friday, 16 March 2007 15:31 (nineteen years ago)

I seem to recall that there is a bunkhouse near big moor, at Eyam I think. Bigmoor = breakfast at the Grindleford station cafe, huge fry ups and as pride taken in their surly rudeness.

― Ed, Friday, 16 March 2007 15:31 (nineteen years ago)

Could I be reminded where Rocktor C is tomorrow?

― Ed, Friday, 16 March 2007 15:38 (nineteen years ago)

Kate check this

How many of these albums have you heard? (there should be quite a few on your dvdrs)

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Friday, 16 March 2007 15:39 (nineteen years ago)

Whooooaaaaa!!! I just had a look at Worksmart (demon application) in Crystal and OMG, WTF? It's lovely! All the relationships and joins are automatic, all colour coded and pretty and totally easy to use. Why did I ever both trying to use their built-in reporting tool?

― Masonic Boom, Friday, 16 March 2007 15:39 (nineteen years ago)

My favourite canadian country singer is touring yurp this summer and playing the lumi on june 26th. Who's with me?

― Ed, Friday, 16 March 2007 15:42 (nineteen years ago)

That's the weird thing about Copey - he has great taste in music, he's a fabulous writer - if he'd been a music journalist, he could have run the universe. But his own music has always seemed to have something, well, missing.

Yeah, where is the Rocktor? I think in Notting Hell somewhere. Let me dig out the email.

― Masonic Boom, Friday, 16 March 2007 15:42 (nineteen years ago)

Ms Case?

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Friday, 16 March 2007 15:42 (nineteen years ago)

was that to me?

― Ed, Friday, 16 March 2007 15:43 (nineteen years ago)

Parliament Club, The Inn On The Green, Notting Hill on Saturday March 17th.

― Masonic Boom, Friday, 16 March 2007 15:43 (nineteen years ago)

Hmm, I wonder if T is doing anything?

― Ed, Friday, 16 March 2007 15:44 (nineteen years ago)

It's 3-5 Thorpe Close, right under the Westway. I can't promise stereo-delay floatiness, but I'll try and make the Telecaster growl a bit. I should be doing about half keybds and half guitar, IIRC.
