Oh sorry, guilty of a Scritti mix-up, I guess. I'll look out for Cupid + Psyche - won't pay more than £1.00 though!

― Dr. C, Thursday, 30 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Last five--curiously all downtempo/acid/IDM:

Two Lone Swordsmen - Tiny Reminders Clifford Gilberto - I was Young, I needed the Money Princess and the Warrior Soundtrack Sonar Collektive K&D Sessions

But in my defense, the last five before that were:

The Mavericks - Best Of Catatonia - Sticks and Stones Maxwell - Now The Jayhawks - Tomorrow the Green Grass and R. Srinivas

Kirsty MacColl--"Tropical Daydreams"

Before that a batch of 8 Arabic CDs I ordered and received as one package (7 Oum Kalthoum--really early stuff which I can't get into so far, 1 George Wassouf covering Oum Kalthoum songs).

I also have Sussan Deyhim's CD "Madman of God" on order at the moment, but haven't received it yet.

hmpph. Seems that I've bought next to nothing since those five back in May. Did get that Beta Band thingie, but it sounds all a bit too even, or something. It's ok though. Sebadoh's Harmacy I got as a gift. Jamiroquai - Funk Odyssey, appeared mysteriously. I also got a commemorative CD from the Split Crow pub in Halifax. Almost bought a Pinback one, but the sticker price was a bit rich so feh... *yawn* I'm all terribly dull and stuff.

Alvo Noto - Transform

― sundar subramanian, Wednesday, 7 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Sundar, is your Easy Pieces a CD? (I'd like to get it in that format.) How can 'Why I Love Country Music' make you angry?

Stuff I'm waiting for:
Negatives box set
Nowhere - Ride (rerelease with bonus tracks)
Going Blank Again - Ride (rerelease with bonus tracks)
The Early Hi-Ball Years - the Coctails (Finally. It wasn't the next next time, as I had predicted.)

― youn, Wednesday, 7 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

it seems to me this sort of thing is also good introductory material. hi!
1. death cab for cutie - photo album (with bonus disc!) and something about airplanes
2. burning airlines - identikit
3. my bloody valentine - ecstasy and wine
4. heavenly - heavenly vs. satan, le jardin de heavenly, space manatee single
5. amy linton/stewart anderson split single
annnd
6. simple machines neo metro box set

the first two were bought because i just saw them together in richmond & it was great great great... the heavenly stuff all came together in one blissful package of happiness... the neo metro box set (speaking of split 7s and simple machines, which people were) was tucked away in the used record store for cheap-o, and is uplifting to look at.

― ginny, Thursday, 8 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

youn: It's on vinyl. I sat through the first side. The godawful fucking voice was what was making me angriest. What's he trying to do, parody a hillbilly accent or something? Aside from that, the mediocre guitar playing and the fruity arrangements didn't help. I'll probably give it another chance though.

And it's Alva Noto, sorry.
