The sleeve art is just beautiful, and I dearly hope that the feather motif is carried through for the "Greenman" single, too. Question: What image do you all suppose might appear on the sleeve art? I suppose they could just use a traditional green man carving or sculpture against the peacock feather, but that would be kind of disappointing to me; the previous two sleeves featured a simple object from nature, and I'd hate to see those little still-lifes disrupted by a face. What I'd really love to see against the feather, and what I think would convey the sense of the song well, is a pine cone. Apart from being interesting and beautiful, a pine cone would evoke the image of the forest lord as well as tie in with the "oak and pine" lyric. I can't wait to find out. Hope our Brit contingent will keep us informed. -Janis

I recall Dave Gregory mentioned really liking The La's album. "Beat Mama" is a terrific, uptempo number! But now I'm wondering whether the rest of "Magic Hour" is any good. NME didn't give it a rave review, saying "we've heard it all before," but then again I think they are wrong about "Beat Mama" anyway. Why is the British musical press so tough on some of its best acts? (If anyone out in Chalkland owns Magic Hour, drop me a line.) The other two songs on this single sound like vintage Blur. DUNCAN SHEIK - "Humming"...stronger and a looser approach than on his debut album. "Bite Your Tongue," "Varying Degrees of Con-Artistry," and "That Says It All." I have to credit XTC for my appreciation of the arrangement of songs, and various sounds playing off other sounds - not merely just a "cranking up" of volume, but various tones playing off each other. God, I'm old, I'm listening to Duncan Sheik! :-) ECHO & THE BUNNYMEN - "What Are You Going to Do With Your Life?" ...an impressive album! They haven't sounded this good since 1984's "Ocean Rain." And working with The London Symphony Orchestra, it's tempting to draw parallels to AV, Volume 1. Many may want to throw red ripe tomatoes at me for stating this, but I think The Bunnymen are more successful than XTC in retaining their intact pop unit "sound" even though working with a full orchestra. TAXIRIDE - "Imaginate" - This one is currently at the Tower listening stations. If you must check out only one track, let it be "Ice Cream." Check out some other tracks, too, these guys are good. Wes

However, I don't regret trying LSD in my college days in the early 80's, it showed me that certain things are possible with the human mind and spirit that I would not have believed had I not gone that route. LSD and other psychedelic experiences showed me the way, and I said "thank you, I'll walk the rest of the way." LSD is like taking a helicopter to the top of a mountain; you may see more of the mountain in a short period of time, but you can't land, and you have to come back down sometime. Climbing the mountain yourself is so much more rewarding, but admittedly harder work. Isn't the work what makes it rewarding, though? And remember to push your car from the road! :-) Chris

Colin is also a genius. Not as many songs, but they're all so good!!! So here's a little message about Colin. I made an XTC tape for my friend and his wife. I called side A "Colin" and side B "Andy". Chuck a bunch of those Colin songs together, and you really have something!!! Like many Chalkhillers, the album which turned me into an XTC xtrovert was "Skylarking", and it is upon that album that Colin goes beserk with no less than 5 tracks. I think "Sacrificial Bonfire" is one of the band's best songs - "reign over good - banish the bad". Andy said in an interview that he (an indoors person) writes songs about outdoor things, while Colin (an outdoors person) writes songs about indoors things. Hence "Bungalow", "Dying", "Fruit Nut", "My Bird Performs", "Washaway", "Frivolous Tonight". Colin's ON TO SOMETHING with these songs; he's driven to write about detail, simplicity, the mundane, all with a sense of sadness among the satire. These are GREAT SONGS. My job requires me to drive around Australia in rental cars; so I always bring along my XTC tapes, and off I go, singing along in my pissweak voice, but no-one can hear me, not even myself, as Colin and Andy drown out my attempts. But my vocal chords and lungs are working away, joining in with the vibrations. "Easter Theatre" is a great one to sing along to - try it if you already haven't. Can't bloody wait for "Apple Venus Vol. 2". It's the 4th big cultural event for me in 1999/2000, after "Apple Venus Vol. 1", "Star Wars Episode 1", "Eyes Wide Shut". Bring it on, boys.

Long, soporific, nostalgic post about Detroit, of all places!) A bit regional here but... Wesley posted about Dave Dixon's demise. Wesley and J.D. SMX have had some edialogue with me about Detroit and I thank them for that. I have fond memories of when Bookies was considered (albeit by less than totally cool sources) as the "premier punk club in the United States" circa 1978... grainy, slightly hazy memories of a television show called "Detroit Tubeworks" of live, local concert footage that exposed me to a bunch of new material circa 1968/9?... a radio station organized "kite-in" (W4?) on Belle Isle (it rained and everyone simply got stoned in their cars) circa 1975 and Dave Dixon, et al, at WABX. It was probably only six or seven years ago that I felt REALLY dopey about keeping my "WABX Air Aces" T-shirt and it hit the rag bin (still in good shape but wouldn't fit me anymore anyway). The hat with the pig came later with a logo knicked from the Blodwyn Pig LP. Later years, I found Dave on WDET where I listened to Mike Halloran (big XTC fan) doing a punk and new wave showed entitled "Radios In Motion" and Judy Adams' "Morphogenesis" program (largely responsible for opening my ears to so much material). I still have cassette tapes of several shows somewhere around here. I think it's time to dig them up. Thank you Wesley for the posting. I know that it probably doesn't seem XTC related but it's like tracing your geneology... the links that appear can provide a depth of feeling that can only be felt and not described (yeah, yeah... HARRISON could probably describe). Though I'm positive that Detroit conjures abhorent images in many minds, the value of growing up in the Motown era and then hitting the clubs in that post-Motown musical climate with The Plugs, The Motor City Mutants, The Cubes, Exotic Surgery, The 3D Invisibles, Jerry Vile and The Boners, Mr. Unique and The Liesure Suits, Art In America, The Jelly and so many that I can't remember off the top of my head (and XTC at the Michigan Theatre, which I missed) and so many other local bands in places like Bookie's Club 870, Lili's and The Red Carpet... whew... the energy was inspiring. ...oh... wait... that conjures abhorent images in MY mind. BUT WHAT GREAT ABHORENT IMAGES! I wish you were there to see and feel it. Yeah, some of it, in retrospect was pretty lame, but it was the moment, the energy (or lack thereof), the attire (or lack thereof), the cross-culture interest (or lack thereof), the "FUCK DEMOGRAPHICS, LET'S DANCE!" attitude. I feel old now. I know it wasn't a singular thing and that there were plenty of important musical things going on in many cities around the world but... those were heady times and Detroit had so much going on in so many genres that one was flummoxed about an appropriate hairstyle. Just as XTC have spent so much time at the outer edge, so did the early FM "radio personalities" and almost every band in Detroit in the 70's. There were a few exceptions that signed record deals but most were in the more "rock" vein like The Romantics, 707, Adrenelin, Ted Nugent (oooh, let me detail the local pride), Bob Seger (like a @#*%$&! rock, Bob) and Art In America, but most stiffed. That's NOTHING compared to what was going on in the locals clubs. Dream well, Dave Dixon, and thanks. Man, I really hate mortality references but it brought back a lot of big fun times.

Not all *that* novel..."How Easter Theatre Came To Be" showed Andy doing
his impression of Paul McCartney on "Oobu Joobu"...interesting listening
in each case, but I wished for real B-sides to the Flaming Pie singles
(like Paul had for his singles from Off the Ground) just like I wished for
real B-sides to the Apple Venus ones.
Did anyone else notice how much Andy was acting like Paul on "How Easter
Theatre Came To Be", or do all musicians get like that when they are
explaining their songs?

Subject: Bags Of Fun
Dear Chalkers,
this message is for serious xtc collectors only!
i've recently "discovered" another variation on an all too familar
theme... yet another edition of the English Settlement album.
There appear to be two different editions of the inner sleeve from the
German single LP version (Virgin Ariola 204 446-320).
Also came across a first edition Go 2 album that looked really awful
except for the original record bag that was hand-stamped in red ink
with the following text:
this is an inner sleeve
or bag for an album
by XTC called Go 2
with a catalogue number
of V2108
surf to http://www.knoware.nl/mmello/users/bags.html for some
scans of the above...

Subject: The Hand That Feeds Us
Dear Chalkers,
Dunks said this about the AV singles:
> >Cute package, I guess, but
> >does it really represent the sort of value and fun XTC singles used to
> >provide? Not really.
Sorry? Of course it does!
Honestly, what is there to complain about?
The songs are great, both the demo versions and the talks are
enlightening end very informative (not to mention entertaining!)
Their packaging is beautiful, extremely stylish and in line with the
album design. the handwritten and printed lyrics are a great plus for
the serious XTC scholar.
And don't forget: there are no 'extra bonus tracks' available right
now; all the material that was recorded and finished during the AV1
sessions is already on the album.
But what really should convince you to get these singles is the fact
that they are by XTC. I mean, if their fans aint gonna buy their
product who will?

"If music be the food of love..." APPLE - nature; goodness; food; nourishment; staple European seasonal fruit (which can also be made into alcoholic cider); flowers in spring, fruit falls in autumn - "American as apple pie" (Andy's new partner Erica Wexler is American) - associations with school and childhood - "apple for the teacher" - BIBLICAL: temptation, knowledge - Eve; conventionally used as the biblical Fruit of the Tree of Knowledge (of Good and Evil); in Genesis, Eve is tempted to eat of The Fruit by the Serpent / Devil; she in turn tempts Adam; they eat and they fall from Grace, and are cast out of Eden - GREEK MYTH: apple=discord; Helen of Troy; in Greek myth a golden apple - the Apple of Discord is the object given to Paris by Eris (Strife), which he is to present to his choice of the most beautiful of the Olypmian goddesses; his choice of Aphrodite offends Hera and Athena and is the cause of the Trojan War - BEATLES - Apple was the Beatles record label, established in 1968 VENUS - MYTHICAL - goddess of love (Roman); equivalent to Aphrodite (Greek) and Isis (Egyptian); linked to /derived from ancient worship of Earth Mother; focus of important cults in ancient world; (of Isis etc) Venus cults co-opted into early Christian church through development of the cult of the Virgin Mary - morning / evening star, depending on season; brightest object in the sky other than the moon and usually the first/last celestial object visiable after sunset/before sunrise; - wishing: "first star I see tonight" - seasonal marker: orbit of planet Venus was an vital indicator of seasonal changes; many cultures had crucial rituals and religious activities associated with the rising of Venus at the spring and autumn equinox, and built elalborate structures (e.g. Stonehenge) with sighting points to mark the rising/setting of Venus at these times - BEATLES: possible ref. to McCartney's 1974 solo album titled "Venus and Mars" As I said, just stray thoughts, but I perhaps this will spark a few more ideas?

So my favorite original version song would have to be "Ball and Chain" Does anyone else agree with me on this?!?!" What a silly bunt...... The original version of English Settlement was the double LP in places like Canada and the UK and most everywhere else.. Virgin / Epic in the US 'pre-packaged' the 2 LPs worth of music into one LP. I would assume they thought no-one would fork out the bucks for a double LP or weren't willing to make the effort to release the full set.. Yes, Canada did eventually offer a single LP of 'English Settlement' as well. Must've been some pressure from down south or something. Conformity...... The band is from the UK so I would say the official release of English Settlement would be the UK issue which was 2 solid albums of great music. No single LP version out of the UK..... Just the facts. Brent yes I enjoy 'English Settlement' - all of it and have since it's release.

I wish to respond to his question, >This change, like so many others engendered by digital technology, >is >inevitable. The question, I suppose, is how do we -- both as fans of >intelligent music and as musicians (because many of us here are) > >approach/deal with this change? I am struck by this scenario's resemblance to the popular music market of the mid-1960's, where the top artists strove to put as many single-worthy songs as possible on their albums (Beatles, Stones, Kinks, Beach Boys, Moby Grape, and so forth). At the same time, singles were viewed much more as entities in their selves, as opposed to just marketing loss leaders for album sales as they are today. Artists would gain new fans via single sales, while continuing to sell entire albums to their core constituency. The per unit cost of singles would still be higher than for albums (nothing to do with production costs, everything to do with marketing). However, the cost of the entire album could be pro-rated according to songs that had already been purchased, making it more likely for new fans to check out the album after getting a little taste. Of course, single versions can be different from album versions of the same song, in which case the pro-rated cost of the album could be slightly higher. But what of the artists that do not deal in catchy, single-type songs? One response would be free distribution of selected songs that the artist and management working together would determine had the goods to hook in new fans. These more abstruse artists may also be driven to create music with a greater trendiness factor, for the purpose of hooking new fans. I guess the danger to creativity here would be the misrepresentation of what a particular artist is all about. It could also have the positive effect of introducing more creativity and new ideas to trendy music (like, I'd love to hear Robert Fripp soloing over a Snoop Dog track. That's just the sort of sickie I am.) -Bob Crain

Date: Tue, 06 Jul 1999 12:44:58 EST Greetings Chalkers, Having been out of touch (due to embarrassment at running away at the mouth in my last posting) it is good to come back and find some more good stuff happenning. All the following refers to postings in Vol 5 No 228. Mark Strijbos mentioned the link of Apple Venus with the Aphrodite/Helen of Troy myth. It reminds me, a favourite of mine is the "Rock Opera" Paris co-penned by Jon English...a damn fine muso. It doesn't touch on the apple-giving story, so no fresh insights on what Apple Venus means, but if you see a copy give it listen...you never know. Daniel Wrzesinski recommended Head. I couldn't agree more, a video copy of that is a high-rotation item on my VCR. Head the album is also good, it contains some of The Monkees strongest material. If you see the Rhino Records reisuues get them they are great quality. Also, does anyone have a tape of The Monkees TV special from 1968 (?) called 33 1/3 Revolutions per Monkee ? I saw this years ago (25+) and would like to see it again for reference. Mail if off-line and we can discuss trades. Anyway, I must run for my train.
