I first heard XTC in Canada, when they played Nigel on CHOM-FM quite a lot the summer I graduated from high school. I wrote them off as another one of those herky-jerky Devo wannabes and didn't pay any further attention, I was of the opinion that anything played on commercial radio must be crap. How wrong I was in this case. I finally got hooked a couple of years later by a friend in college who indoctrinated me with Black Sea. XTC's always been more popular in Canada than the rest of the world. Drums And Wires actually went gold, as I'm pretty sure English Settlement, Skylarking, and Oranges And Lemons did too.

Hi folks, been a while, but I thought I'd pop in real quick, even though
I've yet to read the 200 or so Chalkhills that came out since AV1 was
released. Here are a couple of Christmas songs you may want to include
on your list:
1) Christmas In Suburbia (Martin Newell)
This is probably my favorite MN song, and what's more, Andy produced
it, along with the rest of the 'Greatest Living Englishman' CD. A bit
depressing, but hey.
2) Happy Christmas (War is Over) - (John Lennon)
Great song, in spite of Yoko's presence.
3) Wonderful Christmastime (Paul McCartney & Wings)
Not his best tune by a long shot, but it's cheery and kind of fun.
4) Charlie Brown Christmas Soundtrack (Vince Guaraldi)
This is the only Christmas Album anyone really needs. The
instrumental version of 'Christmastime is Here' is worth the CD price
alone.
5) Always Winter, Never Christmas ()
Fun song, not really a Christmas tune, but the word Christmas is in
there all over the place, and that should count for something.
6) Little Saint Nick (Beach Boys)
Fun Christmas song, California Style.
Well, that's all for now. See you in another 6 months or so.
Waiting for AV2,
Constantine Pappas

Sheesh, what a pest! I wish this guy would stop bugging me! Doesn't he have better things to do?! Ahem... Kidding. Totally kidding. Actually, the reason he called was to convey some new lyrics. Becki diGregorio had acquired a demo of a song called "Susan Revolving" which was originally passed over as a potential Dukes song. The demo was just Andy playing acoustic guitar & singing and the song wasn't finished... it just... sort of... stops. Considering that the song was never released, it is not covered by BMI or ASCAP. Therefore, Becki asked if I would get permission from Andy to cover the song. After expressing his amazement over how far some of his cast-offs and odd demos have travelled, Andy then remembered that it wasn't even finished. He said that Becki can cover the song but that he wanted to finish it first. He then asked if I'd send him the lyrics from the demo! I did and he replied back killing one verse and adding two more. Becki is working on her new recording. It's going slowly but she is quite pleased with the results thus far. With the exception of covering (the new and improved) Susan Revolving, there is no other planned XTC or ex-XTC involvement. For those who don't know, Becki's first CD, "seven worthies of the bamboo grove" features Andy Partridge on a bit of "knob-twiddling" and Dave Gregory on acoustic guitar, electric guitar and keyboards on three songs. For more info, contact Becki at ziglain@cruzio.com or visit her website at: http://www.users.dircon.co.uk/~nonsuch/bdg.htm Cheers, Richard

Brown <juliab@mail.accesshub.net> wrote: > Since there are so many of us musicians out there, has anyone > brought up the idea of putting together another fan tribute? Hi Fellow Chalkhillians, I'd really like a shot at organizing an xTc Chalkhills CD. I'm fairly new to the list and am unaware of any prior CD's that may or may not have been realized (I haven't checked the archives, silly me). However, I was involved in a similar project about a year ago on another pop music discussion list and it turned out great. Here's some proposed guidelines: 1) The CD will be limited to 74 minutes of music, so first come, first reserved. Anything with reasonable sound quality will be accepted. So, come on you bedroom Brian Wilsons! Give it your best shot. Note: I want the exclusive right to submit my own version of either Humble Daisy or Mermaid Smiled! 2) Email me with the xTc song (and its length) you'd like to cover. 3) Once I have sufficient commitments for a full CD, submitting artists will send me a their xTc cover song on CD (preferably) or cassette, along with a blank *audio* CD-R. I'll dub the final product onto this blank *audio* CD-R and return it to you, the artist. Also, I'd like some info and perhaps a picture of you/your band for inclusion in the CD booklet (such as it will be). I'd like all submissions in by, say, late January of next year (the holidaze approacheth!). 4) Final versions of the CD will be made available to non-contributing members of Chalkhills for a reasonable fee. Due to possible time and budget constraints, this may turn into a *very* limited run. I'd like to think that this CD could be fully completed by April 1, 2000. I'm more than willing to do this if you are! Please email me off-list if you're interested in helping me make this happen. Also, anyone who'd like to help me with the CD booklet (maybe with design, but mostly duplication and assembly), please feel free to volunteer! I live in the most beautiful city in the world, Los Angeles, so any LA-area Chalkies, email me if you like. Again, I've got dibs on either Humble Daisy or Mermaid Smiled!!! BTW, on Ian C. Stewart's excellent Rare/Live xTc website, I was listening to the boys on a radio station show in Boston and after one of the songs, the DJ said "That was great!" to which Andy replied "Great, didn't they?". I think "Great! Didn't They?" would be a silly-cool title for this project, but any other suggestions would be more than welcomed. Well, I await your email with great anticipation!

Compulsory reading for all is an article by Walter Becker (of Steely Dan semi-fame and XTC influence; listen to "The World Is Full Of Angry Young Men" for evidence) which appeared in Guitar Player magazine, but is now found on-line at the Steely Dan homepage. http://www.steelydan.com/gas.html There will be a quiz, after the karma-equalization auction. Martin who, with only one guitar and one bass guitar in his trousers, feels as if he has a teeny weenie penie. The Monkman homepage: http://www.coastnet.com/~monkman

On drums: Terry Chambers, Pete Phipps, E.I.E.I. Owen, Prairie Prince, Pat Mastellotto, Dave Mattacks, Chris Sharrock, Brian Doherty and that new chappie who's doing AV2 with them. With the London Session Orchestra. All double-tracked... 3) Musical instruments thread: I sold my Burns Bison and Dan Armstrong see-thru years ago. That leaves me with a battered cowbell, a single maracca and a fertile imagination. Finally, to blow my own french trombone for a bit here (oo-err!), it's well nigh on a year since I conducted interviews with both Terry Chambers and Andy Partridge. I reckon they're still worth a look, especially for new subscribers to Chalkhills. If you want to check 'em out, go to The Little Lighthouse (and say hi to Mark while you're there).

Does this mean that Idea is not going to buy up their Virgin/EMI back catalogue? It'd probably cost a pretty penny (and probably quite a few ugly c-notes) but it's always to good to see artists own their own work. Which is a shame, really. I could see the luxurious treatment that Elvis Costello got from Ryko ie., alternate takes, b-sides, digital remastering, etc., would look good on our lads.

I just adore Elizabeth Frasier's vocals on this song. Her voice is so beautiful. I've been a fan of The Cocteau Twins for a long time, but I have none of their albums yet. I know this isn't XTC related, but does anybody have any recommendations on a good first Cocteau Twins album? I would like to apologize for what I said about the Squeezefan mailing list. I just left there with a bad taste in my mouth, but that doesn't give me the right to badmouth them. It was my fault that I got myself in trouble with the Difford/XTC thing, because I constantly talked about that topic in there, and people were getting sick of it. For the most part the people there were nice, especially the list owner. So whoever in Chalkhills that's also in in Squeezefan I'm sorry for what I said.

It's titled 'Fast and Bulbous'. I don't have a copy.

Can anyone out there write a song like ROO or omnibus besides Andy? Please let me know. Can anyone write a song like Andy? I'm always confused by people who want other bands to sound just like XTC. If you want to hear XTC, play their records! I'm glad there aren't a bunch of pale imitators out there to spoil it for us. In regards to your question, I'm guesing you're looking for intellectually and emotionally stimulating songs that aren't stuffy, with a rich sound and good production. Well, I've recommended this one before on this list, but you really need to get a copy of Joni Mitchell's Hejira. Put aside any preconcieved notions you may have about her, and just get the damn thing! I GUARANTEE you won't be disappointed. Exceptional songwriting (the New York Times doesn't call her one of the most significant songwriters of the century for nothing), beautiful voice, excellant arrangements (Jaco Pastorius' bass sends shivers down my spine). Score: 9.5 out of 10 (ten being unatainable perfection). Joe Jackson's Heaven & Hell is another must have. Classical and rock have never blended so seamlessly or engagingly. Incredible songwriting, guest appearances by Jane Siberry, Suzanne Vega and others. Wonderful! You might also check out Los Lobos' supurb Kiko album. The songrwiting isnt as stellar as Andy's but it sure sounds great!

I am an avid collector of XTC parodies - I always love to see them here. Yours took me back - I first got to know SWO via MTV, and my sister and I had motions we did during the chorus and everything. One thing we liked to do was shout out or whisper "Six!" in the pause between "five" and "senses". You think I was a strange kid, but wait till you hear that I was at least 14 at this point. I have been meaning to post my own weirdalifying of this song, but so far I only have the chorus: I've got 1-2-3-4-5 Chalkhills issues I'm behind I'm trying to read them all but I've got . . .

Far and away my favorite song of his solo work is "My Brave Face". However, I think Elvis Costello would have dibs on doing that, as he co-wrote it. >Bad grammer is something up with which I will not put! Wasn't it "A dangling participle is something..."? Who said that first, by the way? Musical instruments owned: Some acoustic guitar missing varnish on the neck (guilty), and a circa 1964 Guild Blackstar, a lovely hollow-body with f-holes, in perpetual puzzlement over its being strung backwards and tortured. "Green is the colour*", Karl *PS Bonus points for anyone who can decipher that.

First of all, thank you to all those who responded both personally and on the list to my request for Xmas songs. Unfortunately the only new one (besides that Band Aid song!) I've been able to find in my collection is a live version of "White Xmas" by Stiff Little Fingers. I've been in touch with MinerWerks privately about his astounding collection. I probably won't be the only one to respond to Iain's request for info on the Captain Beefheart tribute album, but here goes: Title : "Fast 'N Bulbous" (1988) - imaginary Records (UK) 12 tracks - mine's vinyl - dunno if it was issued on CD. Features XTC "Ella Guru", That Petrol Emotion "Hot Head", Sonic Youth "Electricity", The Mock Turtles "Big Eyed Beans From Venus" (my favourite) etc, etc.....need more info? Email me privately. Musical Insruments I own: 1976 Fender Telecaster Deluxe Ibanez Bass (black) crappy Korean or something Acostic/electric 6 string (pickup doesn't work) Dan Armstrong tube amp Various pedals, echo unit etc Musical Instruments I am incompetent on: All of the above. I'm interested to hear Minster Hill...... Regards, Gary Hooper.

The End - The Beatles The Beatles and Monkees cuts I can hear XTC doing, but the rest- I dunno. I try to imagine XTC doing "Bohemian Rhapsody" and it just can't be done, like having an orgasm during root canal.(hey, unless you're Jack Nicholson in Roger Corman's Little Shop Of Horrors!)I'd like to see a cover album XTC might actually do, along the lines of the covers REM used to do to close their shows. They'd come up with some weird choices that actually worked, and some that were pretty accurate reflections of their musical influences(the one time I saw them in '86 they did Billy Preston's "Will It Go Round In Circles," and Television's "See No Evil." Guess which one reflected their musical influences. :-)). I'd like to see XTC do an album of covers like that. So Molly had a couple of great ideas: 1. Baby, You're A Rich Man- The Beatles 2. Circle Sky- The Monkees and I'll add: 3. The Castle- Love 4, I just Wasn't Made For These Times-The Beach Boys(either Dukes or XTC, Colin singing) 5. My World Fell Down- Saggitarius 6. Autumn Almanac- The Kinks 7.Hold Your Head Up- Argent(Colin singing) 8. Green Tamborine- The Lemon Pipers(Dukes or Fuzzy Warbles) 9. Mary Anne With The Shaky Hands- The Who 10. Eating The Bear- Joan Armatrading(hey, Andy played guitar on her version) 11. Nadir's Big Chance- Peter Hamill 12. Let Love Reside- Kevin Coyne I was trying to think of songs XTC themselves might find intriguing choices, hopefully I succeeded. Christopher R.

As to "Countdown to Christmas Party Time" it's funny , like a divertimento, it's just another XTC level,isn't it? Yes, I've finally found myself involved in that Christmas songs thread, so there a few more: - Christmas Song (Jethro Tull,1968 -Living in the Past) - Christmas in Suburbia (Martin Newell,the Gratest Living Englishman, sorry,has this been already mentioned here?) perhaps no particularly on Christmas,but it may help - Goodbye December (John Mayall- Back to the Roots) - Shipbuilding (Elvis Costello-Punch the Clock; yes, I know it's mainly about Falklands war but...) - Famous Blue Raincoat (Leonard Cohen- Songs from Love and Hate) - (mmmhhh....)
