What about Heldon?  They'll help get you addicted too.

I would like to hold on to some Heldon.

I like Stand By, and Klaus Blasquiz provides some vocals.   Not many, but he's not the only Magma/Zeuhl-related person on the album either.  I need more, though.

It is a great book, it just took some time for me to get into. There are a ton of different names introduced and it was hard for me to keep track of everyone, but later in the book it deals more with individual stories, and some of them are amazing.

Nice.  I'll have to check it out when I've got some time, maybe over summer.

Sounds good. I'm debating whether or not I should reread Dune.

The one thing that got annoying was the fact that Paul has about 5349 different names by the end of the book.

I don't ever remember finding that to be a hassle, although its been a while since I read it. I need to read Children Of Dune again soon.

I understood it and knew what they meant, it just annoyed me that he had so many names and titles. LOL

Speaking of live albums, I saw in the interview with the owner of Soleil Zeuhl that there's a live Weidorje album being released sometime this year.  Big smile

You may not agree, but I thought this was fascinating. I oscillate between being a hardcore Catholic and hardcore atheist (the middle ground doesn't make any sense at all), so I understand the doubts, but the loops these people have twisted themselves into to avoid admitting they're living a lie is astounding. I also really liked that the author, an atheist, correctly identified the mushy pluralism of modern Christianity as being responsible for this situation.
