ah, it's back up now.

and what in the hell?

Quote This warning came from an RCMP officer who can be contacted as shown below.  
                  
RCMP WARNING !!

Please pass this on!  Important police warning. Very scary, now 
moving east....started in Manitoba, now in Saskatchewan, and moving 
east and west. 
                   
This came directly from our Driver Training People who got the 
warning.  Pass this to anyone you can.  One of the officers who 
works with the DARE program has passed along the following warning 
and asked that it be shared with all drivers.  This is an extremely 
serious matter. 
   
If you are driving after dark and you see a car without its 
head-lights on, do not flash your lights, do not blow your horn or 
make any signals to the driver of the other car. There is a new 
common gang Initiation 'game' going on the streets.  The new member 
being initiated drives along without his headlights on until someone 
notices and flashes their headlights or makes some sort of other
action to signal him. The gang member is now required to chase the 
car and shoot at or into the car in order to complete his initiation 
requirements. 
                    
Make sure you share this information with your family, friends, and 
anyone else you can reach. If you have any questions or information, 
please call your local police department. 

Please take this seriously. This is not a joke. Please pass this on 
to everyone you know on e-mail and in person. It could save someone's life.

I'll be taking it with me. Wink

I have the full boxset you see.  Alex doesn't.  He doesn't have the box with the studio albums in.

How about Patrick's boxset then?


Nope, Pat's far as well.

I've got just you on the snipper. Wink

And I thought you were going camping, you can't take something from the prog world with you there. 

So there you have it. Boxset stays home. I grab it.

Use Googlemail.  It's never failed for me.

Rico, on second thoughts, head for London and take Chris Syzygy's boxset.  It's closer to you too.

actually, doing the math in my head... there may only be 1 important e-mail - the other two are daily subscriptions and I had a few unread last night that I was going to attend to today.

Still, the important one is about a camera job, which I hope I don't lose because of stupid hotmail.

Pat, have you seen the size of Fred Frith's discography? Shocked

It's going to take me ages to get all those!  I have Gravity and that's all so far.

I may get that Magma box yet...

A question: does Konhtarkosz come in an ungainly 2-CD Dual Case?  Mine is broken.

So buying The Art Box is cheaper overall than buying the albums individually.

£40.00

A bargain!

Big smile

Winter Songs is £12:50 on its own.

So the others would be as well.

So you basically get all the albums for about £10 or less ('cause you get two other CDs too).

I have that Aksak Maboul album on my computer but not on CD, so it's a replacement for that.  I also have all the Art Bears albums on my machine and the debut The Science Group album.

Spoors I don't have and haven't heard.

A 6 CD box containing:

1. The three original releases, properly re-mastered, - when we did them before, the technology was much poorer. Stunningly re-mastered by Bob Drake from 24 bit transcriptions of the original tapes and in newly designed Digipacks, same cover art, of course.

2. Art Bears Revisited -A double CD of re-mixes, re-workings and (mostly) new pieces made from Art Bears multi-track masters by JOHN OSWALD, THE RESIDENTS, CHRISTIAN MARCLAY, FRED FRITH, CHRIS CUTLER, BIOTA, OTOMO YOSHIHIDE/GROUND ZERO, BOB DRAKE JON ROSE, OSSATURA, WARRIC SWINNEY/KALAHARI SURFERS, WHEN, THOMAS DIMUZIO, ANNIE GOSFIELD ROGER KLEIR,ANDREA ROCCA, VITOR RUA, JOCELYN ROBERT,MUSCI/ VENOSTA/ MARIANI, MASSIMO SIMONINI, HERB HEINZ. MARTIN ARCHER, YASUSHI UTSUNOMIYA, JON LEIDECKER/WOBBLY, STEVAN KOVACS TICKMAYER and BRIAN WOODBURY.
6 years in the making, this is an amazing catalogue of imagination and great music.
Digi-packed with a cover art by EM Thomas, who did all three original art bears covers and containing Art re-mixes in the booklet as well as comprehensive information. This double also contains Collapse from the Ralph Records single, All Hail from the Recommended Sampler and one previously unreleased and unfinished track completed by Fred Frith and Chris Cutler for this release.

3. A free extra CD only available with the box (there are reasons) containing further re-workings by John Oswald, Bob Drake, Fred Frith, Biota, Yasushi Utsunomiya, as well as live Art Bears tracks and a Duck and Cover cover.

4. A thick book of artwork, articles, notes, interviews and commentary on the material, the work process, the tour and the band in general, with photographs, documents and artwork.

Did you see my recent ReR order, Patrick?

It's epic.


The third box hopefully is on its way and should be here soon.

I didn't see the recent order, where is it?

My birthday is in a few weeks...I anticipate a Wayside order of gargantuan proportions LOL


Just ordered:

Art Bears - The Art Box
The Science Group - ...a mere coincidence
The Science Group - Spoors
Aksak Maboul - En peu de l'ame des bandits
1870 - Milos de una Resureccion
