j(ay): phil collins a complete wanker -
re the distant chap with his killed (?) book:
let's say he was getting on fine with the book, although
the author is left with a problem, that he cannot publish
likely? probably not. other scenario could be that there really is nothing new to
likely? dunno. OR, there is really something strange going on. and that's
if we can't explore the subject further, I'm considering opening
finally, a comment to AG.
whatever.
I hope the statement wasn't really as harsh as it seemed.

| - RightAgainstLeft @ aol.com >I ordered Mark King's first solo album > 'Influences' from Amazon the other day. What is the > general opinion from Level 42 fans on this album? It sounds like an album one would make if they needed to make a down-payment on a house foreshadowed with a dark irony that one day one would lose that house to alimony due to hanky panky with the watcher of one’s children? Maybe. S’ok. One of those albums that’s made with the person saying something like, “I had some things in mind that I wanted to do that I couldn’t do in my regular band’s set” which leaves the listener questioning 1) why involve 3/4 of that band then, 2) exactly what here couldn’t you have done within your aforementioned band?, and 3) if covering a Cream song, why choose that abominable one? Let us know what _you_ think. Don’t let the shadow of anyone else’s opinion colour your own. -Andrew Goodwin > But all people ARE generally stupid. Incredibly > stupid. And the median is dropping…. >Should I ascribe to > Jeffrey Archer the ability > to be a new Joseph Conrad if he only put his mind to > it? Mein gott….excellent point, though. I am continually completely lost on the methodology of _not_ doing something if it isn’t done right. Yeah, _maybe_ Stephen King could actually learn some basics about writing as a craft, but he is happy and content (and gawd knows the people LOVE it) being a simple recycling typist (in dire need of (an) editor(s)). Which is one of the handfuls of reasons as to why what MK is now doing is a minor travesty and a lame joke. Show us what you got or pack it in. Starbucks may be hiring. Also, the other day I by no means meant to belittle Dean, or the collector circuit, (if I indeed did) - I went into a shared lab room in which the radio pierced me with a rendition of Cher doing “Walking in Memphis” and it tainted not only the cells I had in culture, but also every one in my body, and was therefore not in the mood to try to tone down my post’s ending. Norah Jones doing “More Than This” currently has me a bit grumpy, but I’ll carry on with the ivory trade… everone's pal, Kurtz __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

| Long time no type . . . Aric, many of us have the "Influences" CD but I'd bet that most of us never play it anymore. Except for a few groovy moments, I think it's more of an experiment for Mark King to get away from the L42 sound, and explore his influences, which sound like Cream and Star Trek. AG, thank you for mentioning Oscar Peterson. If you are wondering what jazz is, go get any of his zillion albums. He played with everybody. He is the most prolific melodic improvisor on the keyboard, quick as the devil, all with tasteful blues and gospel flavorings. And he's Canadian, which is cool right there. Since I am mentioning jazz pianists, perhaps the most overlooked genius I know is Andre Previn. OK, back in the hole. -Tom as usual, free mp3's and free beer: "http://www.emeraldsoul.com" __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
