The cover always reminds me of T.S. Eliot's "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock". http://www.wsu.edu:8080/~wldciv/world_civ_reader/world_civ_reader_2/eliot.html Knowing that at least the Goulds were highly literate I wouldn't be surprised to find such connections between their lyrics, art, and literature. But I may be overestimating a bit. Who knows really. It's probably the Steely Dan fan in me that wants to think that a group capable of producing such good music also cared about other sources of inspiration, i.e., literature and art. --------------------------------------- Matt Rice, Graduate Student Geography Department University of California, Santa Barbara rice @ geog.ucsb.edu http://www.geog.ucsb.edu/~rice ---------------------------------------- | ||

| Alright geezers ... ... I visited 'The Complete Level 42 Collection of L.F. Green - http://homepages.shu.ac.uk/~conslfg/42record.htm - being a man of few words, all I can say is "bugger me senseless, now THAT is a collection!" Loz, I'd like to ask if you have: GUARANTEED LC 08637 BMG/Ariola Germany guaranteed / forever now / with a little love / my father's shoes / talking in your sleep / one in a million / romance / overtime / love in a peaceful world / set me up / all over you / if you were mine / her big day / tired of waiting / the ape / seven years. I think I sent a copy to my man Win. LO MEJOR DE LEVEL 42 - LA COLECCION DEL MILENIO Polydor/dist. Universal Music Venezuela Same tracklisting as Universal Masters Collection. Not exactly L42 but... FREE by Rick Astley 1991 PD 74896 RCA/BMG contains two tracks - 'Be With You' and 'Really Got A Problem' - written by Rick Astley and Mark King. I put these tracks on a compilation CD for Lolita. Did you get the thing I sent you? I think I may have seen it on your list but not sure. Also, I have a spare vinyl copy of Mark's 'Influences' if anyone wants to give me something nice for it...? Glad several of you took up my 'Bird on the cover of Level 42 album' question - thanks for clearing it up. The reason I asked was that I'd seen a couple of silver pendants (Nefertiti I guess) that I liked but they weren't quite right. Call me old-fashioned, but I'd love to wear a silver chain with a representation of the L42 Bird. Cheers ~ Mike (Sydney City Milkman) __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
