>> Do you know that there was a single that was produced for that "Top Hit leicht gemacht" CD? There are several copies on GEMM (and one on e-bay) both 12" and CD single (5 or six tracks). Is it anything to do with the Alice Deejay song of the same name, btw? John

Hi, Andy, I wonder if more discussion on this book might result in a resurgence of interest, and a possible reprint? Since it came out in '93 there has been an avalanche of books on dance music, most of which haven't been as good, or have honed in on bizarre musical choices - Jane Busman's "Once in a Lifetime" and its obsession with Flowered Up, for example; "Weekending" accepted, they never seemed zeitgeist-grabbing to me. And this radio play based on "The Manual" sounds intriguing, Angus. How did you manage to get involved in writing the sleeve notes - and also, is it still available to buy? I can barely speak a word of German, but I bought "Das Handbuch" just because it was the first record CD album since 1991 to feature the pyramid blaster logo! I take it it's downloadable from Robb's ftp, yes? Talking of the ftp, within the next week I hope you have uploaded the whole of "The Man", including b-sides to the 7" and 12" of "King of Joy" along with three Triffids albums from 1986-7. The Triffids were, of course, Bill Drummond's backing band on most of the tracks on "The Man" - and Graham "Evil" Lee, the band's guitarist, went on to appear on "Chill Out", "Madrugada Eterna" and "The White Room". Hope you enjoy them! John

Will Pop Eat Itself?
by Andy Bassett 28 Apr '04

Sounds interesting. This is the Synopsis from Amazon The author is an opera critic and music fan who, in this book, explores the advent of post modernism in pop, suggesting a whole range of parallels between pop today and "high art" earlier this century. Central to this story is an musical instrument called the "sampler" which uses existing recordings and original stuff to make a new patchwork of sound. Beginning in the 1980s as an unappreciated oddity, the sampler started a moribund music scene through the work of "The KLF" and "Pump Up the Volume". This book describes the practice and reprecussions of sampling, and traces the fascinating history of the pop producer. _________________________________________________________________ Stay in touch with absent friends - get MSN Messenger http://www.msn.co.uk/messenger

I think it is not particularly rare. But it is very difficult to get a record from Australia because too few Australians offer records on eBay. Only the DTMX... versions are rare promo records.

Rare Australian "3 AM Eternal"?
by John Milne 28 Apr '04

28 Apr '04

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4008492703 Does anyone know why this seemingly "ordinary" Live at the SSL 12" seems to be going for 25 UKP (or over 60 Australian dollars) with still 2 days to go? Nothing seems to indicate it's a rare Possum issue, or has a "Wicker Man" sleeve, etc. Any ideas? John PS - Hopefully, I'll have scans from Jeremy J. Beadle's book "Will Pop Eat Itself?" uploaded to Robb's ftp tomorrow. In the meantime, two questions: (1) was Jeremy J. Beadle the author's real name (I suspect not!) and if not, who was it? And (2) in which folder can I find the "Justified and Shady" mp3 in Rob's server?

Has anyone ever used this prog? I am using it to set track markers/Chapters on a VCD I am making of the Sisters OF Mercy- Wake mpg that I have. I made a vcd already but it was a continuous play with no chapters. I will let everyone know how this turns out later today.

Re: "Justified and Ancient History" full page scans

>> I joined and I was unable to d/l the files. Hi, Rob. It's possible there are bandwidth problems. Individual pages have now been uploaded too, if you have problem with the zips. If nothing else, just return in a few hours. Next week, I'll remove these individual pages, and replace with zipped scans of the two chapters from Jeremy J. Beadle's "Will Pop Eat Itself?" book which concentrate on the history of the JAMs (if you pardon the pun!) Also, all scans are being uploaded to Rob's ftp as zip files (in a folder called "KLF History"). John
