silent protest
by Jonathan Wakely 15 Jan '03

15 Jan '03

A friend of mine who bought a pack of Silent Protest cards has pointed out that unless he takes great care he's still making noise (footsteps, typing etc) while using them. So it should be renamed "dumb protest" This went down particularly well with some other friends who are hung up on there being a "point" to the whole thing and don't hold a very high opinion of it. -- The two most abundant things in the universe are Hydrogen and stupidity. - Harlan Ellison

Space lp oddity
by Andrew McCombe 15 Jan '03

15 Jan '03

Hi I posted this to another list a while ago, but thought you all may be interested in it. I got the vinyl of SPACE sometime ago (Probably 1991) and when I got it home and opened it a piece of paper fell out. It's 2 pages of tractor fed dot-matrix paper with the following text on it. Did every copy have this? Has anyone else got one or anything like it? Can anyone validate its authenticity? Heres the text from the page - I've kept all capitalisation, punctuation etc as it is on the page: "SPACE" by SPACE. Release date, 16th July 1990. Distribiution Girl - Part Five. June 1990. The Party is over. What is left of the E Generation have all gone off to Glastonbury. Distribution Girl sits on the floor alone. It's 3.23 A.M.. The T.V. lies broken in the corner. An empty record deck spins silently by her bed. Last year's flyers lie scattered across the floor. "Was there any point to any of it." Was a half formed thought that almost drifted across her brain. She picks up the unopened album mailer. She already knows whats inside. Can she be bothered opening it? She does. A K.L.F. Communications Promo' L.P. and press release. She shuffles off to bed. Lying there she attempts to read the press release. "SPACE". A FORTY MINUTE ROLLERCOASTER RIDE AROUND THE SOLAR SYSTEM, WRITTEN AND PRODUCED BY J.CAUTY. ORIGINALLY INTENDED TO BE THE ORB'S DEBUT ALBUM. NOW SIMPLY "SPACE" BY SPACE FOLLOWING THE SPLIT OF THE ORB IN APRIL 1990. " How boring, another group splits" The press release rants on. The odd line caught her eye. CONCEPT ALBUM... AMBIENT HOUSE SPECTACULAR.... SOLAR ERUPTIONS..... "As if anybody is going to be interested at this late stage." THE ULTIMATE TRIP... TWO TWELVE YEAR OLD CHILDREN ARE ACCIDENTALLY LAUNCHED INTO SPACE.... MERCURY. VENUS. MARS. SATURN. URANUS. PLUTO. JUPITER. NEPTUNE..... A VIRTUAL REALITY SOUNDTRACK...... She puts on her headphones. Lets the needle drop on the record. Pulls the light cord above her head and lies back into the darkness. 2 Thirty five minutes later Distribution Girl is hurtling through the Void. Re-entering the Earth's Stratosphere at thirty thousand M.P.H. Her bed is shaking violently. The room is spinning out of control. She tries to reach for the record player but it has turned into a bank of Retro Rocket Booster Controls. The Re- entry roar is almost too loud for even her ears to take. Finally sucked from her capsule, Distribution Girl is falling through the clouds. The only sound is that of her heart beat. The Pacific Ocean is approaching at twenty three feet per second. Plop. -------------------------- 3 Thats all of the transcript - the number 2 in the middle is at the bottom of the first page - page 2 of 3. Make of it what you will. Andrew

White Room, Last Train to Transcentral, 3AM Eternal, etc... I also have a single sided 7" Top of The Pops remix of (I think) 3AM Eternal. I have been told this is quite rare, can anyone give me some info on it? How many copies are out there and how it came about? I was also told that you couldn't buy it in the shops... My guess is that it was part of a prize from a competition or something. Cheers Rich

For everyone interested in the T-shirts please bear with me. I've just had a few weeks in hospital and have only returned home yesterday. I shall 'get on with them' as soon as I have rebuilt my knackered computer. Regards Andrew > > > Very Much Interested In T's and Posters.
