Subject: the previous message

Note that the list member who sent the last message (the forward thing)
to the list has been thrown off the list as:

 a) it generated an extra digest issue to be created (which is going
    to disrupt the whole digest series)
 b) it was completeley unrelated to the mailing list topic(s)
 c) it was totally against any kind or form of Internet etiquette
 d) it generated a lot of extra work
 e) I suspect no one wanted the extra 18k in their mailboxes
    (especially those who had to download and pay extra for it)

Subject: Just for a day

This is just a short impression i felt when reading all the mails
concerning the Pygmalion CD. Everybody mentions either Pygmalion or
Souvlaki as the best thing Slowdive ever made. But no one mentions "Just
for a day". To me this is the ideal mix of sounds (which were more
important in the early days) and song (which dominates later). And what
is more particular, this album contains their best song ever "Primal".
Although I agree that Some Velvet Morning is wonderful as well. But that
discussion was closed, I suppose.

     Personally, I think the best Windy and Carl album to start off 
on is Drawing of Sound.

Hi...Unfortunately the Sound-L list isn't around anymore.  I started and
ran the Sound-L list.  I had to take it down because I was running it from
the place that I worked, and I got a new job.  I would *LOVE* to start that
list up again, but my home service provider doesn't offer any kind of
listserv.  If anyone has access to a listserv, please let me know!!!!!

For those of you wondering...the Sound-L list was a mailing list (like this
one) that was for the discussion of guitar/studio effects, and general
sound manipulation.

Thanks for listening!

Subject: needed: slowdive official CDs

Hello,

If anyone could possibly help...
I need to repurchase all of the Slowdive catalogue-the 3 albums and all
of the EPs. This material was stolen from me recently and to my dismay
I've discovered all of the albums except for the Creation pressing of
'Just For A Day' have been deleted. If anyone finds any EPs or LPs at
their local record store, please email me! I'd be glad to pay for the
costs of the dics, postage & a little extra. I would also be more than
happy to trade a few live tapes (

cheers
chris

Subject: Unidentified subject!

 Has anyone ever considered trying to buy the USA rights to
 albums like Against Perfection and Fake from SBK Records?
 I wonder if it's even possible, and how much it'd be.

I sent the above message to the Adorable list.
It's generated a bit of discussion, and it is relevant to 
Slowdive.   

It's tough to find Just For A Day and Souvlaki.  Rather discouraging
when you introduce a friend to them, but he can't buy them.

It'd be pretty darn neat to buy the USA album rights from SBK.
they aren't making any money from the albums now, so if someone
approached them for the rights, one would think they'd be reasonable...

I think it might be worth exploring.

Evan

Sounds like a good idea. I know a few connections in the record
industry. I'll ask around and see what I can find out.
