Aren't we talking about getting hold of session tracks, which are different to the released version of the track. Perhaps Harmesh already has the 12" record and now wants the live tracks, unavailable by any other means. Being a huge Radiohead fan I have every official release by them, but in order to have live tracks I buy bootlegs or download mp3s. I think we should be congratulating Harmesh for his loyal support of Remote Viewer.

I also wanted to remind him that the latest stats show flying to be 44 times safer than driving, etc etc. Turns out Sheila waited till the last minute to tell him the flight was going to be a regular BA flight and not the Concorde. Sounds like a sly, wise trick to keep him from backing out! He said he was to stay at The Waldorf-Astoria, and was that a good hotel? Ha-ha, its about the best in town, $400++ a night or so. Way to go, Radio Times. You'll recall he even said on air he and Pig were "scared" of the impending trip. I spoke to John today Tuesday and he made it across fine and has been enjoyably surprised by New York and New York's citizens. He's presently headed to Central Park for a country concert and yesterday rode the trains and walked a lot around Greenwich Village, checking out Blecker Bob's - longtime vinyl collector's shop. Mainly he couldnt stop talking about the cheerfulness of New Yorkers (I suggested he had to get off of Manhattan where the livin aint so easy if he wanted to hear some complaining.) All it would take is one NY weirdo, jerk, or pickpocket to spoil it all, so I'm relieved he has encountered none of this. None of the expected gunfire or axe murders either. There is a huge July 4 "tall ships" parade up the Hudson today, the largest gathering of vintage ships there in some time. Plus of course todays New York Times reporting Americans will celebrate democracy and freedom tonight by setting off some of the $122.4 million spent here each year on fireworks made in China.

How easy was it to get LSG's Hearts a few years ago? And I'm still looking for Substate's Rebuke You. I agree that we should buy the disks whenever possible but if you can't get to a decent independent record shop it's often pointless trying to get HMV to order some of this stuff. On the subject of recording the radio though, I wonder who else would be interested in swapping tapes of old Peel shows -- not such much for the music as the man himself. I'm presently trying to reduce some of my old tapes into Mp3s and keep them on CD -- one CD will hold six shows. I've got a pile from 1998-2000, and a few from earlier. Something makes me think I'll be grateful one day to have a decent collection of old Peel shows to go back through. Any takers?

Conlon Nancarrow. There is certainly a 4-CD box set of the "Studies for Player Piano" available in the UK - I noticed it when I was in the classical section at HMV in Birmingham the other day. A quick search at HMV.co.uk comes up with the information that the 2-CD versions are out of print. The 4-CD set is 34 quid. It's on Wergo, catalogue WER6907-2 Nancarrow was born in America in 1912, fought in the Spanish Civil War, and emigrated to Mexico in 1940 after being harassed as a communist. He died in 1997. http://home.earthlink.net/~kgann/index2.html http://news.mpr.org/features/199710/29_bakera_nancarrow/index.shtml Rob From troche@... Mon Jul 10 04:26:15 2000 From: troche@...

Yes, quite agree. I said last week that I assumed it'd be more than just a straight copy of the Peterson show, but that's just what it was. Lamacq is almost listenable when he stands in for Peel, but Peterson either didn't understand the role of stand-in DJ or just didn't want to adjust, and he's using it as an extension of his own programme. This became evident when the opening jingle "worldwide worldwide worldwide worldwide wordlwide worldwide worldwide, you get the picture yet? worldwide worldwide worldwide" went on for about eight minutes. Peel would've been on to his fifth record by then! I do sometimes listen to Peterson's show after Peel on a Wednesday and to be fair he does play some pretty decent stuff, but I think its limited scope will become painfully apparent over three nights.

Kershaw, the Lancastrian whose late-night slot put world music stars like Youssou N'Dour on the map here, was dropped by Radio 1 in May amid a storm of protest about the direction the station was going in. Controller Andy Parfitt was assailed from all quarters for his "shabby treatment of Radio 1's most innovative voice" and pilloried for allegedly pandering to the teen market with a diet of boy bands and commercial pop. As condemnation of the decision grew, Kershaw, who had been angry at the graveyard slot he had been forced into after 14 years, refused to host his final few shows. But yesterday Roger Wright, Parfitt's opposite number on Radio 3, stepped in to announce a new slot for the DJ on his World Routes programme beginning this summer. Kershaw will travel the world for the programme, presented by Lucy Duran, and bring back regular reports and recordings he has made on the road. Signing up Kershaw is a coup for Wright, who has been trying to broaden Radio 3's appeal. Kershaw joked last night: "I imagine I'll be coming in once a month with a bunch of un popular records, just as I've always done. "About six months ago I had lunch with Roger Wright and he asked me if I'd be interested in doing bits and pieces for him. What convinced me was when he said: 'I want Radio 3 to be more than a classical music station'." He said he knew he had to go with Wright when he told him that the thing he most liked about his old show was "that I never know what's coming next". "That was exactly what the Radio 1 controller hated about my programme," said Kershaw. He has spent the past few months working on a book about his travels, as well as doing his World Service programme. "One of the things I was worried about was would there be a lot of hostility from the traditional core audience of Radio 3 - an ex-Radio 1 DJ coming in and playing African music?" he said. "I was more worried for Roger Wright than for me." Guardian Unlimited © Guardian Newspapers Limited 2000 From jmsmall@... Sun Jul 16 14:50:18 2000 From: jmsmall@...

Each of the disks contains two half hour shows, I believe. They were put on CDs and sent out to American radio stations (community and college stations, mostly) for weekly broadcast Unfortunately for us in the States, the series was short lived. The sponsor pulled its backing after the first twenty-something shows, so that's all the Peel we got to hear over our own airwaves. But if you can find the disks, they're worth getting. Peel gives a nice cross section of the kind of music that fills out his regular shows, in this case a sampling of mid-90s fare if that's your bag. -phred dodgefromgrange@... wrote: > I spotted in a record store the other day a CD called John Peel in > America or something, it then said Shows 16&17 (number's not exact). > Do any of you knowledgeable so-and-so's know what this is?

It won't cover world music in the same way, but would have stuff like Brazilian punk, Lithuanian reggae etc. (The producer has alrady been alerted to Atomic Soul Experiences, who do a neat line in remixing prog rock for the new millennium.)

A friend was kind enough to scan it in... tr Peel In Radio Times This Week Do do tell us, John," he said, "all about your involvement with Abba." (I have had none - trust me on this.) It was the last day of our QE2 cruise back across the Atlantic with a horde of RT readers - some of whom had taken me to task for describing them as "a mob" in an earlier column - along with celebrity RT contributors and editorial team members. It was my turn to be quizzed by the cruise director, in front of passengers, on the stage of the Queen's Room. The director had already asked me if l still appeared on The Archers, with an aside that he must remember to start watching it again, and I was reluctant to disappoint him a second time. Delia Smith, Alan Hansen and Barry Norman had all been through a similar process with minimum bruising, although Barry had been addressed at least once as Norman and had to endure being called Norman Norman by the rest of us for the following 24 hours. Sheila and I had arrived in New York by air a week earlier, your correspondent, never an enthusiastic flyer, having been tranquillized into fly mode by wantonly exceeding the dosage prescribed an the box. Sheila had not been in the USA before, I hadn't been there for more than 30 years, and our expectations were, to be frank, low. Wasn't New York dirty and violent, and its residents rude and unfriendly? Hadn't everyone said so? In the event, of course, we had had a miraculously good time, doing the obvious things like the Empire State Building and Macy's and Broadway and Grand Central Station and taking far too many photographs of the Chrysler Building, possibly the most beautiful man-made object on earth We'd stood on a crowded intersection a block off the East River and watched the Fourth Of July fireworks - open-mouthed doesn't come close - ate and drank in Mexican and Indian restaurants and Irish bars, and spent an evening at Birdland celebrating the venue's importance in the history of music before discovering that it was actually the third room to be called Birdland and Charlie Parker had never played then at all. To compensate for this we had walked 45 blocks to Greenwich Village to meet the singer Laura Cantrell and her husband, see the house where Charlie Parker had lived and seek sanctuary from the oppressive heat in a couple of neighborhood bars; one apparently the last bar in the city to admit women, the other by reputation a former speakeasy. The second of these had a Liverpool FC graffito in the gents. Scousers here, Scousers there, Scousers every . . . well, you know how it goes. Sheila had even ordered eggs-over- easy for breakfast as though it was the most normal thing in the world. The city was pretty much spotless and decorated with dozens of brightly painted plastic cows - we have photographs of these, too - the people were funny and friendly enough that for the first time I thought I could understand why John Lennon and loads of other Europeans had wanted to live in New Yark. D'ya knew, I think I feel a song coming on. I'm already trying to work out when we can return to do the things we had no time far, like walking in Central Park doing some serious record shopping. But now we were on the QE2 and in mid-Atlantic and eating a minimum of three enormous meals a day. When it became time for me to talk that talk for the readers gathered in the bar called, rather affectedly, the Yacht Club, I tried to persuade them that when we had came on board I had been a svelte 11St and not the fat little guy they saw before them. I think some of them sorta believed me, too We saw a lot of some of the readers, too little of others, and we left the ship in Southamptan rather wishing same of them lived within striking distance. The nice man with the white beard from York, far example, and the couple whose daughter had got married while they were or board. During daylight hours we had walked the deck, watched films that we could discuss with Barry over drinks, resisted the temptation to learn tap-dancing or how to fold table napkins, thought about swimming but never swam, wondered how we were going to break it to friends that Delia was really nice despite her Norwich City connections, and ate. After nightfall we did more eating, talked incessantly about football, had more drinks, and sat in the Yacht Club attaching mental speech bubbles to our fellow guests as they came into the room to stand uncertainly at the top of the steps. "what would these people say if they knew a former Latvian Minister of Overseas Development was among them?" for example. Well, it seemed funny at the time. Yesterday, Sheila and I went to our local supermarket. The woman on the checkout didn't speak a word other than to announce the final total We looked at each other, thought about the room-cleaners at the Waldorf-Astoria and the way they spoke to us each morning as though they had known us for years, about the staff at Tiffany's who involved us in a matey manner in some sort of largely incomprehensible running gag, about Julian and Laurence and the others in the Britannia Restaurant on the QE2 whom we had come to like so much that we felt genuinely sad eon saying goodbye to them, and laughed.

One day I hope to put it all up on the web. Maybe I could arrange "swapsies". I have already provided 1 member with 15 tapes of certain FF's. So watch this space.
