Congratulations to JtN & the pinefox (& Michael Jones) on the event of their offspring seeing the light of day.

The Foxgloves: Lives You Didn't Lead (4 song ep on Foxyboy recordings, the most information I found in one place so far was
here )

― Mooro (Mooro), Wednesday, 14 May 2003 19:30 (twenty-three years ago)

(JtN - are there still any Papercuts available that I could buy?)

― Cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 14 May 2003 19:35 (twenty-three years ago)

Watch them rock

Sounds quite complicated - there are just one or two details missing: when is the cul-de-sac not quiet? Is it just bonfire night? And what kind of tambourine was it?

It is heartening to see that the legend of Papercuts is still alive.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Wednesday, 14 May 2003 20:04 (twenty-three years ago)

What a surprise: N. pees on my research skeez from gratest height :)

I should add that the record approaches artistic as well as technical perfection.

A copy of this landed on my doormat yesterday - thanks PF or JtN or Mooro or whoever sent it! Will give it some rotation later. I'm still reeling from the picture which N linked to above - PF playing an ELECTRIC guitar!! B-b-b but with a capot?

Is Stevie the legend of Papercuts?

― N. (nickdastoor), Thursday, 15 May 2003 09:21 (twenty-three years ago)

He's not called Trousers for nothing. (Actually I have no idea why he's called Trousers. Or Jerry The Nipper, for that matter).

(I just turned the Ss to 5s cause I seem to remember he doesn't want to be googleable on ILX)

I need to know where I can buy this. Is it likely to be in central London record shops?

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Friday, 16 May 2003 17:27 (twenty-three years ago)

It would be nice to have a copy. Is there somewhere online where it can be ordered?

― Nicole (Nicole), Friday, 16 May 2003 17:43 (twenty-three years ago)

I just got my copy today.

I like the design, too.

Here is the cover:

(although I'm not sure if the online vendors listed there have copies yet)

Oh so many foxy boys ...

― Mooro (Mooro), Monday, 19 May 2003 09:38 (twenty-three years ago)

How embarrassing to have all the pernickety tech-geek info I provided for a home-rec mailing list comp revealed to the world. That version sounded so impoverished and inadequate next to other contributors' recordings, that I completely reworked it. S&J don't actually play on the finished version - I locked four kids from the Stockwell Park Estate in a grain silo for a week with only "A Lover's Discourse" and "Hatful of Hollow" for sustenance and this is the sound I fashioned from their urgent thrashings.

― Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Monday, 19 May 2003 09:50 (twenty-three years ago)

Blimey! You can actually order this from http://www.poppolar.com/index.asp - "already one of the best eps of 2003 - highly recommended!!!". Hooray for Canada.

― Jerry the Nipper (Jerrynipper), Monday, 19 May 2003 09:59 (twenty-three years ago)

Pale Shelter.

― Sarah (starry), Monday, 19 May 2003 10:30 (twenty-three years ago)

except thats toronto, where is the west coast love?

― anthony easton (anthony), Monday, 19 May 2003 10:36 (twenty-three years ago)

Hooray for Canada.

Yeah! I can just hear the opening track on the ep booming out over the PA during the interval of the ice hockey games, just after the Bachman Turner Overdrive number.

― Mooro (Mooro), Monday, 19 May 2003 10:45 (twenty-three years ago)

I've only heard snippets of this bitch and I liked it lots.

― Mandee, Monday, 19 May 2003 14:12 (twenty-three years ago)

The inside cover has a neat little bit written by Theresa Tzara that I found great.

― Mandee, Monday, 19 May 2003 14:14 (twenty-three years ago)

I am disappointed that the title doesn't have capital letters, and there aren't any fit-looking birds on the cover. How thick is the vinyl? Because that Pines one I've got is really thick. I've been to look for it in Borders, HMV and Fopp, but they didn't have it.

(Actually I was looking for Led Zep a week early)

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Monday, 19 May 2003 16:00 (twenty-three years ago)

How thick is the vinyl?

Its a CD ....

― Mooro (Mooro), Monday, 19 May 2003 16:18 (twenty-three years ago)

i just saw it on poppolar at the weekend, and very decently priced too. i've only heard song by the foxgloves, and i liked it.

also, i just want to say poppolar roxor!

― sand.y, Monday, 19 May 2003 18:26 (twenty-three years ago)

uh, one song.

― sand.y, Monday, 19 May 2003 18:27 (twenty-three years ago)

[Peter, you could try ordering the Led Zep from CD-WOW: no postage (from Hong Kong!), How The West Was Won only £15.99/DVD only £21.99 & sometimes is delivered on or even before the release date.]
