Wish I could fella - sounds right up my ballpark.

But allak - playing out in Surrey.

I liked your intro BTW - backing yourself into a Mancunian corner starting off that psych night.

I'ld love to set up a psych night around these parts, but near me, the venues run fairly dry. There must be a little basement pubby gaff that would want to put a psych night on! Anybody?

Eeeee, that would be right nice, fella. I'll keep that in mind.

In the meantime, I could get a little US psych set done in the coming weeks, if you're interested.

Any chance of putting the downloads up as mp3's, besides RealPlayer files, 'cos I cann't use RealPlayer here?

I have said this so many times it's not true. I recall discussing a Heavy Psych-Prog-funk nite with Cheebs last year? I really wanted to do this kind of music justice by keeping it to an allniter type thing, but that would be a no go in London.

I am so down for getting a proper [funky] deep-psych nite off the ground but unless the Face or Time Out decide it's groovy, we be fuckered.

I've done things like this privately in the past and as with most deeper club nite's, it's all about getting the right heads in the place, people with open minds, atleast musically. That aint as easy as it sounds. Especially in a city where the hip factor is all that matters. Personally, I think a deep 'n' weird nite of twisted electronic music is as cool as it gets, but what the hey hey hey, I'm a monkee!

Playing retro music all nite long and bringing in the crowds as well as the cheese to maintain this idea is virtually impossible in this city.

Impossible that is, unless you are working in Soul Jazz that is.

Then you can do no wrong.

Explain that to me Jesus?

[La-Soul-Fiend]

And if the northerners want gusest spots around Polish bizniz, I think i could hold down, oh, a few hours atleast! That's my bag right there son! Can we get a Nieman inna bowl cut style smilie PLEEEEEEEZ?

I personally worship Polanski and actually had the opportunity of meeting him a long time ago in a West London Polish deli. I wanted to express my absolute fascination and admiration for his life's work, especially Knife in the Water, Cul-de-Sac and Rosemary's Baby [heavy OST time!] But instead, I spluffed my coffee and gestured to keep keeping on.
I left soon afterwards. I'd like to think he felt my warmth and complete respect.

Does anybody here know of his very early Two Men & a Wardrobe. Mentalist stuff from the late part of the fifties. Even at this early stage, he had established very particular themes and a truly recognisable style.

I dig Roman, I mean making beautiful movies, having Sharon Tate as your main squeeze and spending the first half of your life in hipsters and a page boy haircut warrants certain respect, does it not?

Boy, has he lived it!

Actually, reading this, I must mention Fearless Vampire Killers for being possibly the only movie to emulate some of the classic Universal and Hammer productions and get it right......and very, very, very funny. Camp just doesnt come close. Expert film making.

[BoneyVotel]

Im down. 'bout 8pm.

[DOKO*ENO]

ahhh... la-soul-fiend
i should have trusted my instincts when i saw the metronomie avatar.
polanski is indeed the don.
ive been collecting CUL-DE-SAC paraphanalia for about 6 or 7 years now, ive got posters for nearly all the territories (i also collect 'julliette of the spirits' (Fellini) stuff)
we are doing a CUL-DE-SAC exhibition in the cinema (BMUSIC) (itll be up for 2 months).
i'm sure you shared my heart ache when that prick at harkitt did that criminal bootleg of the ost (12"" ? a 7'' wouldnt have been too difficult) and totally screwed up the lenica artwork xerox style.... twat.

as for two men in the wardrobe - genius. the fat and the lean is also a gem. i set my students (stockport graphics degree) a brief to design and print a poster for it a couple of months back.

personally a big fan of czech new-wave. forman / chytilova

as for the niemen/breakout/sbb/czerwonie gitary... your in the right club...

POKESTER - astigmatic is mandatory.
