I have an idea
which is good, as that's what I'm supposed to have when I sit down at my
computer
or bad, as I'm supposed to be writing some children's poems for an aliens
anthology
or good, because it provides a welcome diversion
I was only talking to Jill a couple of days ago, as we strolled along the
beach with Judy,
about The Incredible String Band. I don't have U but I do have lots of their
albums. And this is my idea -
You, dear fluxlist people, send me a C60 or C90 tape filled to bursting with
all your favourite obscure, ancient, hard-to-find, poppy, jazzy, arty,
fluxy, electronic tracks. When I have received a few I will re-distribute
them.
Thus - you will send a tape and get one back - although you won't know who
it will be from until it arrives.
1 - Go for interesting listening and variety. Not everyone will be thrilled
to receive, for example,
90 minutes of Lou Reed's mechanical and electronic music. So - lots of
interesting, old tracks.
2 - Enclose some information about the tracks.
3 - Enclose some artwork if you like (optional)
4 - Enclose your name and address.
A trip down memory lane? A wallow in nostalgia? A chance to convince at
least one
other person on the planet that The Lurex Drainpipes were THE definitive
band of 1977?
