The tape has arrived from the US. Did I say that?
Two interviews with Foxx and a copy of the 'metamatic demos'.
Very poor quality, but I'd be interested to know the history of the recording.
The jingles 1 & 2 for instance, are not 1 and 2 as generally known. Instead they are 1 and 4...
On the metamatic demos, we have two extra pieces that don't appear on the widely circulated CD of that name. These are fascinating.
The piece called "Glimmer" is not Glimmer from No-One Driving. It is a piece called "Bed Flight" from the unreleased film soundtrack,and the last track "Red Collar" is in fact Bed Cellar from the same session.
This leaves two short pieces called Walking On Air and Walking On Air 2 which I need to find out a bit more about.
Had a bit of grief from the Forum lately since I chose to offer a copy of the Hollywood boot to Robin Simon via his brother Paul. Ppl seem to think I'm after something or whatever, whcih is such rubbish. I've chatted with both Paul and Robin, and he is excited about the idea of getting a copy not only of this boot but also the other four that I have from the US tour. Paul offered me an interview at the AJ gig coming up, but I almost definitely can't get up to London for that.
I'm hoping he'll talk to me over email, or at leats reply to a letter I will post with the discs.
What has pi**ed me off most is the fact that the disc has actually been 'remastered' and circulated back to others I initially sent copies to, but no-one has thought to pass a copy back to me. SM is putting that right now since I asked him directly
