They've completed a total of 7 new tracks. Could this mean an album's on the way this fall? -john -------------------------- Date: Thu, 11 Jul 1996 00:41:07 -0500 (CDT) From: The Swede Subject: Re: tim and sarah duet I think, though, "...Christmas Day " was added to the US version of Tiger Bay, which took a while to come out over here. IT's a great "pop" track, ...it's not on the UK import, though. In case no one else has posted this-- I just read that the Charlatans are now recording a new single to be co-produced by one of the Chemical Brothers. -john --------------------------- Date: Thu, 11 Jul 96 08:57:14 PDT From: "CHRIS WALTON, SHIFT 7 DIFFUSION, PG:932-3802" Subject: RE: The Third World ANDER, I hear you man.

And on that topic, is that little rascal Squire really out of the band for good or is he just trying to make us sweat again. My misinformation will probably be my demise... Just a'wonderin', dan. p.s. whomever said that "Over Rising" was a must...

Although the records are a bit pricey. As soon as I head back to uni. it's over. There are not a lot of good record stores where I live, If they recieve an NME with a tape they remove it same goes fer all other mags. it's sad really. Plus Charlies records are few and far between, I have everything that they have and nothing new comes in (old stuff I mean) So I'm stuck like yer are, ken? Lately, you are talking 'bout some new NME compilation with the Charlies on it. OK, so I went to this foreign press library and bought the latest NME The NME Comp I was talking about yer can find at a good record store it's a cd. Still haven't got it yet though. (3000 yen is a bit much I ( I think it was something like that-$30.00) By the way, The Only One I Know deserves the right to be on each and every groovy music compilation That is true, but....*but* people think that's all the charlies are good fer a one hit wonder. We all know that's not true, but it would be nice for people to move on and realize there's more to the Charlies than The only one I know. Whether tha's a good thin or a bad thing I don't really ken. I know it's selfish but I hope the Charlies never get as big as they could. I like it better with a small group of devoted fans rather than a large group composed of the devoted fans plu the "we heard it on the radio-an this week it's cool so we like 'em" group. Kinda like the group tha follows the 'sis now.

I don't believe anyone is trying to come up with any kind of a confrontation here. The thing is, I expressed my love for the Roses and the Charlies and other people did the same thing. Why should we not mention other bands in the mailing list. Ok, it is a Charlies' list but that does not mean the rest of the World does not exist. One more thing, please tell me what NME issue included the last compilation with the Charlies in it. Cheers.

I was really thrilled to read the news about the new Charlatans single comming up propably in August, and the new live date at Knebworth. Finally things are starting to happening again around the Charlatans. I'm so exited I can't wait!!! Meanwhile we can enjoy the latest single from Kula Shaker, Tattva (since we're talking about other great bands like the roses). And put on Patrol by The Charlatans on your record player with your headphones on. It's amazing!!! live it like you love it! I love it! cheers and goodnight Eirik ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 13 Jul 1996 02:37:18 +0200 (MET DST) From: Eirik Gudmundsen Subject: Unrelated news! Hi! There are assumingly bands with more bad luck than the charlatans. Smashing Pumkins' tour keyboard player just died from an overdose. The drummer in the band suplied him the drugs and has been arrested for posession of drugs. I guess Billy's having a hard time now!

Cresser (or anyone who happens to know): I heard the Bluetones song "are you blue or are you blind?" and I thought it was pretty slick. Do you happen to know if the album was/will be released in America? I wanted to get the disc but not pay $20 for the import. And as far as discussing other bands on this list is concerned, I was under the impression that these lists were set up so that people with similar musical interests could discuss bands, especially since many before me have mentioned that the Charlatans aren't exactly doing a whole hell of a lot right now... -dan -------------------------------- Date: Sun, 14 Jul 1996 16:24:20 -0400 (EDT) From: DANIEL MCNELIS Subject: Re: Charlies innit? kawasaki? congo bongo? walla walla? domowatgato mister roboto!

The article is "Didn't we used to be famous?" It starts out: You did. Really. For you were the lost commandos of the era best described as 'BBP'-before Britpop. While the grunge monster ate our young and techno threatened the very life of rock itself, you were putting up a sterling defense, based on 'shoegazing', 'post-baggy' and -lawks! -something called 'fraggle'. Those vital questions can now be answered: Where are you now? What the blazes were you wearing? And what, pray tell, is the secret of survival? story by: Andrew Male The Charlatans (has a "survivors" mark on it) Tim Burgess (vocals) Large-lipped baggy demigods who first hit the top ten with 'The Only One I know' in 1990. Saw a low point with '92's 'Between 10th and 11th' album. But came from the wilderness with last year's chart-topping album, 'The Charlatans'. Huzzah! Was there a point where you thought of splitting up? "It was when Rob Collins went to Jail. If he had gone down for 4 years there's no way we would have carried on without him." Lowpoint? "Other than Rob it would have to be the second LP only goin in at 21. It felt like we'd failed" Were you ever baggy? "By 1992 we wanted to lose all that. 'Pauls Boutique' by the Beasties was where our heads were at. After that Manchester thing, we didn't feel that we fitted in anywhere. I still don't know where we fit in. Round then we pretty much hung out with ourselves, we weren't reall with that London scene- we didn't want to be involved in getting pissed with Lush. Ah, that sounds terrible doesn't it? It's not meant personally." Where did it go right? "'Can't Get Out Of Bed' got us taken for real. At the time, Me and Mark (Collins) were living in Salford, banging down loads of Es. Why did you survive? "The will to convince people. There's no use in aiming low. We want to go down as successors to The Who........I've had a couple of Gin and Tonics." Who should have made it but didn't? "I guess Ride had a bit of potential at the start. Isuppose we could have gone in similar direction if one of us had gone on a massive mod trip." What would you be doing if you hadn't made it? "working in a chippy. I still fancy that. I'd like not having to sing for a bit- think all day and dream about buying me fave records and books. I wouldn't mind that." There yer have it folks. This month's select.

Next lil' bit has nothing to do with Tim&co. but as the list is finally bubbling with conversation...press [del] now to avoid disappointment. What a lovely little suprise of a weekend. Shed7 decided in the last minute to open for Catherine Wheel. Felt seeing one 20min rendition of "Black Metallic" was enough so I didn't get tix. But booted down to the gig when I found out about Shed. Scalpers were robbing Shed fans for $70+ `cause the show sold out ages ago. If I hadn't come with good friends would have been very tempted to scalp my +4 on the list for them. Excellent show. Crowd singing in complete unison to "Long Time Dead". Rick got Alan to do the backing vox for "Jumping Jack Flash". That boy has a hard enough time keeping the beat and bobbing his smiley head. Sorely missed: Ocean Pie and Bully Boy. But brilliant ntl. Couldn't even stay for CW. Too anti-climatic. Thanks for tuning in. So unrelated to this list...oh wait. um...the Charlies came on right after Shed7 at last year's T.

I did think of telling you about that, but yes, the sampled bit on pt109 is taken from that film Angel Heart. I didn't know about it when I first saw the film, so I was suprised myself when DeNiro came with that line. Pretty cool. The Farm did something simular to that on the same time. On their song Hearts and Minds from Spartacus they're using samples from another DeNiro film (a mob film from when they brought illegal liquor to America, Can't remember the name now though)_. As for Japanese, there are a few of us speaking it on the list. I do. I understand it can be bothering for some, so I can cut it out if you like. It's a nice language though.... And Hiroko, cheers for shearing the sad feelings about S Pumkins with me.. bye ---------------------------- Date: Tue, 16 Jul 1996 11:31:08 -0400 From: Sproston Green Subject: Re: Would you like an egg?

I saw this film a while back. I happened to flip past it when the line "...liquor and prostitution and dope..." was spoken. Of course I stopped. The film was called something like 'an american story' or the like. Can't quite remember. Good album that Sparticus.

Lisa went outside and made another call. The four of us sat huddled together, sweating and shaking, trying to keep warm even though the Minnesota humidity soaked through our flannel shirts and blood & bleach stained blankets. Our porch on the corner house at 35th and Emerson was home for the day. Late afternoon. It was my turn to go meet Marco at the McDonalds in Uptown. "Jeff, get down there now. Take my bike. Here's $50.00, take it." Lisa had made it with some banker on his lunch hour down off of Nicollet Mall. "His Lexus was nice." She seemed impressed by the fact that some fifty year old married loser with five kids and a wife and a home in Linden Hills fucked her 85 pounds nearly every week. "And he gave me a ride home too. Next week we're going to do it next to Lake of the Isles next to this mansion with greek statues and cherubs. He's so goddamned romantic, this Lester." "I'll be back soon." I said to her as I jumped on her Huffy. Chaining the bike up at Lunds off of Humboldt and lake Street, I followed a nice tight ass in a pair of skin tight shorts into the produce department. Nice fucking cantaloupes I thought as I leered at the two dove-like orbs, glistening in sweat on this hot, sticky Sunday in the Twin Cities overpriced chain of groceries. Her dark, coral colored nipples strained rusty silver dollar sized in my direction through the skimpy tank top, whitw ribbed and way too tight. She had no real big tits, but the shape of her ass and that walk. That walk down the pasta aisle made me want to spurt my vermicellis right at her face. Remembering I had to meet Marco at the McUptown I quickly made my way up lagoon past the new discount smokes store at the corner by the Uptown. "Jeff,"I turned my head around and looked behind. It was Angela. She was a real loser of a skanking whore bitch. Got five kids. All with different fathers. She probably named thesorry little babies after the lineup last week at Lyle's Liquor Lounge. "The little girl here with red hair, names Cows. Him, that's T.T., short for Trailer Trash. Saw them last week on Margarita night. Them kids aren't mine, see?" I looked away from her and tried to spot Marco in his blue Volvo station wagon. "Angela, I don't have any time today for your fucking nonsense." "Are you holding?" "No. And if I did it wouldn't go into your worthless body." The 28 bus puked hot exhaust on the pavement by the new library statues. Dog shit, Caribou coffee cups and stained condoms signaled to the world that Minneapolis was now a "grown up city" bustling with culture. The veins in my arms we're ready to burst. I threw up my Macaroni and Cheese breakfast on my Doc Martin's. I felt like a new man. And now for the news--as told to Shaman Bart... First Ave. June 19. Bob (yes, that Bob) was in good, though not rare, form. Trying to parlay his birthday present of a free ticket to the Posies into something that will get him kicked out, or maybe slapped, he proceeds to scoping out the area. It is an all age show, but Bob confines his wandering gaze to the alcohol(ic) section. Possibly because he still is wearing his ring, the bar maid gives him a "What the fuck" look and leaves. He finally settles on two mid twenties chicks who have good seats on the balcony above the stage. (His hands wished they could settle on their two seats in a darker corner of the balcony). The Posies do cuts from the latest release which blend in fairly well with their earlier songs, and suddenly the new stuff sounds pretty fine. Bright pinkish-redhaired Ken Stringfellow spastically jumping around, thrashing at his guitar for all its worth, leading the band through a charged hour and a half set. Little did he know that he still had to meet ... Bob. Somewhere in the middle of the set, I lost Bob, opting instead to go down to the floor, positioning myself by the women of Melrose Place. Booty shaking, tits jigglin underage chicks, with boyfriends giving me mean glances saying "I'm a dumb fuck from Richfield with a great looking girlfriend. I don't know nothing about this band but keep your eyes off her ass or I'll cry!" As I was blissfully enjoying the scene and sounds, thinking about if the Posies would play a Zombies cover, if I could scrounge up bail money if needed, how old was that girl in front of me, Bob had spotted Jonny Disturbed, pressing his way in the thronging clueless masses. Bob sprang to and wound his way in through the crowd, alternately muscling and groping to clear his path, reminiscent of a young Sen. Bob Packwood. Jon was in the midst of connecting with the blonde lead Velocity Girl. Dazzling her with his encyclopedic knowledge of the Seattle music and compliments. Just as he was about to hoist her tight buns onto his shoulders, he hears "Hey Arenson!! What the fuck are you doing? Let's get up front." The trio then presses forth, ending up by Ken Stringfellow's monitor, the seat of all glory. There they found another blonde, who had short jean shorts, a rock groupie hairdo, and had been around the block a few thousand times. Promises of backstage passes, drinks, other consummables, something resembling phone sex, yes Jon and Bob were getting in! Getting into pants or backstage, who knew?? "Hey Ken Stringfellow. Posies bigtime rock star! Sing some Beatles tunes, or that Zombies stuff you cover. Igot it on a CD. Forget this new shit you're trying to do. 'Ontario' what the fuck is that shit or 'Grant Hart?' Trust me I know music. Iwas the best fucking DJ in the Midwest at Grapes. Gary Numan and Techno rules! Stick to classic covers Ken, may i call you Ken?" The Posies singer then finished off the last part of "Surrender" a cover they did for their final number, just like Rick Nielsen and the Illinois boys of noise. A piece of Ken's Telecaster that resembled a tomahawk nearly missed ripping a hole in Bob's neck. His head pushed way too fucking close to the personal space of Mr. Stringfellow. Jon Auer screamed for the last time "You're Daddy's allright1" and broke his Gibson SG over the monitor over next to Evil Bob. "You have no right!" Bob screamed and got ready to cold-cock the air with his quivering fist in the direction of the Seattle popstars. "Fuck off, loser! You're drunk." Ken Stringfellow screamed as he walked down the wooden ramp to the dressing room area by the stage. He flicked a sharp black Fender guitar pick into Bob's eye and put out a freshly lit smoke on the front of Bob's Sheik's Gentleman's Club polo shirt. The Posies fled the stage, glad to be rid of this warped all age pseudo-Saved-by-the-Bell/My So Called Life Generation Yuck crowd. And now back to our regularly scheduled programming... Wiping the vomit from my mouth with my shirt I saw Angela dart back into the Uptown in that horrible black lace grannydress of her's. Ha! The stupid cunt left her pack of Marlboros. They fit nicely into my backpack and one between my parched lips. I lit one and sucked the tobacco into my dead carcass. Just then the blue Volvo station wagon pulled up behind the McDonalds and stopped, idling in the alley. Walking closer to the Volvo I noticed something was wrong. "Marco's in jail. He got arrested last night at the New french. Narcs got all of his Mexican Black Tar, every damn ounce of it all. I've got nothing for you. Sorry. I gotta go. Good luck Jeff." Nice chick, Marco's lady, Kim. Didn't recognize her at first when she looked at me through the window of the Volvo. Six years and about six thousand mainlines can transform a healthy suburban babe into a heifer with a habit, if you get enough free smack to shoot. God love Marco but she gave Kim all she wanted. Seeing the Volvo speed off towards Kenwood I walked across the street and bought two cartons of Camel straights, some Zig zags, some Bic lighters and a bag of Doritos. Fifty bucks is worthless to me if I can't stick it into my neck and meet God, Satan, Jimi, Jim Morrison, Janis, Dizzy, Kurt and jack Kerouac in a hot rush of chemically-enhanced orgasmic mind numbing rushing energy rushing second. I'm totally bummed. Fuck it all. I hate the Minneapolis police. "Jeff. Don't go in there." "Why? I need to crash, please get away from the door." "Stay away!" I pushed her aside and walked into the porch. I dropped the two cigarette cartons and my bag to the floor with a thud. "Jesus, motherfucker....this is..." I threw up as I saw Crank's head bleeding onto the Persian rug. His brains and pieces of his hair in dreds and bone fragments stuck onto the base of the VCR.. Patrick, who we all called Snicker was there too. A shotgun, still red- hot from firing a round smoked in the corner by his knee. Part of his face was gone and i tried to remember whaT HE LOOKED LIKE WITHOUT A PIECE MISSING!!!! fUCKING COPS!
