Subject: Re: The THE ???
Correct me if I'm wrong, puleeze. The The is the brainchild of Matt Johnson, who has previously recorded under his moniker. Very angsty stuff, with its share of hooks and wonderfulness. Don't get me wrong, I most certainly like it. A by no means complete discography: o Matt Johnson - Burning Blue Soul (1981) o The The - Uncertain Smile EP (1984) o The The - Soul Mining (1984) I have the latter two efforts, and they are most certainly worth the price of admission. I'd supply more information, but my record collection is (sigh) boxed since we're in the throes of moving (Lord, it's been two months now), and I'd have to raid the boxes - which I've been doing regularly, but that's another story. On another subject, I'm totally taken with Marti Jones' "uNsOpHiStIcAtEd TiMe". Beautiful album, with much promise for the future. Anyone out there familiar with her work other than this and the Color Me Gone EP? I'd sure like to snarf some more of that beautiful voice!
