Subject: KB & PG, and a Cure question
Hi. This is the first time I have sent anything to Love-Hounds, so maybe I should say that I'm a recent convert to Kate Bush, but a bit fanatical (as converts tend to be). My tastes in music run heavily to the Cure, OMD, New Order, Echo & the B-men, and Elvis Costello. I heard the new Peter Gabriel/Kate Bush duet from _SO_ on the radio yesterday afternoon. I was at work, so I didn't listen to closely, but it was pretty. I think it will get lots of play on progressive easy listening stations everywhere. :-) Now, the real reason for my first posting, I finally got the cd of the Cure's _Seventeen Seconds_ yesterday, and noticed two "flaws". I was wondering if all the disks are this way, or if I should take it back for a replacement. The flaws: 1.) 2:22 into "M", the right channel drops out for a split-second. 2.) at the end of "Seventeen Seconds", the song ends apparently in the middle of a note, sort of like a careless person had been taping the song and turned off the recorder before the song was quite over. Otherwise, it sounds great. Are these problems found on other disks, or is it just this particular one? By the way, I happened to notice yesterday at the Harvard Square Newbury comics: the Kate Bush cd's are found directly behind the Jaques Brel cd's. I was amused, in light of recent LH discussions. - Nancy (everson@bbn-spca.arpa) (i don't know uucp)
