Subject: Desperately Seeking Music
Hello, i have a bunch of questions i hope someone here can help me with, i'm presently living in an area with no alternative music sources and it's driving me up the wall! (1) has anyone ever heard of a group called either _Hanover Fist_ or _Hand over Fist_? I heard a great song by them about two months ago on CFNY in Toronto called _This is the American Dream_. Unfortunately, i'm now living in the depths of Indiana and no one here has a clue. The airwaves here are filled with the most banal drivel i've ever heard ("mellow rock" about sums it up). If you know the correct band name or where i can get the song (on CD if possible) i'd be eternally grateful! (2) there was a discussion on love-hounds a long while back about the Cocteau Twins, which album do you suggest i start with (on CD if possible)? (3) in '82 Rhoda with _The Special A.K.A._ did _The Boiler_ as an import single. Has she since produced an album (again on CD if possible). Also, i have heard that there is another English female singer who does similar stuff, help anyone? (4) have _The Smiths_ or _The Dead Kennedys_ put any of their albums on CD? Finally: does anyone know if the _Angelic Upstarts_ have any of their material on CD? I'm particularly interested in the song _The Soldier_. Any help appreciated! greg. ------ Gregory J. E.
