Really-From: hsu%uicsrd.CSRD.UIUC.EDU@a.cs.uiuc.edu (William Tsun-Yuk Hsu) I freaked out when I saw all those articles with "British Industry Pornographic" awards, because just the night before I did this "mystery set", which no one knew the theme of. (It's not about British industrial pornographic music, in case you were wondering. The connection is very unambiguous tho. Brad Goins, John Hogge and Katherine Nichols also contributed to the set.) Anti-Scrunti Faction Slave to my estrogen (7") Leather Nun Prime mover (7") Amor Fati No self (Rock 'n' roll 7") Death survives Syd Barrett Terrapin (The Madcap Laughs lp) Jimi Hendrix House of the rising sun (In the beginning lp) PGR Asleep in the shadow of the lion's cage (The Flickering of Sowing Time lp) Sonic Youth Halloween (12") Kannibal Komix Little queen (lp) Sun City Girls Damcar (Grotto of Miracles lp) David Bowie Jean Genie (Aladdin Sane lp) Sleep Chamber Subterranean subhuman (Submit to Desire lp) Bad Martyrs Excerpt from side 1 (Pornographic Nightmare lp) Kevin Dunn Nadine (7") Live Skull Fort Belvedere (Cloud Nine lp) Merzbow Orient oxidation (excerpt from Ushi-Tra cassette) So what is the connection between the songs? I'll post the solution in a week if no one has guessed correctly by then. I repeat, the connection is very unambiguous. How about it, you true eclectics out there (Greg Earle? Grady Toss? Doug?)?

Really-From: rutgers!uwvax!astroatc!gtaylor (Ou sont les neiges d'antan?) It would appear that the aforementioned mystery set is chiefly marked in every case (however sliced, diced, chopped and channeled) by the presence of the kind of grunting and groaning that we commonly associate with acts of {proc,rec}reation. The tricky flatlander left out the last (or next to last) Gennie P. single and Donna Summer. Didn't bronski bleat cover "Love to Love You, Baby?" Did *they* whine and carry on? Of course, this is all just mere speculation.... -- a Torn grAy alleGory/arGoT or Any allergy/or gAyly Garner a loT/lArry ran aT Geology/GrAnary reaTty logo/no lATeral Gray gyro/no loyAl Gray garTer/a GrAyer Tonal glory/Gregory Alan Taylor/Astronautics Technology Center, Madison WI {....uwvax/ nicmad}!astroatc!gtaylor
