wicinski@NRL-CST.ARPA (wicinski) (11/19/86)

First:   Got my copy of the Ed Meese report on pornography finally. 
only cost ten bucks and is choked full of words and phrases for
this dickhead to use in further postings...

Robert Fripp and the League of Crafty Guitarists - Live

picked this up months ago.  A relaxing record, with bob and his students.
Kinda like listening to a practice session with his class.  take it
however you feel.  that's probably all fripp cares about. 
recommended for frippertronics fans only 

Kraftwerk - Electric Cafe 

It's been 8 years since i first heard kraftwerk and they still sound
innovative.  It's really easy to do bad techno-pop (ask 
any english band) and really hard to do good techno-pop.  
They always seem one step ahead in terms of the computer synths and
the like.  though they sound more dancy than before.  still good
wait for the 12"s though.

Poison Idea - King of Punks 

Got this one free so i can't say how much i would like it if i bought it.
side 2 does rip faces apart and does not attempt to put them back together.
I dislike speed metal but I enjoy this record.  also the
swaggart tape loops at the end make it hilarious. tom pig
is ugly as shit though.  but I doubt you all would enjoy.

Birdsongs of the Mesozoic 

Traded hofmann for this one.  good stuff but too short.  should be 
a lp.  beat of the mesozoic is awesome, but the other stuff need more
work.  still, they grunge with the best of them. kinda like mahler
and einsterein nerbautan (sic) mixed together.
