is the 1.50 for EACH tape or for the entire order...
Is her new CD Warpaint
going to be the same as one of the tapes?
It is $1.50 for the whole thing, though I was informed that it is now $2.00
(inflation, recession, etc.). Warpaint, to the best of my knowledge,
will not, I repeat *WILL NOT* overlap with any of the material in the
1st four releases. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty dogarn sure.
So yes, you have to get the cassettes if you want the early stuff.
I have no idea how Warpaint will be distributed until she gets a major
label... Vickie wasn't too sure either. But I'm sure we'll find out
soon enough.

I, too, sent $1.50 for postage, but the total postage on my 4-tape package was (I believe) $2.40. If I have to order _Warpaint_ (instead of popping into my local indie-carrying CD shop (please, please please let Happy get into *stores*!)), I'll probably include an extra buck... >I have no idea how Warpaint will be distributed until she gets a major >label...

On a related topic (namely the idea of Happy being picked up by a major label and her early stuff being re-released). It was said that Happy won't re-record her early stuff (no big deal) but that the first four albums would never be released on CD because of the relatively abysmal quality. Haven't I heard from a billion or so sources that the second Michelle Shocked album (_Texas Campfire Tapes_ or something like that) was actually a bunch of early material recorded on a *walkman*? What's the quality like on that? I can't imagine stuff recorded on a walkman being better than Happy's original stuff! Still hoping, Jeff -- |Jeffrey C.

Rose Records in Champaign is getting two of Happy's Warpaint CDs in. I've
reserved one of them, but there's one untaken. They apparently were never sent
any of Happy's stuff, so they had to get another Rose to send it here. Sooo,
David, Tara, or any other local Happy hopefuls will probably want to check
Rose next Monday or Tuesday, that's when the CDs come in. The store 'manager'
mentioned getting the tapes, so I'll twist his arm after I listen to the CD.
I'll buy the CD on everyone's rave (more than especially Vickie's)
reviews, but not the whole kit'n'kaboodle all at once. Ride and Throwing
Muses have me pretty broke, recently!
Have a nice day&week. Hopefully the heat wave is over for good!
Ken.

I don't know if this is stating the obvious, but several people have suggested
that people use some kind of "kill" feature to kill all messages that say
"happy" in em. I don't know how this works, but might it be better to have em
kill all messages that say "Rhodes" in em and then ask people to use her last
name. Of course, I don't really understand how this works.
