O.K., so I screwed up on the post scripts, but that was the least of my mistakes. In that last post I forgot to mention that Sinead O'Conner and Midnight Oil had new albums out. I believe that Sinead's is called "I Don't Want What I Don't Have" or something like that. As for Midnight Oil's new album, I can't remember the name right now, maybe I'll stick it in a post script :-). I was wondering if any of you KT fans happened to have already purchased either, or both, of these albums so you could run by a preliminary review. Hopefully, I'll be able to purchase at least Sinead's within the next couple weeks and give it a rundown (assuming I get over my current cash-flow problem, or should I say cash-out-flow). Anyways, I feel Sinead O'Conner has a voice that is near the degree of Kate's, but that is my own opinion. Midnigth Oil is another good band, with a lot of socially conscious lyrics. Azhran, Lord of Darkness P.S. Just so you Tanith Lee fans don't have to write, I know Azhran is actually the Lord of Night, but lets face it, Lord of Darkness sounds a hell of a lot better. P.P.S. I just had to try it. :-) ******************************************************* "As she came through she hit us all with that smile, like the Mona Lisa with a machine gun, turning slowly." - Roger Zelazny, Amber series *******************************************************

Has anybody _found_ the new Sinead album yet? Last Sunday, on 120 Minutes, MTV managed to do something right--the followed TSW with Sinead's "new" single, "Nothing Compares 2 U" which was extraordinary (song _and_ video). The new song is mostly strings, but nothing like "Troy".... Anyway, I was fairly certain that they said the albu would be out on the 20th. I've been looking for it since Tuesday, and have yet to find it anywhere. AND I WANT IT!! <grin> Was "20th" perhaps a UK release date? >As for Midnight Oil's new album... The new album is called _Blue Sky Mining_, first single being the sort-of title track "Blue Sky Mine." It's pretty good, though perhaps more melodic than previous stuff (the song, that is). An aussie friend of mine bemoans the fact that Peter Garret (sp?) is trying to sing now. In any event, the album is s'posed to be released on the 27th in the USA (I think it came out this past week elsewhere). On a completely unrelated note...I finally got hold of the new Fish (ex of Marillion) album on loan from a friend, and was very pleasantly surprised to find that Fish's new drummer is Mark Brzezicki of Big Country. Even more surprising was the listing of pipes and whistles played by.... yup--Davey Spillane. He appears on several tracks, perhaps most notably, "The Company" Jeff

As for > Midnight Oil's new album, I can't remember the name right now, maybe It's called "Blue Sky Mine", as opposed to their new single, "Blue Sky Mining". Haven't heard the album, but the single is typical Midnight Oil. It sounds like their in a rut. Bruce Hansen
