Took a shower for an hour and ordered 2 reissues CDs from amazon and both 2nd sides of the tallulah reissues do not play in my discman or on my powerbook. Anyone else had trouble? To reinterate another thread why still no australian distributer? |

and to reiterate.....!!!!!!!!because we have a separate record deal in Oz with Festival. So the cd's have to be imported direct to record store. Festival has their own Gobs catalogue here. Btw if the parallel import legislation hadn't been revoked years ago imports would have been illegal, for those who follow this stuff. So be glad they can be imported |

My Tallulah CDs play fine Michael... but I have noticed that for the past few years "new" CDs are increasingly unreliable in my several CD players... Hi Lindy, in 1989 you told me Tallulah was your favourite GBs album - first with Amanda and self-produced and full of variety and stuff. I said it was my least favourite. But now it is the first of the re-issues I have gone for. You were right. All the things I didn't like about it 15 years ago are the the things I love about it now. Music's funny like that. I am particularly thrilled to have that excellent BBC radio session version of The House Jack Kerouac Built on it with that fantastic swooping violin line that isn't on the album version. |

I've far too much time on my hands and just compiled a best-of for my ipod. I ended up with 7 tracks from 'Tallulah'...more than from any other album so I'm with you Ian/Lindy. Fantastic stuff. Have we discussed itunes/ipod here at all? I've gone back over my music collection and it's like hearing a lot of stuff for the first time. Just as i was beginning to get jaded too... |

I've noticed that these copyright protected CDs often do not play in car CD players for example. I understand the impulse behind doing this, but if it means aggravating the honest punter it seems a bit like cutting off your nose to spite your face. Out of interest, I once tried to download a copyright protected CD (which I'd bought) onto my computer and had no problems. Don't get it. |
