From: ethan.miki@netchannel.net Subject: (hats) Old News (FoEIII) Date: 01 May 1998 08:08:40 -0700 (PDT) Howdy folks: I was a subscriber to this list a year or two ago. I was able to follow the progress of Mr. __oglio's fine Collection album as it made its way from Carl's mind through the lawyers into the local record store. When I left the list (my univ. finally realized I had graduated and so they yanked away my acct.) I think the European FoE/RoY CD had just been released. I'm wondering if the list has found a nice, reliable source to provide this CD for us North Americans. I'd appreciate any info. Please respond directly if you would like to help.

They had a number one hit in Spain in the early 1980s called "Love Tumbles Down". Apparently they released three singles in Spain on vinyl for EMI. If anyone who lives in Spain is out there and wouldn't mind throwing some help my way please drop me a note.

I am kind of disappointed with Ivan's decision not to do the show. I understand the reasons why he may not have been interested, but I think his and his management's handling of the situation could have been more direct and personal to the fans, written in a list posting or something. It was, however, a tactful let-down: their telling us that he would do the show if he could do it as a solo artist with solo material. But he and his management knew full well that we wanted to see a Men Without Hats show. I have not heard anything from Francis so I will assume the entire plan has been scrapped. Maybe some other year, when Ivan realizes the true worth of his life-long fans.

In my opinion, Ivan's management did not email the list because Francis was our spokesperson. He went to the management representing us and then he'd tell us what management said. Also, I agree with Claude when he says he doesn't see anything wrong with Ivan moving forward. In the beginning we decided that if Ivan wants to do the show it would be cool. So he didn't. A while back, Tom said perhaps it is because of the time to get the band together and rehearse. Maybe when Men Without Hats records their new album, this idea might happen. But I wouldn't expect a totally private show. I'm very curious to know what is Francis' idea! :) By the way, I'm not sure if I already said this, I was making a tape for the car one day and was going through my CDs choosing which to record. I came across the "Freeways" boot and thought aboutt he discussion about listening to "Freeways" in the car while driving on...well, a freeway. IT'S TRUE!!!!! It wasn't a night, but on the highway the song is perfect! Then I happened to be listening to it on the road (not the highway) and it wasn't the same. It's perfect for the highway. It's the words and the music. Also, I was on my way to an interview and popped in my PGTW tape (I have the feeling I mentioend this already). WHAT A REFRESHING ALBUM!!!!! I don't know why, but it was so rejuvenating. I guess I was depressed for a while about job search (still looking!) and the music was upbeat. Or perhaps you listen to the lyrics about the environment and put things in perspective. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Clip n' save! =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Spasticks!

I was sure somebody would beat me to it (I taped it and watched it 2 hours later). So a few words about Ivan's appearance on MusiquePlus. First, the expected 1 hour interview turned out to be a very short half hour deal :-( Since MusiquePlus are doing an 80's weekend, Ivan was invited as a member of MWH, not as a solo act (he didn't say a word about The Spell). Highlights of the show include THE explication of Safety Dance (more on that later) and a performance of Safety Dance (this is not a typo). He was singing over a tape (the same one used during the Spell "tour" if my memory is correct). He was accompanied by one dancer (Sahara, Laura is happy ;o). Ivan's singing was VERY GOOD. Nothing like what he did on the Erica Hem's show. The mixing was average (the music in the background), but Ivan was so good that I didn't mind. When asked if MWH was dead, Ivan's answer was: "I wouldn't say that". He then talked about future projects. Stephan, who owns a recording studio north of Quebec, is working on a country project with singer-songwriter Mack MacKenzie (of Three O'Clock Train fame, another Montreal 80's band). Colin will release "Centrifugal Force" this summer on Uforia. I don't know if this will be a reedition of "Excerpts From Matter (VOL III)" (anybody knows something about volume I and II?) or something new. In either cases I would strongly recommend it. Centrifugal Force is the definite proof that talent runs in the Doroschuk family. Ivan then mentioned 3 other projects for Uforia: a thing called Naked Yoga (trance-techno), another rock-techno project (no name) and a new band Ivan is putting toghether (of the bass/drum/guitar varieties, Sideways take 2?) They also talked about the fact that MWH always came up with something new, different from their previous work. Ivan confirmed that he was interested in exploring the new possibilities of music. When asked for his sources of inspiration he mentioned Supertramp, Genesis, then Roxy Music... progressive rock. He also said that in their very first incarnation (the pre-Arrobas era) their main influences were the Beatles and the Sex Pistol. They also played the Pop Goes The World clip. There you have it. I have taped the show and will send it to Tom (Tom where are you?).

But now I'm hoping that they'll put out more '80s music. I've been after them for over a year to put out Ebn-Ozn's "Feeling Cavalier" on CD. They wrote me back yesterday to say that they couldn't do it unless they could guarantee that 25000 copies would be sold. So I was wondering: how would I go about conducting a survey or petition or signature list over the Net for '80s music lovers? I don't want to resort to spam or anything like that, but I'd like to find the 25000 fans I know must be out there and communicate this to Oglio. Any help that anyone can give me would be appreciated.

He contacted the Sparks mailing list with an oh so subtle self promotion. I told him that I was a bit disappointed that he hasn't been doing much 80' re-issueing lately. He admits that it has been awhile but guarentees some cool releases this year. He gave no indication what they may be. I've been at him to re-issue Haysi Fantayzee and Classix Nouveaux since 92 but nothing so don't hold your breath. I can't support you for the Ebn Ozn re-issue as I can't stand them. Sorry.

If people would speak up about what albums they would like to see re-issued maybe we would get more. I've been sending letters out for years. Though most of what I've wanted has yet to be re-issued I may have made a difference here or there. The only suggestion of mine that appeared on Oglio was the 2 on 1. I doubt that I had anything to do with it actually being re-issued but who knows. It's always a good idea to have 2 or more copies of a favorite LP that doesn't exist on CD. I have 2 copies of the Haysi Fantayzee LP. It offers a little security. Until everything is avalable I'll continue paying outragous prices for second hand vinyl or long out of print CD's. Gee wilikers, I just had to pay $55 for a long deleted Toyah CD!!

They only licensee the stuff from the major labels. The majors, in an act of cutting off their nose to spite their face, demand that these bands like Ebn-Ozn or Classic Nevoux- who didn't even sell 25K copies when they CAME OUT- sell 20K or 30K upon re-issue, They demand from labels like Oglio a guarantee that they will sell 20 or 30K, meaning that if Oglio doesn't, they loose money. A company like Oglio can make money off of a lot fewer sales, but the people who hold the rights to the music don't want to hear about it. I know of a story at ANOTHER label that got the rights to a solo album from the '80s to a well known '60s and '70s member of a huge band. They got the rights with a guarantee they would sell 20K copies for RCA, but when RCA realized how quickly the little label said yes, they upped it ot 30K and the little label backed out because they knew they couldn't sell that many. TO this day those solo albums are not on CD!

I thought I should reply to this directly but decided there might be some others on this list also interested in Classix Nouveau. I had been a fan when they were together and had also been pestering record companies to release something by them. EMI Gold (UK) recently (1997) came out with The Very Best of Classix Nouveau, and here's the catalog number in case you need to order it: CD GOLD 1104 (7-24385-99782-2). 16 tracks including new (?!) versions of the Robots Dance and Guilty. Haysi Fantayzee has one track on the cd 'Pop and Wave - the Never Ending 80's Vol 5', a two cd compilation from Germany (I got my copy at Virgin). It is the only thing I have ever seen on cd by them; "John Wayne os Big Leggy" which I suppose (other than Shiny Shiny) that's the best we can expect. the label is Sony and the # is 478012-2 Bye for now.

Rod stated that Haysi Fantayzee was only available on one particular German sampler. I have some additional information: "John Wayne Is..." is also featured on another German compilation CD called "Audio 80's" (BMG records 261 299) together with some nice stuff by Haircut 100 and an early version of Huang Chung's (!) "Dance Hall Days". But there are other Various Artists-CDs that feature Haysi Fantayzee's "Shiny Shiny". These are: a) Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Hits of the 80's Volume 11 (1995 US; Rhino Records R2 71974) b) Living in Oblivion: The 80's Greatest Hits Volume 1 (1993 US; EMI E2 81417) For those of you who are searching for 12" versions of old goodies there is a number of (sometimes hard-to-find) CDs of interest like the French "Culture Dance" series on Versailles Records (Sony) or the Canadian "Hardest Hits" and "Classic Alternatives" series on SPG (which has gone bankrupt, unfortunately, but I guess, most of the titles might still be found). There is a fantastic resource for 80's sampler contributions. You can search for titles and artists. The page is maintained by a Swedish guy and even has running times for most of the songs. Here is the URL: http://www.thegrid.net/mpaulsen/newwave.html If I can be of help for someone who is searching for something in particular (especially German CDs), don't hesitate to send me a mail. I'm also looking for some Various Artists CDs: a) "Steve Masters Presents: A Trip Back to the 80's" (199? US; UBL Recordings A-26491) b) "Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Dance Hits of the 80's" (1997 US; Rhino Records R2 72586) c) "80's Dance Party Volume 2" (1994 CA; SPG Music SPG 1982) I'm looking for these CDs because they feature a song called "the Dominatrix Sleeps Tonight" by Dominatrix.

In fact all, but one, of their albums are available on import CD. The group that did She Went Pop was called Iam Siam. I had the LP, I didn't like it. The group that did We are what we are is called The Other Ones as opposed to The Young Ones. Freur and Wire Train CD's are available from good old Oglio. I saw Lene Lovich live in 90. It is still the best concert that I have ever been to. You mention that you have video on some early 80's artists. I am always looking for early 80's videos for my collection.

There's only so much that can be said about MWH and I'm sure when someone has something to say about them it will be said as opposed to sticking to a non related subject.

Not only that, if you click on the big pics on the left (as opposed to the thumbnails on the right) you will be advanced to the next pic in the series just as before, however, when you get to the last pic, it links to my own personal set of MWH concert pix. You can then cycle through my 16 pics - the last of which then cycles back to yours! It's a continuous loop.

Thanks for the kind words about Oglio. :-) Oglio started in 1992 with a single mission to reissue the hard to find 80s music I enjoyed hearing on KROQ here in Los Angeles. We started with compilations and, as the compilation market exploded in 1994, we later added single artist reissue collections. We now release comedy, novelty and new music as well. I would personally love to release Ebn-Ozn, Haysi Fantayzee, Classix Nouveaux and a long list of others but unfortunately economics prevents me from doing that. I learned valuable lessons with releases like Red Rockers and Wire Train. The major labels are big machines and it takes alot of money to get them to even generate the paperwork for a license. The labels generally ask for 25,000 unit guarantees that mean a small label risks $100,000 - $125,000 to put a record out. I risked that to put out the Men Without Hats Collection and most of the other Oglio licensed records. Oglio and the label (MCA) were not able to come to terms for a MWH 2 for 1 in the USA. Sorry to Michelle and the other list members that don't care about non-Hats stuff. I thought most of you would enjoy my answer.

Our server went down yet again, and this is the first access I've had to email since the 22nd (last message recieved). If anyone tried to email me about anything since last Friday, I didn't get it, and it is probably lost in the ether. Sorry to anyone who tried to get in touch with me, and MAJOR apologies to Lazlo, who probably got a snootful of "undeliverable" messages. I did send a bunch of T-shirts out yesterday, so those of you who have provided me with both a check and a mailing address, keep your eye on your mailbox! Francis and Col, I still need your mailing addresses!

It's still in its infancy at this point and currently clocks in at only one-and-one-half minutes - one full minute shorter than the finished original. It's a lot of work building a song the way I do, but I can already tell the results will be well worth the effort when it's complete. What exactly is the deadline for submissions on this CD adventure? Who else is making / recording something for it? What songs will be on it besides mine?

What / where / when / how / why? count me in for a track - which are still available, what format do you want it in, how long (no 12" dance remixes etc)... ooooo so many questions and so little beer left. at least i can put my drum machine collection to some use! sorry for the late arrival on this subject, but i must have blinked.
