(yes I had to check) It's got both versions of Drug Fits The Face, Party Time, and Barracuda on it. DFTF is a very hypnotic song if you let it into your brain. There was a UK 12" on C.T. records that I've been after for a long time with an exclusive Moby song on it called Mad Love, which as I understand is built on a Chaka Khan sample. Moby also did Barracuda mixes of Jam & Spoon's Stella, And Recoil's Faith Healer. His Barracuda sound is generally light and groovy, and I've heard it called italo-disco but I'm terrible with subgenres so I can't attest to that. We're all normal people! Even those of you with bathtubs full of lime jello. I haven't heard Play, either, and I'll be waiting until June 1st to hear it like most of you in the US. That's going to be a busy month here on this list, I'll bet! The CDs for the trivia contest winners will be going out on Monday. Thanks again to everybody who participated! - -Steve _______________________________________________________________ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web.

First one question: is Lost Again a track written by Moby. If yes, why isn't it on the song index ? But the main subject of my mail is this. I just bought a strange Cd of Moby. It has the cover and the tracks of The Story so Far BUT it has the back cover and the list on the Cd of Moby. How can I change this Cd with a true Moby album with its cover, its tracks, its back cover and cd list ? (There is no address or e-mail address on it). Thanks . ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 14 May 1999 08:01:44 PDT From: "Steve Giles" Subject: Re: (mobility) About Moby and the Story so far Mathino wrote: >Hi to all. >First one question: is Lost Again a track written by Moby.

That's an interesting thing. I assume you bought it used, because Instinct (US) makes "Moby" and Equator (UK/EU) makes "The Story So Far". Somebody owned both and sold the Story So Far in a Moby case. It's practically impossible for a you to get a new copy of Moby w/ SSF in it. >How can I change this Cd with a true Moby album with its cover, its tracks, >its back cover and cd list ? (There is no address or e-mail address on it). I doubt that you can. I don't know of any record company that sells liner notes alone. I would recommend returning it to the seller and buying a new "Moby" somewhere else. Good luck! I don't know any French, but maybe I can point you towards some good pictures for you to post on your French Moby site. Write me privately and I'll try to help you out. ttfn, Steve _______________________________________________________________ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web.

Anyway, Andrew, yea I am a "gaijin." I am here for almost a year, and will move back to America in time to go to college in Septemeber. I live in Tokyo, not Miyagi prefecture, but sort of a joke, my middle name is "Mr. Miyagi" from Karate Kid. Are yout the one who was going to Japan to be an English teacher? I know someone here or on the Orbital list was doing that with their Japanese girlfriend (I think). Anyway, dude, if you went to a ton of record shops in Tokyo and didn't find any gems, I would think you're blind. For real, one of my reasons for loving it here so much is the awesome stuff I can find. Techno is much bigger here than it is in America, at least in the North East. DC to Boston. The Underworld CD came out on March 1st and it is still in the Top 10 here. Even the new Orbital was 34 or something this week and has been out for a month already. God, even Atari Teenage Riot is 20something. You should come back and I will give you some stores. And as far as the Cardigans go, they played here the other month and got so pissed off at the Japanese crowd they didn't even finish their set and walked away and I have a feeling they won't be coming back. Ever. Anyway, I did say something Moby related besides all the awesome Moby stuff I bought in Japan. But i forgot what I was going to say. Oh well. It's Saturday. Later.

It wasn't used at all. It was in the plastic on said Cool price (I understand why ?) Lost Again if the one is really the one done by Moby is a great slow paced track with three nice notes of piano and the story is about a man that goes (Please don't ask any questions, you know i can't stay.

I think it's way better than the "Rare" version. Great opening on it. Party Time kicks butt on "Story So Far" as well. That's a great CD that I was actually surprised at how good it was (for Moby'as early stuff). I would highly recommend it to anyone who hasn't gotten it yet. ______________________________ Reply Separator _________________________________ Christian, Moby released a Barracuda 12" on Instinct in May 1991.

Matthino, I had a thought. The cover for Story So Far and Moby are the same picture. Does it actually say "Story So Far" on the front, or are you just seeing the Moby head and thinking of Story So Far? Also, does the back insert list Instinct, as the Moby liner notes would? How about inside the front sleeve? Does that say Equator? (like Story So Far would) Both CDs have simalar track listings, so maybe you're just confused because they look the same. (correct me if I'm wrong) I still haven't found what I'm looking for, which are new interviews and pictures for Play. I know they'll be showing up a lot in June, but I figured more would be out in advance. Has anybody read or seen anything interesting in your local 'zines? Here's a couple questions I didn't use in the trivia contest. I figured I would post them for fun. Q: Orbital interviewed Moby for Streetsound. Who did Moby interview? Q: What was Moby's father's occupation? Q: Name two bands Moby played with while they were touring. I saw an old Rolling Stone yesterday with Howard Stern on the cover. (march 97) In the random notes there was a picture of Moby & David Bowie at the Animal Rights concert / release party. David Bowie was quoted as saying (in reference to Moby's switch to rock) that it was 'a very very daring adventurous thing for Moby to do' or something very close to that. Moby also said (on stage, I think) that "Soft" is a song about anal sex. O-tay. - -Steve _______________________________________________________________ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web.
