I just checked out the recent Paul bio "McCartney", and it said an album he made called "Liverpool Sound Collage" had a picture of a screaming man, a corpse, a cross, and a blonde woman. Here is the picture check it out yourself.  |

Look at the titles!  www.jpgr.co.uk/lsc01.html1 Plastic Beetle - Paul McCartney, The Beatles 08:22 2 Peter Blake 2000 - Super Furry Animals, The Beatles 16:54 3 Real Gone - Dub Made In Manifest In The Vortex Of The Eternal Now Youth 16:37 4 Made Up - Paul McCartney, The Beatles 12:57 5 Free Now JoJo, do you have the audio for this? Description: "Peter Blake (the artist, who designed the Sgt.Pepper cover) currently has an exhibition in the Liverpool Tate (until May 2001) a piece called "Liverpool Collage". Mr.Blake invited Paul to come up with an accompanying sound collage, which when looking at his artwork would also invoke feelings of Liverpool. This release is that sound collage." "Release Date 21st August 2000" www.mmguide.musicmatch.com/album/album.cgi?ALBUMID=630098&AMGLENGTH=full#review"The hype mill, stoked in part by McCartney himself, promoted this CD as nothing less than a posthumous chapter in the Beatles' saga ("a new little piece of Beatles," in Paul's words). Nonsense, for this is really just the latest of McCartney's excursions into electronica, an interest of his that dates back to the Beatles' boundary-shredding experiments with musique concrète and the Moog synthesizer in the 1960s. It is a series of five electronic collages, with occasional eruptions of a new tune called "Free Now" (actually a catchy repetitive riff, no more or less), sounds of the auto tunnel under the Mersey, pieces of strange off-the-cuff interviews conducted by Paul on the Liverpool streets (he asks, disingenuously, "What do you think of the Beatles?"), snippets of a chorale from his Liverpool Oratorio -- and yes, some Beatle talk from the 1965 sessions for "Think for Yourself." All of the tracks are given separately distributed credits to McCartney, the Beatles, the group Super Furry Animals, and Youth -- his collaborator in previous electronica projects -- but in fact, the whole hour-long CD is of a single piece. The most effective segment is the one credited solely to Youth (bearing the unwieldy title "Real Gone Dub Made in Manifest in the Vortex of the Eternal Now"), where the pitchless electronic sounds are at their wildest and the disembodied Beatles voices and ghostly choruses are hauntingly adrift in a high-tech netherworld. As a listening experience, it is at least as casually absorbing as McCartney's two Fireman albums -- and it grows on you, provided that you drop any expectations of this being a long-lost Beatles album. ~ Richard Ginell, All Music Guide". The "Fireman" album(s) are out?! |

To answer 4000 Holes and Eyesbleed, I don't have it. (man I really owe Eyesbleed some cd's or something...) ;D
Agree that the Fireman stuff is great, I recently got the vinyl of the first one and capped it. (you know where to find it if you like) The bidding for this was some fierce!

So..... it looks like I need to see if I can make Fireman's Rushes & the L.S.C. magically appear in Jojo's mailbox ;D |

While I was gettin' these 2 cd's ready to magically appear in Jojo's mailbox, I was playin' Rushes this mornin'.... this is such a wonderful piece of work..... probably my #1 fave cd of ambient electronica.
But it dawned on me that this stuff needs to be playable in my mp3 player, so I'm makin' a 1-long-track version of each of these cd's.... Fireman 93/Strawberries etc, The Fireman - Rushes, & Liverpool Sound Collage.
So, if anybody's interested in these mp3 player-ready versions let me know.
