Item 51: I can't find it anywhere!--the missing music item

Entered by orinoco on Wed Jun 18 01:21:04 1997:

For clueless folks like me, who hear music and don't remember where...

For starters:
Which band did that "Heaven let your light shine down" song?
On which U2 album (if any) did "Hold me Thrill me Kiss me Kill me" appear?
36 responses total.

#1 of 36 by jiffer on Wed Jun 18 04:01:23 1997:

i don't know about the first song, but the U2 song mentioned is actually on
the soundtrack to one of the Batman movies.


#2 of 36 by krj on Wed Jun 18 04:29:51 1997:

The "light shine down" song is on the Live album THROWING COPPER, if 
I remember correctly;  I only think I know this because Leslie has 
the disc around here somewhere.


#3 of 36 by senna on Wed Jun 18 06:53:13 1997:

Heaven Let your Light Shine down?  Ken is incorrect.  It is "Shine," by
Collective Soul, which was played all over the place in 1994.  The Album is
Hints, Allegations, and Things Left Unsaid, which was actually just a demo
album to demonstrate Ed Rolland's producing skills.  If you ever hear the song
live, it sounds a whole lot better (and is fun to sing along to).

jen beat me to the first one.  Batman sountracks seem to be getting all the
good sountrack songs.  And, of course, bad ones too.

BEEP!  I have Throwing Copper, and it's not there...Collective Soul sounds
right to me.


#5 of 36 by krj on Thu Jun 19 04:14:06 1997:

Yup.  Ah well.


#6 of 36 by senna on Thu Jun 19 20:31:49 1997:

It is, I have both.  And I've seen it in concert.


#7 of 36 by kewy on Tue Jun 24 17:52:28 1997:

anyone know where i might be able to get a copy of the soundtrack to
"memories" it's anime that i saw at animania.. and the music in it sounded
really cool, but i don't know where i'd even begin to look...


#8 of 36 by orinoco on Wed Jun 25 14:03:31 1997:

Any relation to that #^$*@ song from 'cats'?


#9 of 36 by krj on Fri Jun 27 03:44:38 1997:

Over in the Agora conference, item #5, response #53, bjorn mentions
items sold by a place called Anime Music Connection, so that seems 
like it might be a pretty good place for kewy to start.

nope, orinoco


#11 of 36 by orinoco on Sun Jun 29 13:41:50 1997:

Aah...then I'm afraid I've never heard of it...


#12 of 36 by carson on Wed Jan 7 01:16:19 1998:

(Jesse Jaymes' _Thirty-Footer In Your Face_: is it still in print?)

(KMD's _Black Bastards_: Elektra wouldn't release it because of the 
cover art; are bootlegs available?)

(Henry Rollins and RuPaul's "Funkytown": the compilation album that it 
was supposed to be on dropped refused to include it. has it been 
released commercially yet?)


#13 of 36 by lumen on Wed Jan 7 02:25:17 1998:

A cover of "Funkytown" with RuPaul in it?  Interesting..but who's Henry
Rollins?


#14 of 36 by eeyore on Wed Jan 7 06:17:11 1998:

Out of curiousity, has anybody ever seen a copy of "The Call"'s album
"Let the Day Begin"?  I'ts been out of print for a couple of years, but..:)


#15 of 36 by mcnally on Wed Jan 7 07:00:28 1998:

  re #13/14:  Henry Rollins is an ex- punk/hardcore musician (Black Flag,
  if I recall..) who's made a career doing more spoken word / monologue
  stuff in recent years (though he still records with a band sometimes the
  spoken word stuff has become the major focus of his performance and
  recording efforts lately..)


#16 of 36 by scott on Wed Jan 7 12:25:51 1998:

Meg, I've got an old used CD of "Let the Day Begin" I can easily part with,
if you want it.  I'm not very interested in The Call.  :/


#17 of 36 by carson on Thu Jan 8 00:42:52 1998:

re Henry Rollins: 

(The Rollins Band [his current group] played Lollapalooza a while back. 
it's hard to say whether Henry is better known for his role in Black 
Flag, or for his current foray into spoken word performances. POI: his 
spoken word performances usually feature the story of recording 
"Funkytown" with RuPaul near the end of the performance.)

(he's solo on the _Spawn_ soundtrack, but I don't remember who the 
co-artist was. it wasn't RuPaul.)  =^)


#18 of 36 by carson on Thu Jan 8 00:45:44 1998:

(sorry, that last paragraph doesn't make any sense. it should have read: 
"he's on the _Spawn_ soundtrack without the Rollins Band, but I don't 
remember who the co-artist was." the _Spawn_ soundtrack, BTW, featured 
pairings of acts rock and electronic, much in the way that the 
_Judgement Night_ soundtrack paired acts rock and rap.)


#19 of 36 by scott on Thu Jan 8 01:57:21 1998:

Rollins Band also has a track on the "Crow" soundtrack.


#20 of 36 by mcnally on Thu Jan 8 06:03:39 1998:

  I'd say he's a lot better known now then he ever was during his
  stint with Black Flag..  Not that that's saying a lot, as Black
  Flag wasn't all that well-known outside of the fairly insular 
  early 80s punk community.


#21 of 36 by eeyore on Thu Jan 8 06:22:56 1998:

#15 - Scott: *whimper*  NEed any cat sitting done?  (well, after the ears
heal.  :)


#22 of 36 by scott on Thu Jan 8 10:42:47 1998:

Relax, Meg.  The CD is yours.  :)


#23 of 36 by qui1 on Thu Feb 5 19:41:48 1998:

Not to change the subject of Black Flag or anything, but I'm in need. ;) 
There was a Grateful Dead album which I cannot remember the name to.  It had
a lot of people on the cover, the colors were less psychedelic, more harsher
pastels,  there were mountains with people on them, etc etc.  That is all I
remember, and if anyone knows what I am talking about, I will be both shocked
and quite "grateful".




#24 of 36 by krj on Mon Feb 9 18:31:39 1998:

My vague recollection is that "mountains with people on them" is the 
motif for the back cover of "Blues for Allah."  But there is only one 
figure on the front cover.  
http://www.cs.umd.edu/users/dabe/CDs/Artists/grateful.dead.html
seems to be a directory of Dead album covers


#25 of 36 by krj on Sat Mar 14 21:23:34 1998:

I'm looking for an album titled LA LLORONA by a Quebecois-Mexican
female singer named Lhasa.  Web searches have proved fruitless, and 
the one mail order source I know from Quebec, a company called 
Thirty Below, doesn't carry her disc.  I haven't yet called *all* 
my Canadian sources, but so far it's pretty discouraging.


#26 of 36 by teflon on Sun Mar 29 20:19:59 1998:

I've beeen looking for an album called "Terror and Buety".  I heard a bit of
it on NPR, and now I want it, but don't know where to fin


#27 of 36 by orinoco on Sun Mar 29 22:50:36 1998:

Oh, I'd forgotten about this item.  Neat.

I can't be of any help about "Terror and Beauty"  (I assume that's what
"buety" is code for), but I do have another Mystery Recording.  Has anyone
ever seen any albums by a band called the Vampire Rodents?


#28 of 36 by diznave on Fri May 15 17:43:50 1998:

Hmmm...well, this isn't an album...its a movie. But its musical (supposedly),
so I guess it fits. I can't find a copy of _Spinal Tap_ anywhere (for sale,
not for rent). A few places I've gone have told me that they're not able to
order it, because it seems to be unavailable for order. Has anyone purchased
a copy of it recently?



#29 of 36 by jiffer on Sun May 24 17:34:10 1998:

Not I, it might be out of print... or you might try some used music/ video
places.


#30 of 36 by eeyore on Tue Jun 16 04:21:05 1998:

My boyfriend has a copy of it....but I think he taped it off of
cable....hmmmm...You might want to try Comombia House Movies...:)


#31 of 36 by omni on Tue Jun 16 04:48:01 1998:

 The movie is called "This is Spinal Tap" and I might be able to help.

 Give me a few days.


#32 of 36 by omni on Tue Jun 16 04:56:06 1998:


   Try videoflicks.com.  They are in Toronto and they have very deep resources
for ordering movies. Chances are that they do and can get it for you. If you
strike out there, let me know and I'll do some more digging.

  Nothing is unavailable. ;)

"Today:
          Puppet Show
             and
          Spinal Tap"
 
back to #25: I found a Canadian web-store called CD Plus which lists
the Lhasa cd I was looking for; we'll see if they can deliver it.


#34 of 36 by oddie on Tue Jan 25 05:17:04 2000:

When I was about ten or eleven, back in New Zealand, I had a whole bunch of
old '60s lps, mostly folk and folk-rock (Simon and Garfunkel, CSNY, etc.) that
my parents were done with. One of them had a song on it called "Sing, sweet
Sebastian" (or maybe "Sebastian," I don't remember); I don't know the name
of the singer/band either...the album might be called "My Side of your window"
or I might be mixing it up with another lp. I don't know if I'd still like
it but it would be nice to find for "old times' sake." Has anybody a clue
what I'm blathering about?


#35 of 36 by krj on Sat Feb 5 06:20:10 2000:

I have no clue, and I couldn't mine anything out of google.com either.


#36 of 36 by charcat on Fri Jun 23 09:50:41 2000:

responding to #28  this is spinal tap will be avalable at amazon.com on sept
12   vhs is 12.99   and dvd is 20.99    i've found many things here that i
thought wern't avalable anymore, especially books,  anyway it's a good place
to look and see if anything your looking for is avalable, whether you'r going
to buy from them or not.
