Thanks- The box set from Capitol is a big-assed, bulky four-disc capable case, not three individual ones. Oh, and don't expect a "bonus" or anything "rare" because it's all the vanilla style recordings that you would normally find in the states. The cover art is the same as the cover of the box and the back art is (big surprise) the same as what is printed on the back of the box. Capitol might take some suggestions next time they decide to destroy three perfectly fabulous recordings and not try the "box" attempt. It does come with a nifty 'Radioactivity' sticker, a poster (of the damned cover) and a very simple "biography" of sorts. I paid $59.99 thinking that I was getting something truely cool, but soon discovered that the recordings are all in english and are the from the SAME, if not a generation down from, those infamous Capitol tapes that sound sooooooooo bad. Capitol should be punished!! Kill!!! KILL!!!! But seriously, the versions are not at all any different from the current Capitol releases here in the states (ie: suck sh*t). From what Hiroshi has written, we should expect more of the German recorded ones being available in select stores. Those are what I am really interested in, not these money-pit Capitol recordings.

Hi there Werkaholics, Glad to see that Rich is now back on line with his e:mail,...alright there Richie boy?!! Well, there has been various conversations in the past about the numerous tribute bands and artists that only try to achieve copies of KW material. Although this is a great honor to have such respect for a band such as KW, I think that all these aforementioned bands etc. are a complete waste of space. Why should you want to buy a record by someone who is only trying to replicate KW material when you can equally buy the real thing. This sugject reminds me of records that came out in the early Eighties by the 'Stars on 45' people, or worse still 'Jive Bunny' in the early nineties. We can all be influenced by artists when we try to create own own music, but please don't try and copy what they have already done, the music industry is full enough as it is with cover versions and the like, so don't add to the trash. Anyone want a copy of 'All In A Days Werk', tribute to KW 12 inch?!!!!

Craig Land wrote: > > Why should you want to buy a record by someone who is only trying to > replicate KW material Wrong, wrong, wrong ! 10 times wrong ! Big Black's or Snakefinger's covers of The Model are much more than simple replications of the original song. A song is not only a melody and some lyrics. It's also a matter of time, location and techniques of production. It's also a matter of musical / political / historical context. And that's even more true in the context of show bizness and modern recording techniques. May I tell a personal history ? 3 or 4 years ago I spent a few days in a small vietnamese village (in the mountains, closed to the cambodian border). You know, the kind of remote place with no sealed road, nothing to do in the evening and barely no electricity. One evening, some of the locals took me to a ballroom (the only meeting place for teenagers). In SE Asia, very often live bands of (very good) local musicians play in ballrooms and discos. And Asian people love songs from the west (see karaoke listings). And that night, guess which song the local band played to start the show ? Yes, THE MODEL !!! They made a 20 minutes cover version of the song, with lots of guitar solos, and everybody dancing like only Asian teenagers can do it (like showroom dummies, in fact). And I was on my knees : it's the best cover of that song I've never heard. jbv # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info kraftwerk" in the message. # Postings must go to kraftwerk@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 23 Jul 1997 13:36:47 -0400 From: muziknut2@juno.com (Adam Schefflan) Subject: Re: (kw) Let's Get Some Reaction... >>> On this subject everyone, did we ever sort out whether Professor X sampled KW, or if it was actually Techmaster PEB that the person meant? <<< Turns out it was TWO DIFFERENT Professor Xes!

Ai-yo, check this out: if you missed the first 30 seconds, you should know that MTV airs a re-broadcast of the week's show on Friday at 2am (Saturday morning).

I explain my idea: the big file is sliced in volumes with a multivolume compressor (arj or rar), volumes of, say, 500k or 1M. everybody who can/want could host a slice of the file and can link to the n+1 and n-1 slice. of course this could happen even for a limited period of time, until the "kernel-listies" have downloaded it. or we could arrange a "rotation" presence on a site of the file to download. then the newcomers could be served individually on demand by very kind-hearthed people (again, we can share this action: say I send the first 5 M, then listie X send the next 5 and so on...). this method has, in my view, a great advantage: the big file is packetized, so if after an unreliable download you loose only the last packet (is this the way even tcp-ip works?), and will add to our sense of community. the disadvantages are obviuos... it's unlikely that on average an individual can offer more than 1M, and even this only for a short period of time if s/he does not want to quit his own html creations, so we should be sixty generous coordinated people... remember what happened last time... but this time things could be maybe more technically complex but practically with less consequences should things go wrong. for myself, I can offer 1M. a possible arrangement could be this: those who can, offer 1M of space, and take charge of 5 slices of 1M each. then they put each one of those 5 slices to download in their site, in rotation, one every 2 or 3 days. this way with 12 volunteers it will take 10-15 days to do the whole job. say one month to broadcast the packets twice for those who lost something. or we could also use the usenet for this, so nobody's space is wasted... there are ways, just let us coordinate. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info kraftwerk" in the message. # Postings must go to kraftwerk@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 25 Jul 1997 02:30:29 +0200 From: lbo Subject: (kw) Drecker (?)
