As anticipated, mass dancing in the streets has broken out from Dundee to Dunedin (or possibly only in Dundee and Dunedin - details are sketchy). Little dogs have been singing along with early radio broadcasts of the song and one happy fan in Stoke is said to have been playing 'keepy-up' with a human head, possibly that of a neighbour, since yesterday morning. The public is advised, however, not to use up all its excitement at once, as there's an album, 'Top Banana', still to come (on June 29). WHATEVER YOU DO, it is ESSENTIAL that you preserve enough energy to go to a record shop later today and purchase a copy of 'The Reefer Song'. Pointed yet poignant, seething yet soothing, the Hoover's singular songs mark out a unique territory, like a tomcat pissing up a pole. Some say he's the missing link between Lenny Bruce, Acid House, Carly Simon and The Magic Roundabout. Others say he's a "one-man hell carpet". All we can tell you is that all the girls we know wanna fuck Mindless Drug Hoover - and so do all the boys! More details below, as we now have full track listings. THE REEFER SONG TOP BANANA Single Album CD: DVNT6CDS CD: DVNT13CD released: June 1, 1998 released: June 29, 1998 TRACKS TRACKS 1 The Reefer Song (The Orb 1 Theme From Hoover Pt1 2 - Grass Garden Of Child's Theme From Hoover Pt2 3 Sorry Mix) About The Shag 4 The Reefer 2 Fuck Off Song 5 Suicide Is Dangerous 6 3 Sorry About The Shag Prune 7 Murder Is Fun 8 Don't 4 The Reefer Song Take Ecstacy 9 Pancreas 10 (Original) Boxing Ring Of Love 11 Fluff 12 Fuck Off 13 Rust 14 Fag Stealer 15 Booze And Drugs Hell 16 Buy My Record 17 Where Is Claire? 18 Silence 19 Ring 20 Ansaphone 21 The Reefer Song (Orb Remix) BIOGRAPHICAL DETAILS: For many, he is the great unsung hero of the Deviant roster. For others, he has been the great unsinging hero of the Deviant roster, as his sky-rocket career has been somewhat suspended in orbit, a bit like that space station, since its spectacular launch with his acclaimed 'Don't Take Ecstasy' single in 1952. Despite several rave reviews for the 'Top Banana' album, its release has now been delayed for some time, along with the much-anticipated Orb remix of 'The Reefer Song'. But don't despair!! THIS MONTH sees the release of BOTH! Stay tuned to this site, and press, for further details - although it's debatable how many more we can get on to this page. Meanwhile, it's increasingly unlikely that Mindless will be playing one of his inimitable (well, no one's ever tried it) live shows near you. ***** i'd recommend getting the album, as all the tracks from the single are on it, plus lots of other gems. i THINK deviant do a mail-order service too... cheers. -- Smiley ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Smiley@cracl.demon.co.uk (Smiley) Subject: ORBULLETIN: Bits & bobs Date: 11 Jun 1998 16:50:21 GMT # This is an Orb announcement from the ORBULLETINS mailing list.
