    Rob, is there any word on when she will appear, or has this already
    happened?  I'd love to see the interview.

    Can you give us some links? I know John Rausch always has great 
    Ronettes stuff on his page, but are there other sources I  may 
    have missed?

    I bought a very nice Technics SL-D1 direct drive turntable at a 
    Local Thrift Store for 10(!) Dollars two years ago, and the only 
    thing that needed replacing was the cartridge! Its not a Technics 
    SL-1200 (which most radio or club/rap DJ's use) but its quiet, 
    lets me cue up records for copying to CD and does the job for me!

    Anything by Linda Scott attains gem status with me.

    Hi All!
    I just got back from a brief trip to Memphis and Jackson, 
    Mississippi. While there, I heard an oldies station (for Yazoo 
    City, MS) that played some unusual tracks for oldies. Some of what
    I heard:
    Supremes-I'm Livin' In Shame
    Martha & The Vandellas-Come And Get These Memories
    Gene Pitney-Backstage
    Beatles-Octopus' Garden
    Of course, there were big hits too (My Girl, etc.)
    
    Unfortunately, I suspect this was an automated system because I 
    never heard an announcement of what songs had been played. 
    Dave

    <<I recently picked up "Take It Easy With The Walker Brothers" on CD
     and was very pleased. Anyone know if their other 2 (?) LPs are any 
     good?>>
    
    
    all i own is the *anthology* cd from one way, but it's convinced 
    me i need all of the reissues as soon as i can afford them (or 
    they come out domestically)...i bought it at the same time i 
    bought the scott walker comp on razor & tie (having only heard "
    the sun ain't gonna..." [of course] and "make it easy..." and 
    scott's "big louise" and figuring i should take all i can get), 
    and now my scott library has jumped from 2 discs (counting the 
    brothers comp) to 7...and i'm gonna try & get everything in 
    scott's catalog...with and without his "siblings"...
    
    btw, if anyone knows where i can find *scott 1*, *scott 3*, and/or
    *climate of hunter* on cd, please alert me...all of the online 
    places have 'em backordered if they carry them at all...
    
    thanx,
    
    jeff
