Subject: Wilson Suite
I mentioned in an earlier post that I had attended the
BW show in Denver. My impression of the Suite was that I
enjoyed it, but I don't know if it had the impact I had
hoped. The audience never seemed to get it. There was
too much noise and talking which seem to diminish the
impact of presentation. I wish I had been in symphony
hall in salt lake city to hear it because I am sure the
accoustics of a hockey arena where I was would have an
adverse impact. The richness of the sound could not
fully be appreciated imho. I did love the impact of
Sail on Sailor and its transition to the next song and
the outright beauty of Prayer.
I have found that a boot I have of the suite really
feels better at night with the lights off and the
headphones on.
Thanks VDP for another wonderful experience.

Dear Members:
I am new to Spectropop. I am interested in corresponding
with anyone who has an interest in the Red Bird & Blue
Cat labels. I have a particular interest in the rarer
releases towards the end of the life of the labels.
Regards,
Geoff Mullins

Subject: Phil Spector / BBC programme "Unlocked"
What a great site!
I bet you guys can help! I'm producing a TV series for
the BBC in England for transmission next year, (Unlocked
- 25x15min episodes - each one about one classic song)
and I'm desperate to include Phil Spector. I know the
chances of getting him to contribute are minimal, but
I've got to try. Does anyone out there know who manages
him or where his HQ is?
You can call me on the BBC switchbaord in London on
(omitted from archived message) or email me at (omitted
>from archived message) if you have any info.
We'll be in the States later this month for about 2 weeks.
All the best
DES

Subject: DA DOO RON RON club night re-locates to Brighton
Dear Spectropopsters:-
I am extremely chuffed to announce that after a 5 month
hiatus, Da Doo Ron Ron is to phoenix once again.
As from Saturday (yes, Saturday!) October 14th 2000,
DDRR will take place on the second Saturday of every
month (ie. Sat Oct 14th, Sat Nov 11th, Sat Dec 9th et al)
at the BANANA BAR in Brighton.
Full details of the venue are as follows:-THE BANANA BAR
(aka Banana-On-The-Square), 05 Regency Square, Brighton,
Sussex, BN1 2FG. Tel: 01273 203090 Web site:-
http://www.bananabar.co.uk/
The Banana Bar is situated at the bottom of Regency
Square, Brighton, almost directly opposite the famous
(and collapsing) West Pier. It's a cozy (approx 100
capacity) private members club / bar, with a groovy 50's
/ 60's decor, that will hopefully recreate the requisite
DDRR ambience.
VERY IMPORTANT:-Doors - 8pm 'til late, however, there is
strictly NO ENTRY after 10.30pm, so please, please
arrive early to avoid disappointment!
DJ wise, I am pleased to herald a new compadre, Simon
Bridger (aka Simon Soul). Si's a familiar name on the
northern scene & previously ran 'Ooh Baby Baby', a
fantabulous girly night here in Brighton. We will be
spinning the usual femmetastic mix of Motown minxes,
northern nightingales, Detroit dollies, searing soul
sirens & Brit popstrels. Think Marvelettes, Vandellas,
Chris Clark, Shangri-La's, Ronettes, Dusty, Petula,
Velvelettes, Supremes, Flirtations, Maxine Brown et al
For more info please check out the DDRR
