Actually, if you go back and click on the Sadie Frost link above, I changed it to one with all of her looks in that movie.
I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

Buffista Music II: Wrath of Chaka Khan
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

That's from one of the UK music magazines, right? Pete has a copy of it back at his parents' house.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
So watching VH-1 Classic's The Alternative is exposing me to a bunch of 90s British bands that I more or less ignored in the 90s. These are mostly groups associated with the shoegazer scene.
Who's got an opinion on the following records?
Spooky - Lush
Isn't Anything - MBV
Blurred Crusade - The Church
Nowhere - Ride
Ferment - Catherine Wheel
Wake Up - Boo Radleys

Ferment - Catherine Wheel
I own it and I love it. The songs are incredibly textured. Chrome is another album of theirs that's great--there's a song called "The Nude" which is all about the singer going to a museum and falling in love with a woman in a painting.
If you're going to get a Church album, go with Starfish.

Tempted, because the video for "Reptile" had all kinds of cool dual guitar interplay. The Catherine Wheel video for "Black Metallic" really caught my eye and ear. I think I'd (unfairly) dismissed them as MBV wannnabees, but there was obviously something going on that was smart and interesting in that song.

Isn't Anything - MBV
Is that the one with "Cupid Come"?

Yep, it is. Seminal.
Nowhere - Ride
From Allmusic:
Nowhere seems to hold consensus as the second-best record of the shoegaze era, and with very good reason. All of the common words, phrases, and adjectives commonly used with the short-lived subgenre fit properly here, and they're all positive, every one of them. Whir, whoosh, haze, swirl, ad nauseum -- this record holds all of these elements at their most exciting and mastered.
I wouldn't be quite so effusive, but it is very good. Equally worthwhile by Ride is the "Smile" album which collects their first two EPs. "Chelsea Girl" (not that one) is a great song and worthy of the title.

And also because it really ought to be against the law not to have "Under the Milky Way" as a part of your music library.
