360.0. "MM & the Deep Fix" by KERNEL::FLOWERS (The final countdown...) Wed Mar 01 1989 17:01

    
    
    Ok let's see just how many people do read this conference!!
    
    I need some help tracking down a copy of a record that I 
    heard about twice some 4-5 years ago. If my memory serves
    me correctly I believe it is called "Michael Moorcock and
    the Deep Fix" and features some wierd sort of run down
    fairground on the album cover. I was told when I first 
    heard the record that is was rare then so it might just be 
    impossible to get now, although I am not really after the
    album itself, so if anyone does have a copy and could tape
    it for me I would be forever in their debt.
    
    Cheers, 
    
    	Jason.
    
    PS. Sorry to the moderators if this is in the wrong place
        it has just occured to me that there is probably a 
        wanted note so if need be move it there.

T.R	Title	User	Personal Name	Date	Lines
360.1	STRANGELY STRANGE BUT ODDLY NORMAL	CHEFS::TARRINGG		`Thu Mar 09 1989 23:17`	3
	READ ALL HIS BOOKS, HE USED TO WRITE FOR HAWKWIND. BIFF
360.2	Kip of the Serenes	WELMTS::GREENB	burning with optimism's flames	`Fri Mar 10 1989 11:21`	8
	Yep, another MM reader here (Moorcock, not Muddly Maker, stoopid), but I've never heard the Deep Fix stuff, unfortunately. Guy, I like that title on your last note, do you know where it's from? More importantly, do you know where I can get hold of the lp? Bob
360.3	Deep Fix, aka Hawkwind	45944::CREASY	Smile out loud	`Fri Mar 10 1989 11:35`	7
	I remember that LP... (shows his age). I've no idea where you'd get hold of a copy, it wasn't exactly what you'd call a best seller! If I remember right, "Deep Fix" was actually Hawkwind (didn't Ken mention that in his Hawkwind bit?). Nick
360.4	The art school dance goes on forever...	LEROUF::MERRICK	Every silver lining has a cloud	`Fri Mar 10 1989 12:52`	9
	As Nick said, refer to the Kings of Oblivion note... but Micheal Moorcock often guested at Hawkwind gigs and is featured on the Warrior lp. His album - Micheal Moorcock and the Deep Fix "New World Fair" is/was on United Artites UAG 29732, released may 1975. The Deep Fix was Dave Brock, Simon King, Alan Powell, Simon House and Terry Ollis (or if you like Hawkwind line-up 9 that sacked Lemmy) plus others. Now, let's hear it for Pete Brown and Piblokto.
360.5	Things may come and things may go....	WELMTS::GREENB	burning with optimism's flames	`Fri Mar 10 1989 13:38`	5
	re last - to say nothing of the Battered Ornaments. Chris Spedding lives! Bob
360.6	Michael who?	SQGUK::NOCK	I'LL have a Babycham	`Fri Mar 31 1989 12:38`	8
	I'd never heard of MM until the immortal line (well praps not) by � man � biscuit --- Moorcock, Moorcock, Michael Moorcock you fervently moan. Then I saw a really bad "journey to the centre of the earth" type film base on one of his books. Apologies to everyone concerned. Paul
360.7	MM can't sing to save his RuneSword	SYSTEM::HARRISONP		`Wed Jun 14 1989 14:14`	4
	MM sang lead vocals on the track Coded Languages from Hawkwind's Sonic Attack LP. Great song, terrible singing. Paul th Contractor
360.8	Yeh!!! He CANNOT sing!!!	KERNEL::FLOWERS	The final countdown...	`Tue Jun 20 1989 14:45`	7
	For what its worth I have got hold of a tape of "New world Fair" and it is excellent....I agree about the singing it is awful but the lyrics are great. J.
