Re: Bungalow with Stairs album
mine showed up today also.. (east coast, usa)..

thanks underworld for the great pre-christmas
delivery...

and yeah, i cut it close.. got to the post office
1 minute after they closed.. but they were nice
enough to get it for me...otherwise i would have
had to wait for a couple weeks (going on vacation)..

haven't listened to it yet.. will do that soon..

but after all this time i think in all fairness for the price of the book
and the music, it's a great package.... and well worth it.

got number 462 for me, and 463 for my brother..

later

Re: Bungalow with Stairs album
I too have received mine today.

I too had but less than a minute to chase down the mail woman as she drove back down the other side of the street after seeing the dreaded "Sorry we missed you!" card. If I had arrived home any later then that then I'd have been fucked............

I too have not listened to it yet, because I decided that there's nothing else I want as bad for Christmas ( ) and that I should in essense torture myself longer by wrapping it up and saving it under the Christmas tree.

Re: Bungalow with Stairs album
I think BWS is a fantastic piece of work! It shows off the side of Underworld / Rick
that I tend to like the most. I listen to it on the train from work all the time! In fact,
the ratio of BWS to Barking plays is easily over 10-1 for me!

- It might have been mentioned somewhere earlier in this thread, so I appologize if it
has, but the high pitched vocal parts in "Dreeve" and "(Soundtrack for the film) Van
Halen Van Halen" were conversations between Rick and John Warwicker that were
recorded (by Rick) as they walked around Soho about 15 years ago. I got that
straight from the horse`s (Warwicker`s) mouth!

Knowing the above puts everything in better context, and makes understanding what
they are talking about, and who is saying what, a lot easier. I`ve listened to Dreeve
pretty closely and you can understand most of it! They are basically having a light
conversation about graphic art, music, etc... Again, many probably already know
about the conversations, but for those that don`t I think this is a truly fascinating part
of the album, and (for the parts that can be understood) it opens a small and brief
window into what was going on back then in Rick and John`s mind, while at the
same time leaving out any specific references to pieces of art/music that they were
working on at the time!

btw - It seems that Rick used to have a dog named "Bill"
