360.0. "MM & the Deep Fix" by KERNEL::FLOWERS (The final countdown...) Wed Mar 01 1989 20:01

    
    
    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		`Fri Mar 10 1989 02:17`	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 14:21`	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 14:35`	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 15:52`	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 16:38`	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 15:38`	8
360.7	MM can't sing to save his RuneSword	SYSTEM::HARRISONP		`Wed Jun 14 1989 17:14`	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 17:45`	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.
