My name is Joshua Finkler, I'm a mathematics PhD student at Champaign-Urbana, Illinois. I first was introduced to Numan's music by a Welshman while living in a little village in Hungary, outside of Budapest. I'm more familiar with the older stuff (first 5 albums or so), and especially like the Tubeway Army and Telekon material. I'm also quite fond of more modern electronic stuff, and think that Skinny Puppy is probably the best of the genre. So, any more info. needed? I'm not sure what to tell you. -josh- ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 3 Oct 93 14:55:00 BST From: sm@genie.geis.com Subject: Notes.... To: numan@cs.uwp.edu Derek, I'm sorry to hear the news about Jory. Lots of hugs and sympathies from this side of the world. __________________________________________________________________________ Re: Beggar's Banquet -- I suspect the rumors are bogus. Amongst other things, they recently moved from a distribution deal with BMG here in the States to a distribution deal with WEA via East/West, something that should do well for the company. Plus, the new Buffalo Tom release is doing very well indeed in the States. I suspect the Numan recycling is just the periodic milking of the catalog -- Gary has kept on plugging away no matter what, and this gives BB a chance to periodically pump the market. I frankly expect "Cars" to be recycled every few years until the Last Trump, and even then Gabriel will probably throw the "Cars" riff in.
