[kj] [KJ] New Recording Information

[Karen Weil]

Ms. Dillinger: The Lancaster film is great, and I will take your word on the Halloween special -- especially if Alice Cooper's invovled -- a duet, no less. Where can I find such greatness? 
You make an interesting point about "Idiocracy." It definitely had a multiple personality -- and was downright amateurish in some scenes. Ah, well -- I suppose the director gets a point or two for trying, at least. 

Cheers,

Karen

  Oh come on, that is a classic (the Halloween special).  It was so surreal....he even did a song with a verse about Alice Cooper.  You gotta see that, Karen.
   
  Idiocracy I thought was some bizarre nightmares....engaging in product placement while in a very minor key touching on the results of consumerism run wild.  What audience were they looking for?  
   
  I also just saw "The Sweet Smell of Success", and the materials on the disc discussed how upset Hollywood execs were with Tony Curtis and Burt Lancaster playing the dark roles they did.......yet no exec pulled the plug on "Idiocracy"........ah, yes.......

  I'd probably prefer to watch that godforsaken 70s-era Halloween special than listen to anything by T.A.T.U., IMHO. 
  And yes, "Idiocracy" was sorely lacking. 

  Cheers,

    I gotta hear t.a.t.u's version now, thanks alot ;)......am on a cheesefest.....just watched "The Paul Lynde Halloween Special" with Donnie and Marie as well as KISS and the witch from "The Wizard of Oz"......BEST SPECIAL EVER!  
     
    I also watched "Idiocracy" and was really disappointed....I was so surprised they didn't touch on certain trends....it was like a bad (redundant, I guess) 2009 SNL movie.

    T.A.T.U. did a version of the song? Good Lord.

        In that case, avoid the T.a.t.u. version AT ALL COSTS.

          Thanks Todd, 'how soon is now' has always been my favourite Smiths  
          song (by
          that I mean the only one I can actually listen to!)

          John produced Firedances the single the only track that excelled  
          production
          wise on that album... he has produced many greats like the rolling  
          stones,
          the smiths ( "how soon is now" was his work)

          Forgive my ignorance, but who is john porter and what of theirs did he
          produce?

          Andy is great but he came in when kj wasn't exactly creating their  
          best. But
          in the right context it could be a great combo.

          For me, I would have john porter produce them again
