try www.redeye.com.au, even though they're EXPENSIVE. on the other hand, try the band at www.bluebottlekiss.com as they sometimes find copies down the back of a couch and are preared to sell em.

i could probably help but i'm hopeless and all my ceedees are far, far away from me. try their mailing list. or ebay.

ew, couch.

Red Eye is less expensive than Shock. Which are far less expensive than what we have over here in France.... postage fees included. So this is alright with me.
I don't go for Ebay that much. Plus I don't really care if it's an orginal or burnt copy...
I am trying to reach the band through the website but I don't want to crowd them more than they already are.
Thanks a lot to the person who offered to burn the CDs for me.

If anyone thinks of something else to offer, that's OK with me.... Feel free to email any time.

hmmm, I've had much difficulty finding some of their early stuff.

someone should help elise if they can.

wasn't there talk of whacking 'em all into one package at some stage? (Elevator Music; Double Yellow Tarred; Somnambulist)

if you don't have any luck, pm me in about 3 weeks just before i go home and i'll burn the stuff for you. i have it all (bar the first demo), so maybe tell me exactly what you want as well.

and yes, that applies to anyone else who wants copies.

also, i don't think the band are going to mind hearing from someone in france. if anything they'd be thrilled to know people like yourself exist.

[May be some help here

Management contact

I can help out with all three. burns at least. try the band direct and if you don't have any luck drop me a PM.

This would be a good idea.

While they're at it, how about a re-released on Fear of Girls, 2xLP in gatfold sleeve. nice.

did you sort it out elise?

Yes, I sorted it out ---in a way...
I am sorry I am not on anytime---I have a new job and I'm doing my best to keep this going.
Someone from that forum just sent me a couple of CDs for which I am extremely thankful.
"also, i don't think the band are going to mind hearing from someone in france. if anything they'd be thrilled to know people like yourself exist."=> yes I know, they already are "wink"
The worst thing about living in France is, that I don't know when I may go to a show.... Haha. I keep asking but they keep saying thay can't.

I mean, I keep in touch for the other stuff I may need.

Thanks to all.

I'd love the sonic elevator demo!
If I was good at burning cds I'd give you copies of the last playboy in town ep, all their bsides are pretty swell too, and the bonus disc etc.

try www.redeye.com.au, even though they're EXPENSIVE

pfft redeye are not expensive, they are compariable. fucken' support indie record stores you fuckers.

i think they're referring to the prices for the Bluebottle Kiss albums, rather than commenting on Red Eye in general. Defensive puritan.

they are fuckin expensive sometimes.

I suggest you all take a plane to France and try to buy a CD.
You'd be surprised how CHEAP Red Eye are........... even w/ BBK stuff.

I just picked up SOMNAMBULIST HOMESICK BLUES for $10 at Brunswick St Dixons. I have been looking for this for years.

mutherfucker!!!

i know

rock steveholt!

''familiar'' from that ep is so, so underrated.

did we have the same dream?
left it bleeding by the road
warped and scratched
like forgotten records in the sun
stolen broach in the hands
of the one you thought you loved
he's painting his number in the sky
you can't see a thing!

was thinking that too, goldfoot. sounds familiar though. despite my appreciation for this band not even i know all of their songs...despite probably owning everything that's been officially released.

Watching this as soon as i get home!

song playing over the end credits is 'you put out the fire' from the little bit of light ep.

the tribute night was a bit weird. Seemed quite disorganised. Highlights were Peter Fenton and co doing Ice on the Road, and the look on Jamie's face when one of the bands did a thrash version of Scouthall.

That is fantastic doco! Great way to spend an hour at work.

Made me want to go back and revisit the albums, which I guess is the point. Great soundtrack too. Think I'll make a mix:

A Little Bit Of Light
Little Disappearer
Exit 19B (Richard Fontain)
Last Playboy In Town
Gangsterland
I Remember When I Used To Love You
Slow Train To A Comfy Jail
You Put Out The Fire
Dream Audit
Sisters Head On
Everything Begins And Ends At Exactly The Right Time
Ministry Of Fear
Girl From The North Country (Dylan)
Judas Hands
Something Tiny
Return To The City Of Folded Arms
Slight Return
Fathers Hands
White Rider
You Put Out The Fire

I'd love to see the Richard Fontain cut too, where it just follows those guys. Willy's a legend around my parts.

Looking really forward to watching this now.

song playing over the end credits is 'you put out the fire' from the little bit of light ep.

Thanks. just bought it on itunes. Nice track.

Non Zero should put out a 'best of'.

Or maybe just the live album!

Yeah where the fuck is that live album?

Vimeo on my computer is like trying to watch a mega slowed down version of a Japanese table tennis tournament. Needless to say I watched all 50 mins and loved it. I am seriously thinking of going to a net cafe to watch it. I liked Jamie pointing out at the book store show about the BBK advertising

LOVING the doco.. So many familiar faces..

just watched this. nicely done.

Anyone heard the Jamie Hutchings solo release that comes out in a couple of weeks? You can check out a couple of streaming tracks and my review over at Soulshine:

Listen to whole thing at bandcamp

ooo i won that album at the smith kids thingy the other day. should probably listen to it.

album is so, so good

Whatwhat, I hadn't even THOUGHT about Familar for about four years. My God, I barely even listen to BBK anymore, yet they are still my favourite bnd, and will never be trumped. I think they have attached themselves completely to my most formative years.

Your Snow is amazing. Amazing.

By the way, I'm going to put Elevator Music up on the web somehow soon. I'll let everyone know when and where.

oh-oh-oh, so many BBK fans around... well so like I said somewhere else, I'll be in Brisbane next week / in Sydney by the end of the month, and it would be fun to meet you(s) :P
man, such an old thread :O

And also, anyone has fresh news of the live album (which we've been waiting for since 2008 if I remember correctly ...?)

Unfortunately, they burned all the live recordings to build anticipation for their reformation in 2020.
