Advice nedded: 85/1.8 + 20/2.8 vs 28-300 VR
I need some advice on which lens to get for my D700 body. I currently own the 50mm 1.8, and am looking to expand. I am an amateur enthusiast, who mainly shoots portrait, but I also enjoy shooting landscapes. I am torn between these two options: 1) get two lenses, one for portrait, one for landscapes: - Nikkor AF-S 85 mm 1.8 G - Nikkor AF D 20mm 2.8 or 2) get the new 28-300 VR, for approximately the same money. I know this one is more convenient, but image quality is very important to me. So should I sacrifice convenience and get the prime lenses, or should I opt for the convenient all-round lens at the risk of loosing quality? Or are there other lenses in this price range I should consider? I would really appreciate some buying advice and input here, to help me guide my choices. Thank you very much in advance! Dan Nov 13 12 12:29 pm Link Don't even consider putting that piece of crap 28-300 on your D700...go with the primes! Nov 13 12 01:23 pm Link No.1 best choice for me.
No. 2 , I also had that lens and it just gathered dust. Sold it off after 6 months. . Nov 13 12 04:34 pm Link I recently tested the D7000 with the 70-300 VR at f/8 and it was surprisingly as sharp as the 85mm. It is significantly discounted new to 350CAD so used prices are being driven down too. Nov 13 12 05:48 pm Link I like my 20 2.8 AF on my D700. I've had the 85 1.8AF and still have an 85 1.4AFD both of which I like. I've read wonderful things about the 85 1.8G. Nov 13 12 05:57 pm Link actually I was loaned a 28-300 to play with and was fairly impressed
--- for what it is - a prosumer super zoom - it's actually reasonably impressive I've taken some astounding wildlife shots with it at the long end. Fully equal to the 300 f4 AFS (but not approaching the 300 f2.8) plenty of distortion but depending on what you are shooting perhaps not terribly relevant flare is well controlled colours are not quite up to Nikon par but just barely. my own bias would be to go prime for a lot of things - the only zoom I routinely use when there is money to be made is the 24-70f2.8 Nov 13 12 06:11 pm Link Fotografica Gregor wrote: I have the 300 f4 and its very sharp even wide open. I'd love to see what you consider sharp at 300mm on the 28-300. I know the 70-300 can't touch the 300 f4 anywhere close to 300, and I have my doubts that a super zoom can either! Nov 13 12 08:50 pm Link Mister Denial wrote: 1 Nov 13 12 11:28 pm Link Ever consider the 24-120 f4 lens... I heart mine. Nov 13 12 11:38 pm Link Not or ever have been a fan of the super zooms so personally I wouldn't consider one so have nothing to say of them. Again, personally I've never shot an 85 f1.8 I liked a lot of others do though. I can say that the 20mm f2.8 D is one of my favorites. It's good handy and a lot of fun. I usually just set mine on f11 and set manual focus at 1.5 feet and shoot away. Nov 13 12 11:48 pm Link Thanks everyone for their input and help!
I'm definitely leaning towards solution 1, which was my initial choice too; I just got sidetracked by the many great reviews I read on the 28-300, including great bokeh. For the 85mm, I have hesitating between the 1.8 D and the 1.8 G - I read the 1.8 D is sturdier (metal) compared to the plastic feel of the 1.8 G, but the 1.8 has apparently awesome image quality. What are your thoughts on this lens? D or G ? Nov 14 12 07:56 am Link I tried the new 70200 f4 VR on a D800 the other day. Very nice even wide open.
Mind you it's not that much cheaper than the 2.8 of the same. Nov 14 12 08:04 am Link Mister Denial wrote: I am sorry to disappoint many but the metal exterior lenses are not necessarily more durable when comparing professional lines. The "plasticky" lenses can often handle more shock without causing internal damage.
Nov 14 12 08:07 am Link gl-amour wrote: Wouldn't doubt it... I've had my 70-300 ED-VR for a few years now... very impressed and shot this with it... tack sharp for a telephoto zoom...
Nov 14 12 08:08 am Link 28-300 is very good on 12MP cameras, such as D700; but, it shows its limitations on 36MP bodies. Legendary shooter Jay Meisel used to shoot with only 70-300VR on his D3s, and now he only shoots with 28-300. Nov 14 12 08:09 am Link Okay, thanks for the info on the lens material, because that was exactly what I was thinking. Read on Ken Rockwell's website that it feels very cheap, so I was a little unsure.
Stellar performance sounds exactly what I was hoping for, so the choice looks more and more like the 85mm + wide angle instead of zoom. @ Select Models: do you mind asking, which lens did you use for this shot? http://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/28934157 Nov 14 12 09:55 am Link Usually I prefer zooms but zooms of that range IMO they are walk around lense and a good back up so I say go with the primes.

CNN Link I found this line amusing... I also found this interesting. I know that there has been some complaints about the RNC disrupting life in NYC. The DNC sounds just as bad. I would be upset if I had to close my business for a week! But then I think back to my first Mardi Gras when I lived near the parade routes. I was too busy to stop and participate that year, and I was pissed at all of the street closures. I couldn't get to my house for hours at a time. Years later, I just close down my office Monday and Tuesday Mardi Gras week. You know what they say, you have to roll with the punches. And if you run your life on such a razor's edge that a week of non productivity will destroy you, then you kind of brought this on yourself.
the stuff you quoted from the article doesn't surprise me. i saw a piece about this on the news the other night, the thing i didn't like was that, again, the protesters have been assigned a "protest zone" and will be kept away from the delegates. i did note, however, that in Boston, at least the protestors are in sight of the convention center. i'm getting really sick of this protest zone BS.
If you haven't already seen it, take a look at the Daily Show's insight on the topic in the clip called "Freedom of Oppression".
I was listening to NPR on the way home today and they had a reporter in Boston to tell how the convention was going. He mentioned that rush hour hadn't been too bad, that the amazing amount of guns on the streets wasn't too freaky, and that everyone was handling the random bag searches really well. Random bag searches!? And people are okay with this? The guy also described the mood as "Fortress Boston", which has got to be the worst idea organizers could've picked. Sure, the terrorists haven't won, but we're shutting down the highway, having the army patrol the streets, and randomly searching anyone who walks by. Fortress Boston is what Bush would like to turn America into. Fortress America. It turns the stomach.
But it does have a nice ring to it, "Fortress Boston." Now, were the random bag searches conducted all over the city or just in/around the DNC? Lethal
i loved nader's response to a question of whether he'll go to the convention, and/or if he'll go to the free speech zones and stand with protesters... something along the lines of... "i don't get that, a 'free speech zone'.... so what's everything else? non-free speech zones?" sums it up quite nicely keep in mind that 4 years ago, the dems stood in the staple center and watched as police tear gassed protesters.. also who was president when the wto protesters were beaten and gassed in seattle?

News & Interviews for Every Which Way But Loose
Critic Reviews for Every Which Way But Loose
All Critics (13) | Fresh (4) | Rotten (9) | DVD (2)
Just weird enough to work as a fun time capsule in a half-baked sort of way.
An amusing redneck comedy from that brief period of time when Clint Eastwood was copying Burt Reynolds.
Every which way but good.
Goofy but amiable comedy with great country music.
Clint and an organgutan....
A career low for Eastwood. Oh wait, except for the sequel.
Audience Reviews for Every Which Way But Loose
A comic classic. Clint Eastwood is terrific in his first comedy feature with a orangutan who proves to be more than a worthy sidekick. A hilarious and enormously entertaining adventure that`s just a pure blast. A tremendously fun and exciting action-packed comedy. You cant help but love this movie for its humor and heart. It`s nothing but a good time. A true gem that you don't want to miss.
Super Reviewer
Every Which Way is suprisingly good considering Eastwood wasn't made for this sort of movie. It boasts memorable lines and characters and although it has it's flaws ncluding its god-awful pacing. Every Which Way But Loose is uninspired but fun entertainment.
Super Reviewer
Clint Eastwood wins an orangutan in a fist fight and they quickly become best friends. A bizarrely charming movie ensues.

One Person's Trash...
So, this week I've had a million things to do, many of which have been those boring, mundane everyday type things that build up (since I tend to avoid them as long as possible), and just wait for you to trip over them or you know, starve to death, before you take action. In the middle of one of these chores (aka 'For the love all that is holy, clean your workbench'), I came across some good size scraps of copper sheet metal left over from some star ornaments I made awhile ago. Well, I think I must have blacked out or something (I'm sure it was a reaction to the cleaning or maybe a flash of inspiration) because suddenly I was cutting, filing, hammering, polishing and torching like a madwoman! I guess it's true -- one person's trash is another person's treasure... 13 pairs of earrings were the result!
Now, back to that list...

Let's get Personal!
2012 Star Ornament |
Over the last several months a number of customers have made inquiries about personalizing some of the pieces in my shop -- most frequently, wondering about adding the date or an initial or a special word to my beaded holiday ornaments. I had been thinking of offering some custom add ons and ways to personalize gift giving for the coming holiday season and so I got to work! Handstamping metal bits are a wonderful opportunity to create that meaningful touch and I've had fun experimenting. My first offering is a custom date or intial stamp for the ornaments (or any other item from my shop!). Of course you know, once I get started, the options are endless -- here's what is available so far!

Squiggle Bookmarks!
I've been making these funky Squiggle Bookmarks for a few years now, previously only available at local shows and in our seasonal shop. I love playing with the wire to make these mod shapes and then I hammer them to help them hold their squiggles and spirals, ready for lots of use! Recently I found a supplier for these fabulous hip colors of aluminum wire -- I could barely contain myself until I had time to create -- oh my, I LOVE these colors! And, I'm offering them in sets of three in my Etsy shop for this holiday season-- come on by and check them out!

one fine October morning...
After a wet and dreary last few days, this morning dawned crisp, clear and with autumn perfection! This view is the reason we moved outside the city! Yesterday I made a post office run (now 15 minutes each way :), and noticed the fall color is really beginning...brilliant reds and oranges on the maple trees and yellow on the birches - life is good!
I had a visitor today - a beautiful large piliated woodpecker usually drops by in the autumn to gorge on the dark blue berries on my virginia creeper. He had his fill today -- isn't he gorgeous?!
fall color,
life is great,

Fredericton Fall Craft Show was a huge success!
It was a mild rainy weekend, perfect weather for Fredericton's Fall Craft Show, held at the Capital Exhibit Center this past weekend. The show was expanded to three days this year giving plenty of time for the lovers of handmade to visit and indulge themselves!
Friday and Saturday were like old home week! It was wonderful to see and chat with friends, family and many loyal local customers who dropped by the show.
It was also great to catch up with several of my 'maker' friends that I haven't seen since last season and meet some new artisans too (hi Donna!). Wishing everyone a fabulous and busy holiday crafting season~
Many thanks to the those who began their holiday shopping or indulged themselves with one of my creations and also to the organizers for their hardwork and dedication to the handmade community right here in my hometown!

Racer Early OriginsThe surname Racer was first found in Carmarthenshire (Welsh: Sir Gaerfyrddin), located in Southwest Wales, one of thirteen historic counties and presently one of the principal area in Wales. Sir Elidir Dhu who flourished temp. Richard I., was the direct descendant of the family of Rees of Killymaenllwyd, county Carmarthen. [1]CITATION[CLOSE] Lowe, Mark Anthony, Patronymica Britannica, A Dictionary of Family Names of the United Kingdom. London: John Russel Smith, 1860. Print. "In 1115, Grufydd ab Rhys, Prince of South Wales, took sanctuary in the church of Aberdaron, from the treachery of Grufydd ab Cynan, sovereign of North Wales, who intended to deliver him into the hands of the English monarch, Henry I. The young prince escaped with his partisans by night, and set forward on his journey to the deep forest of Strath Towy, in South Wales, where, having collected the adherents of his family, he commenced hostilities against the Norman and Flemish settlers. " [2]CITATION[CLOSE] Lewis, Samuel, A Topographical Dictionary of Wales. Institute of Historical Research, 1849, Print. Racer Spelling VariationsRacer Spelling VariationsThere are relatively few surnames native to Wales, but they have an inordinately large number of spelling variations. Early variations of Welsh surnames can be explained by the fact that very few people in the early Middle Ages were literate. Priests and the few other literate people were responsible for recording names in official documents. And because most people could not specific how to properly record their names it was up to the individual recorder of that time to determine how a spoken name should be recorded. Variations due to the imprecise or improper recording of a name continued later in history when names originally composed in the Brythonic Celtic, language of Wales, known by natives as Cymraeg, were transliterated into English. Welsh names that were documented in English often changed dramatically since the native language of Wales, which was highly inflected, did not copy well. Occasionally, however, spelling variations were carried out according to an individual's specific design: a branch loyalty within the family, a religious adherence, or even patriotic affiliations could be indicated by minor variations. The spelling variations of the name Racer have included Rees, Reece, Rhys, Ap Rhys and others. Racer Early HistoryRacer Early HistoryThis web page shows only a small excerpt of our Racer research.

The Great MigrationThe Great MigrationMany Welsh families joined their Scottish and Irish neighbors during the late 1800s and early 1900s in seeking refuge in North Ameri ca. Like the Irish and Scottish, many Welsh anxiously awaited the work, freedom, and opportunities that they believed lay in North America. Those who did journey over to the United States and what became known as Canada often realized those dreams, but only through much toil and perseverance. Whenever and however these Welsh immigrants arrived in North America, they were instrumental in the creation of the industry, commerce, and cultural heritage within those two developing nations. In the immigration and passenger lists a number of early immigrants bearing the name Racer were found: Henry Reece settled in Nevis in 1663; along with Jane; Richard Reece settled in New England in 1668; Barbara, Jacob, Mathew, Thomas and William Reece all arrived in Philadelphia between 1840 and 1870. MottoMottoThe motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto. Motto: Spes melioris aevi Motto Translation: The hope of a better age. Racer Family Crest ProductsRacer Family Crest ProductsSee AlsoSee AlsoCitationsCitations

-by Daniel Mogollon, Staff Writer; Image: Quinton Coples gets to Raiders quarterback Matt McGloin. (Image Source: Ed Mulholland/USA TODAY Sports)
Here's a look back at the 2012 NFL Draft picks of the New York Jets two years into their NFL careers:
Round 1; 16th Overall: DE Quinton Coples, North Carolina: Drafted as a defensive end, a five-technique in Rex Ryan's defensive scheme, plans changed once the Jets used the No. 13 overall pick in the 2013 NFL Draft to select defensive lineman Sheldon Richardson out of Missouri. In his second NFL season, Coples was asked to change positions and play outside linebacker, with his hand off the ground. His development was curtailed by a preseason injury, which not only cost him two games, but valuable reps at his new position. Coples hasn't played up to expectations but his 10 sacks in two seasons blows away anything Vernon Gholston did for the Jets. He has the size (290 pounds) to be very strong against the run and the athleticism to make an impact as a pass rusher. This is a big season for the UNC man.
Round 2; 43rd Overall: WR Stephen Hill, Georgia Tech: The Ramblin' Wreck from Georgia Tech has similar attributes to fellow former Yellow Jackets Calvin Johnson and Demaryius Thomas. He's big (215 pounds), long (6'4") and has 4.4-speed. However, that's where the comparisons end. Through two seasons, Hill has been a shaky route runner, an inconsistent pass catcher and he's had trouble staying on the field, which is part of the reason the Jets signed Eric Decker and drafted three wide outs this offseason. This won't be the first or last time you'll hear this, 2014 is a make or break season for Hill.
Round 3; 77th Overall: ILB Demario Davis, Arkansas State: Of New York's top three picks in this class, Davis's 2013 campaign was by far the most productive. After backing up Bart Scott as a rookie, Davis took over for the veteran in the starting lineup last season and finished second on the club with 107 tackles. The speedy Davis increased New York's athleticism at the second level, however he needs to make more splash plays (1 sack, 5 TFLs, 1 PD, 1 INT, O FFs, 0 FRs) moving forward. Davis has the look of a good but not great inside linebacker, with the potential to be a three-down player.
Round 6; 187th Overall: S Josh Bush, Wake Forest: The sixth-round pick has stuck, but with 28 tackles in two seasons, he has made very little impact as a defender. Safety is still a thin position but Bush will have to earn his spot on the club and unless he plays better this season, he's a third stringer at best.
Round 6; 202nd Overall: RB Terrance Ganaway, Baylor: The big back fit the Jets mold, but couldn't make the team. He was picked up by the St. Louis Rams, but only saw limited action in three games (no touches).
Round 6; 203rd Overall: OG Robert Griffin III: Another former Bear who failed to make an impact in the NFL. The Colts signed him to the practice squad and then to a futures contract but he was waived prior to the start of the 2013 season. He has yet to see action since matriculating at Baylor.
Round 7; 242nd Overall: S Antonio Allen, South Carolina: Possibly New York's top pick in terms of value. Allen has proven himself to be a rotational player who might be a starter in this league. He made some big plays in 2013 (pick six of Tom Brady) but still has room to grow in coverage. With the addition of first-round pick Calvin Pryor, Allen will have to earn his playing time this season.
Round 7; 244th Overall: WR Jordan White, Western Michigan: Just like in college, White's pro career has been plagued by injuries. Eventually White became one of the most productive receivers as a collegian, however it appears his time in the NFL may have come to end when the Jets released him last August.

We read with great interest the meta-analysis by Wang et al.,1 who evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) for the staging of hepatic fibrosis. The authors concluded that MRE is more reliable for staging hepatic fibrosis. This is a significant contribution to our knowledge, as recent advances in MRI techniques have made the use of these methods common in clinical practice. In our opinion, attention must also be focused on several technical parameters of MRI methods before physicians can safely interpret the results.
The standard MRI scanners currently use a 1.5-Tesla magnetic field. This is also the type of scanner that was used in all the studies included in the meta-analysis by Wang et al. Theoretically, new-generation 3-Tesla scanners could enhance the ability for hepatic fibrosis staging. Especially for DWI, another vital parameter is the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and its b value. ADC reflects diffusion in a quantitative way and b value illustrates the sensitivity of a DWI sequence. The higher the b value, the more sensitive the sequence is to diffusion effects.2 Conflicting results have been published on the optimal b value for hepatic fibrosis staging.3 This was also remarkably reflected in the great variation of b values used in the studies of the meta-analysis.
We recently presented our preliminary results on hepatic fibrosis staging in a small cohort of patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) using a 3-Tesla MRI scanner.4 DWI was performed in the axial plane with tridirectional diffusion gradients using three b values: 0, 500, and 1000 s/mm2. Fibrosis stage was poorly associated with ADC at a b value of 500 s/mm2 (r = −0.30, P = 0.27). However, it was significantly associated with ADC at a b value of 1,000 s/mm2 (r = −0.57, P = 0.01). For this b value the area under receiver-operating characteristic curve was 0.93 for fibrosis stage ≥3 and the optimal ADC cutoff value was 1.16 × 10−3 s/mm2 (positive predictive value: 100%, negative predictive value: 90%).
To our knowledge there are no published data on liver fibrosis staging with 3-Tesla MRI scanners in patients with NAFLD. The broader availability of this technology might enhance the performance of DWI for fibrosis staging. Given that DWI does not need additional equipment, as opposed to MRE, it might be an attractive option for liver fibrosis staging once all technical parameters like the b value are elucidated.

Artist: 12 MINUTES AT THE HOT CLUB MURPHY Title: s/t Format: 7" Label: Messthetics Country: USA Price: $7.00 |
"a limited edition of 457 reissue of a Rosetta Stone rarity from 1982: adventurous, subtly-hued pop art from an all-star line-up of post-Homosexuals / This Heat / Rock in Opposition squat savants.
The full story is more complicated – and exponentially richer (as is the music!), but heres a short version, in the words of Rob Storey, the one constant in 30-plus years of Murphy variations - Federation Murphy, Orchestre Murphy, The Murphy Love Experience, Murphy Patrol, Murphy Working Stiffs, Laboratoires Murphy, etc.: (musicians performing on the EP appear in boldface):
"We had made a start as the Good For Nothings in about 77/78 and played sort of punk rock music with a line-up of Catherine OSullivan, Bing Selfish, Rodrigo Lodwick, Seamus Luttman-Johnson, and Robert Storey. We soon got tired of the straitjacket of the punk sound and started trying other things, fake jazz, more theatrical elements, improvisation and performance deconstruction – which resulted in some extremely antagonistic audience reactions... "After making the first single Fed Up Skank / Slipping Past On The Inside, Bing was a semi-detached member of the Murphies anyway, and went on to make Selfish Works. Chris Gray, Jim Whelton, Ted Barrow (who had all been associated with the Homosexuals), Lepke Buchwalter, David Doyle and Joe Torres (who were Milk from Cheltenham), Janey Haggar (Nancy Sesay), and Mick Hobbs (The Work), amongst others, became part of the pool of people who would do gigs, tours or recording sessions. It was a loose arrangement of players by the time we made 12 minutes at the Hot Club Murphy." In the meantime, Robs label Noise Method had at least six cassette releases in addition to the Murphy Federation single [NM1], the Hot Club Murphy 12" [NM6, 1982] and Selfish Works [NM8, though officially on El Frenzy, 1982], and thered also been several junkets to Barcelona that resulted in the Domestic Sampler – UMYU compilation [1981] and Bings Selfish Works (of whom and of which much more anon!). In addition to the Hot Club tracks that Chris Gray recorded at Surrey Sound, others were taped at This Heats legendary Cold Storage studio in Brixton with Pete Bullen. Mick Hobbs left The Work (to be replaced by Jim Welton/Amos) and went on to Officer!; Catherine OSullivan went on to Sally Patience (who were named for a Murphies song)… Anyway, Messthetics and Stewart Andersons [Boyracer+++] Milk and Alcohol label have reissued 12 Minutes at the Hot Club Murphy in its entirety as a 7" EP, limited to 457 numbered copies. The silkscreened sleeve reproduces the original front artwork (admitting there were many variations with different inks and cover stocks, and as the original screens and LetraSetting for the 12" wore out and were patched or replaced "on the fly")… There has never been musician credits until now. YouTube videos are online for Hiding in the Forest and The Encampment showing the originals and representative artwork from the 7" EPs."- Messthetics. |
Artist: DRY RIB Title: Whose Last Trickle Format: CD Label: Messthetics Country: USA Price: $11.00 |
"D.I.Y. with a guitar-genius/nonsense poet only begins to explain Dry Rib and the projects that followed, but they were one of a tiny handful of D.I.Y./post-punk-era groups whod probably have sounded the same whether Punk had happened or not. And things only got cooler, odder, and more idiosyncratic as Rob Vaseys audio insurgency progressed. Ed Ball of O Level (and later the Times and Teenage Film Stars) saw Dry Rib first in late 1978 and promptly signed them to his new Clockwork label. He writes, Dry Rib were a late 70s three piece group of some indefinable power - not Powerful in the obvious sense, as in everyone slugging out the same riff... More the power of musical and lyrical imagination ... Rob Vaseys guitar style of blurred chord stylings coupled with continuous tremolo arm preempted My Bloody Valentine (or anyone else) by the best part of a decade. [He] wasnt like Eric Clapton or Paul Weller in way/shape/form ... Which could only be a good thing because, he superseded these fellows for sheer guitar innovation and songscapes that neither could even conceive of. Rob was ably supported by two equally intelligent musicians ? Andrew Goodwin (one of the best two drummers Ive ever played with - and that includes the so-called shit-hot session guys) and Mike Mullholland (who could make a Fender Precision sound like Entwistle, Matlock or a distressed horsefly!) Dry Ribs EP received heavy airplay from John Peel, who featured all three tracks: Quail Seed, Cruelty of the Victim and their epic Alaska (the latter and a demo of Quail Seed appear on Messthetics #102) and briskly sold through a thousand-odd copies at the beginning of D.I.Y.s golden age. They made several further trips to the studio, with no loss of intensity or inventiveness. Robs career next took a more fluid and improvisational turn in a series of collaborations with various members of the Times extended family, mostly under the flag of as, hem syrup (the name taken from a nonsense prose piece of Robs) and the lyrics grew even more fanciful. As with Dry Rib, theres no mistaking any of the material for anyone elses. Theres much more of Ed Balls account in his liner notes (including diary entries from the time) along with every surviving Dry Rib photo, lyrics, the usual daunting ephemera, and 20 songs and 75 minutes of music on the CD." - Messthetics |
Artist: GODS GIFT Title: Pathology: Manchester 1979-84 Format: CD Label: Messthetics Country: USA Price: $11.00 |
"From 1979 to 1984 other bands on the Manchester scene played larger roles, but sooner or later almost everyone who was there mentions Gods Gift -- in tones of awe or amazement. Heres where the rest of the world finds out what all the racket was about. The early Manchester scene was anchored by The Fall, Joy Division, a few straightahead punks, and the more idiosyncratic denizens of the Manchester Musicians Collective. And Gods Gift out-did them all -- in diffidence, darkness, pure feral energy and gleeful musical anarchy. Their successes were epic, but their failures, too, left indelible impressions. Guitarist Steve Murphy: If things were going wrong, wed make them go more wrong... Singer Steven Edwards once shouted out to a baffled London crowd, Wotcha dancing for? -- its tuneless, you pillock! This was no pose. As much as can be said of any band in rock history, Gods Gift were the product of their day jobs: Murphy, Edwards, and at least five others who played in GG all worked inside at Prestwich Asylum -- then the largest psychiatric hospital in the U.K. The hospitals grayness, hopelessness, and constant menace permeated not just GGs tunes and lyrics, but their very stage-presence -- Edwards in work-clothes, and Murphy playing (always!) with his back turned to some of the U.K.s least cuddly audiences. GG recorded a fight onstage and used it in place of lyrics for their self-released first 45, People. Gods Gift found a champion in New Hormones owner, Richard Boon, who booked the band and put out the 12" Gods Gift EP and their landmark Discipline single, but unfortunately, as New Hormones finances crumbled, Boons favorite track, Clamour Club, remained unreleased. Messthetics 17-song CD, Pathology, spans GGs career from 1979 to 1984, drawing material from their records, a Manchester Musicians Collective compilation, several demos and two full-length cassette albums. 12-page booklet with photos and extensive bio; 75 minutes of pounding, insistent, magnificent noise." -Messthetics |
Artist: PERFORMING FERRETS Title: No One Told Us Format: CD Label: Messthetics Country: USA Price: $11.00 |
"Twenty-eight songs from one of D.I.Y.s iconic bands, including most of their astonishingly scarce LP, which music-historian / journo / D.I.Y.- enthusiast Johan Kugelberg described as the most seminal LP to come out of DIY ... Fantastic over enthusiastic juvenilia of an almost supernatural beauty. Whether or not the name was ironic, The Performing Ferrets were very much a performing band -- whose songs clearly grew out of the way they interacted. A curious rhythm, an engaging riff, an arresting lyrical snippet, and frequently a Melodica tumble and writhe, ferretlike, into song / groove / experiments that stood unique on the indie post-punk scene. The Ferrets started out in Maidstone, Kent, in 1978 but they parlayed academic careers in Manchester, Portsmouth, Nottingham and Preston into appearances all over the U.K.. John Peel once lamented that every gig he did there seemed to be a Ferret there clutching a demo tape in its sweaty paw. Theres a touch of The Fall and the TV Personalities, a little garage and Beat, hints of the rhythm-propelled sounds of the Monochromes, Feelies, Beefheart, Gang of 4/Delta 5 or Diagram Brothers, and a dry wit that had more to do with the Ferrets favorite authors and comedians than anyone from the class of 77, but the Ferrets response to D.I.Y. was all their own. In Mandolin (performed on a detuned mandolin that sounds like a toy piano) they complain, The independent market / Is just a bring-and-buy sales ... God help those who do it small scale / Youve got to watch those pennies ... Youre bound to lose pounds / We just cant make money (oh no, oh no!) Their conclusion? Theyd just as soon give their records away for free (though the planned free flexi never happened). No One Told Us collects 28 tracks from 1980-82, although only three rather inscrutable tunes saw wide distribution back in the day on their lone Peel-championed 45. They also released two cassettes (perhaps 200 each) and 300 odd copies of their self-titled LP. After two years in Manchester the Ferrets wound down when two of them ended up in Miaow with Cath Carroll, another took over the editorship of Manchesters legendary City Fun, and a fourth got a doctorate in immunology. The complete sagas in the 12-page booklet, along with photos, artifacts, and almost 80 minutes of the Ferrets finest on the CD." - Messthetics
Artist: V/A Title: Messthetics #103 D.I.Y. 77-81 Midlands I Format: CD Label: Messthetics Country: USA Price: $12.50 |
"D.I.Y. and (very) indie postpunk from the Midlands, 77-81. The Messthetics #100-series hits the metal-weary Midlands, where it encounters a sparse but energetic rabble of (mostly) teens - happily raising their own musical racket, completely outside the mainstream music business. Faster, louder, and less arty than their D.I.Y. counterparts elsewhere in the U.K. Messthetics #103 collects rare tracks from the Versatile Newts [pre-Felt], Swell Maps, Prefects [pre-Nightingales], the Accused, Profile, Hardware [pre-Pigbag], Famous Explorers, School Meals, The Shapes, the Buzz, Domestic Bliss, Cracked Actors, Lester and the Brew, Human Cabbages, 021, and Cult Figures. Also selections from the first releases from Digital Dinosaurs, Spizzoil, Cravats, and Dangerous Girls. 22 songs on the CD plus four bonus MP3 tracks. Lavishly illustrated and documented 24-page booklet, with histories, photos and ephemera." - Messthetics
Artist: V/A Title: Messthetics #105 D.I.Y. 77-81 Scotland I Format: CD Label: Messthetics Country: USA Price: $12.50 |
"D.I.Y. and (very) indie post-punk from Scotland, 77-81. Messthetics first Scottish installment focuses on a brief, intense scene of ardently independent bands who got started rubbing shoulders with 1977 punk then paid no attention at all to London after that. (London returned the favor.) The sound was based on guitars of all sorts, ingeniously skewed melodies and unashamed local accents. Naturally, it all fell apart as soon as The Sound of Young Scotland became a marketable commodity, but they left behind a rich cache of lost alternative hits. Plenty of traditional D.I.Y., too... 24 songs on the CD plus nine bonus MP3 tracks. 90 minutes of music. 24-page booklet, lovingly documented with histories & photos galore. Messthetics #105 features rarities by Fire Engines, Scrotum Poles, 35mm Dreams, The Exile, Commercials, Fakes, Metropak, Tony Pilley, Visitors, Article 58, Radio Ghosts, Rapid Dance, Strutz, Vertical Smiles, Restricted Code, Brills, Rhythm Method, Hes Dead Jim, Friction and Paul Reekie. Unreleased first recordings by Dirty Reds [who became the Fire Engines], 35mm Dreams, Jazzateers, International Spys [pre-Radio Ghosts, Wee Cherubs, Bachelor Pad] and Edinburghs legendary Ettes. Plus other never-before-released material from the Scrotum Poles, Commercials, Tony Pilley, Article 58, Radio Ghosts, Vertical Smiles, and Restricted Code..." -Messthetics.
Artist: V/A Title: Messthetics #106 The Manchester Musicians Collective Format: CD Label: Messthetics Country: USA Price: $13.00 |
"...1977-1982. Messthetics first visit to Manchester surveys the most successful and innovative of Britains post-punk-era musicians collectives. The MMCs most famous spawn were obviously The Fall (who first played at an MMC meeting) and Joy Division (who loaned their P.A.), but the MMCs emphasis on public performance and its egalitarian ethic of shared gear, expertise, and, frequently, band-members, affected and inspired future stars and faintest sparks alike to create an unparalleled range of truly alternative sounds. Twenty-one songs on the CD plus five bonus MP3 tracks. 80+ minutes of music. 24-page booklet, extensively documented with histories, photos and artifacts. Messthetics #106 features songs by the Mud Hutters, Gods Gift, Dislocation Dance, Elti-Fits, Diagram Brothers, The Liggers, The Passage, Bee Vamp, Spherical Objects, Grow-Up, Contact, Slight Seconds, Armed Force, the Manchester Mekon, The Spurtz, and never-released tracks by The Elite, The Hamsters, Manchester Mekon, Bee Vamp, and Property Of (Messthetics fans will also note an unusual concentration of women-in-charge, unorthodox effects, provocative lyrics, wildly varied electronics and general non-punk stylings)." -Messthetics |
Artist: V/A Title: Messthetics #107: D.I.Y. 78-81 London III Format: CD Label: Messthetics Country: USA Price: $13.00 |
"Messthetics returns to London - mostly to a handful of Tube-stops along the Central and Northern Lines. #107 also includes a special 7-band, 6-page feature on the legendary Dining Out label. Rough-edged new wave wonders, scrappy D.I.Y.-punk, ear-boggling home experiments - and the usual quota of accidental pop from fifth-form teens, art-school grads and committed hippies. Some recorded in actual studios, others on stand-alone cassette-decks placed just so on the squat- or church-hall floor. With ex-members of Spitfire Boys, Tax Exiles and Flying Lizards; others went on to Weekend, Alien Sex Fiend, A Certain Ratio, 400 Blows, Alabama 3, Celestial, Afro Celt Sound System, Fraff, Late Night Poker, and ..and the Native Hipsters. Plus 5 bands that got their start at Raynes Park High School for Boys, Morden. Messthetics #107 features obscure vinyl sides from Disco Zombies, Demon Preacher, Jelly Babies, Six Minute War, Stepping Talk, Occult Chemistry, The Patterns, 49 Americans, Avocados, Methodishca Tune, Jangletties, Stolen Power, Flags, The Steppes, The Insex, The Milkmen, Design for Living, Twilight Zoners, and Club Tango. Unreleased material from Disco Zombies, Buddy Hernia & the Rickets, Twilight Zoners, Milkmen, and the White Brothers. 23 songs on the CD plus 7 bonus MP3 tracks: 90+ minutes of music. 24-page booklet, extensively documented with histories, photos and artifacts." -Messthetics |
Artist: V/A Title: Messthetics #108: South Coast D.I.Y. 77-81 Format: CD Label: Messthetics Country: USA Price: $13.00 |
"D.I.Y. and (very) indie postpunk from the South Coast 1977-81 (vol. 1: Bournemouth-to-Brighton). Throughout the age of Punk and postpunk the English music press, the major labels, and the established indies ignored the South Coast with surprising thoroughness. Their neglect blurred lines between potential chart acts, Rough Trade prospects, and deliberate D.I.Y., so that the South Coast scenes (while still insular) remained highly varied, while D.I.Y. became less a choice than a necessity. Except for the Mods, hardly anyone put out records on their own, so instead the best documents of South Coast postpunk were a handful of excellent local compilations and a raft of barely-circulated tapes -- that account for a majority of the tracks here. Messthetics purists may note with alarm that almost every band on #108 had a proper drum-kit (sacrilege!) and also performed regularly in public. Still, there are Messthetics sounds of all species on #108 -- and its our most generous selection yet! 24 songs on the CD plus 10 bonus MP3s and a video: 110 minutes of music; 28-page booklet, extensively documented with histories, photos and artifacts." -Messthetics |
Artist: V/A Title: Messthetics Greatest HISS: Classics Of U.K... Format: CD Label: Messthetics Country: USA Price: $13.00 |
"...Cassette Culture D.I.Y.: 1979-1982 (Volume 1). An introduction to the D.I.Y. cassette scene 1979-84. The U.K.s original cassette-scene hosted some of the most inept shambling in the history of recorded music, but there was no shortage of musical genius, either (be that accidental or otherwise). From endless bedrooms filled with home-made gadgets, Woolworths guitars, Casios and soldering fumes, came sounds both stunningly simple and sophisticated -- and vastly more varied than anything on vinyl. These artists seldom made more than 100 copies of their cassettes and typically circulated them for free, with untold thousands of tapes changing hands through the Royal Post. Messthetics new series samples the more, er, musical sides of the scene (lots of cool electronics, but no ambient or industrial -- and everythings under 5 minutes!): Here is D.I.Y. at its most liberated. Twenty-five tracks on the CD plus five bonus MP3s. 90+ minutes of music. 24-page booklet, crammed with histories, photos, artifacts and an essay from Mick Sinclair, who wrote the original Cassette Pets column for Sounds. Messthetics Greatest Hiss features the superstars of cassette culture and plenty of others: The Jelly Babies, Danny & the Dressmakers, Storm Bugs, Colin Potter, Event Group, The Get, Instant Automatons, Missing Persons, Gravity Craze, Farming Jim & his Hepcat Groovstas, 391, The Chromosomes, Mike Jones, The Living Dead no. 5, Digital Dinosaurs, The Twizlers, Aconite, Casual Labourers (Bendle and other DIY heavies), Midnight Circus, Milkshake Melon, Funhouse, Cultural Amnesia, Stripey Zebras, Chimp Eats Bananas (pre-Chumbawamba!) and Dean Johnson." -Messthetics

The 2014 Critics' Choice Television Awards: Best Dressed!
On Thursday evening (June 19) the Beverly Hills Hilton was overflowing with finery as the 2014 Critics' Choice Television Awards took over the scene, and the fashion game was nothing short of stellar.
"The Americans" actress Keri Russell was breathtaking in a J. Mendel dress with jewelry by Jennifer Fisher while Michelle Monaghan opted for an Antonio Barardi pantsuit with heels from Christian Louboutin and a Ferragamo bag.
Furthermore, Diane Kruger was as stunning as ever in a delicious dress from Elie Saab and Tatiana Maslany showed up in a fitted peplum Cushnie et Ochs gown with bright red pumps and an L.K. Bennett clutch.
And the always-breathtaking Emmy Rossum dyed her Stuart Weitzman heels to match her Monique Lhuillier dress, topped off with Sutra earrings.
