Dear folks,
Many apologies for those of you who have already received our latest E
mail message, but owing to a glitch, this didn't go out to  all our
subscribers.

Greetings to all folk of a Woronzoid nature.
We would like to announce the release, straight off the production line,
of Woronzow's  two latest models.
First, available in a variety of finishes, comes The Bevis Frond's 1999
roadster, "Vavona Burr". Sleek, powerful and packed full of innovative
features, it comes in either a CD version or for the more traditional
listener, a double vinyl touring model. All this for a mere 11 Pounds
for the CD, or 16 Pounds for the double LP. How do we do it? Cheques
made payable to "Woronzow Records" and please add the following for P &
P:
LPs - UK: 2 Pounds, Europe: 3 Pounds, Elsewhere: 4 Pounds.
CD - UK: 1 Pound, Europe: 2 Pounds, Elsewhere: 3 Pounds.
Please send your orders to:
Woronzow Records
75 Melville road
Walthamstow
London E17 6QT
England

Secondly, we have Adrian Shaw's newest vehicle, "Head Cleaner". Ideal
for those of you who want an exhilarating drive with your top down. It's
Shaw mark IV, each successive model becoming more refined and yet losing
none of the excitement of previous machs. He's been helped in the design
of this beast by a crack team of skilled artisans, including Simon
House, Nick Saloman, Aaron Shaw, Ric Gunther and Bari Watts. Probably
the biggest surprise is you can have one of these CDs for a mere 11
Pounds.
Cheques made payable to "A. Shaw" along with the following P & P: UK: 1
Pound, Europe: 2 Pounds, Elsewhere: 3 Pounds.
Please send your orders to:

Lastly,
We would like to announce an expansion of Woronzow Records. We have
plans in the next few months for an outpouring of psychedelia unseen
since the '60's.
We are releasing, amongst others:
Tom Rapp's first new album in 25 years. The former Pearls Before Swine's
main man is currently recording it with Damon and Naomi amongst others
and Shaw and Saloman will be adding their three penneth as well. Truly
an extraordinary affair.
Country Joe and the Frond. Live, recorded at the Queen Elizabeth Hall,
London and His Majesty's Theatre, Aberdeen. If you didn't catch this in
the flesh, this is the next best thing. All Joe's best loved songs
lovingly re-worked with the Frond augmented by boy wonder Aaron Shaw on
keyboards and guitar.
The Green Pajamas newest album, truly a delight. Melodic, beautiful
harmonies, great production. Stunning.
Acid Jam 2. Only 10 years in the coming. Saloman, Gunther and Watts get
back together again along with Shaw, Debbie Saloman and Paul Simmonds of
the Alchemyst's. A mixture of extreme psychedelia and haunting melodies.
Simeon and the Alchemyst's. The Silver Apples meet the west countries
finest purveyors of acid-rock. Ooh Aar!.
The Lucky Bishops. If you caught them at The Garage supporting the Frond
you won't need any encouragement from me to buy this when it comes out.
Terrific harmonies and songs from this diamond 4 piece band from Dorset.
Mick Wills. The guitar virtuoso's latest meisterwork. Look out, he's got
a sitar!

Lastly, if you haven't heard, David Ackles, one of the most original and
talented singer-songwriters of the last 30 years died recently. We had
hoped to release the album he was working on, but this probably won't
happen now. Our thoughts are with his family.
