Hi, folks:

The latest Artist Shop newsletter is out and you'll find it in its entirety
at <http://www.artist-shop.com/news.htm>.  Meanwhile, here are some excerpts
for Brain Surgeons and Hawkwind fans.

Coming soon from Cellsum Records  <http://www.artist-shop.com/cellsum>
The Brain Surgeons and Friends/To Helen with Love!
Cellsum Records is especially proud to offer To Helen With Love, featuring
the first studio reunion of Buck Dharma, Albert and Joe Bouchard in two
decades. Contributors include The Brain Surgeons, Tish and Snooky (Blondie,
S*c F*cs), Neal Smith and Dennis Dunaway (Alice Cooper), Crispin Cioe
(Rolling Stones, J Geils) whose Uptown Horns shared "Downtown Diva" bills
with Helen, and the Dictators, Wheels' first back-up band. 'Tator "Top Ten"
Kempner chose the album's only cover, an acoustic version of Dylan's "Chimes
of Freedom," which he performed in several versions of her band, one of
which evolved into his next major label outfit, the Del Lords. All profits
from this project will go to animal charities.  Bouchard and Frost, who had
just re-tooled the Brain Surgeons as a power trio following the serious
illness of the band's guitarist, were devastated by Wheels' (née Robbins)
unexpected death January 17, 2000. So were other old colleagues and friends
of Helen's, who managed to set aside long unresolved differences in order to
help bring her songs - some of which have never been previously released -
to life. Most notable among them is the musical core responsible for BÖC's
hits - Bouchard, his former college classmate Donald "Buck Dharma" Roeser,
and brother Joe Bouchard - who had not been in the same room, much less the
same studio, for nearly two decades.  As Sandy Roeser, who, like Wheels,
lived in the band house during the classic Cult era, and who sings "Hero,"
noted, "Helen, wherever she is, must be laughing at the irony that it took
her death to bring all of us together."
