 	That's a broad broad church of spacerock there Mr H! Monster 
Magnet and Kyuss I would admit if only because, although Kyuss are all 
about deserts to my ears, `Gardenia' is basically `Time We Left' with the 
riff revved up a bit, complete with strangled guitar break, and `Asteroid' 
is hard to deny. And Monster Magnet have actually used the `Time We Left' 
riff intact and covered `Brainstorm'. OK. But the Flaming Lips? What makes 
them space rather than psychedelia? (Or, in fact, indie. Say rather, what 
makes the Flaming Lips such a pale shadow of the Olivia Tremor Control?) 
Just some discussion points :-) Good to see the word got out once more 
though, yours,
 		Jon
