Sheila Wood (John Wood's wife): "If you're so unhappy Nick, why haven't you killed yourself?"

Nick: "It's too cowardly, and besides, I don't have the courage"

(at the end of the thread mentioned in the previous post)

Two links:

• Hazey Jane Talks to The Pinefox, a long ILM thread from April I missed out on. The Pinefox starts asking an obvious question on the sequencing of the two songs called Hazey Jane II and I on Bryter Later and the discussion slowly moves towards more excitng things.
• Stranger to the world, an article by Peter Paphides in the Observer which I haven't read yet. Apparently (not really surprising) it is extremely sad.

The Mystical Beast has Opal's Fell from the Sun online. Get it fast before it's gone. I imagine the effect the slighty noisy guitar sound has on me similar to the one from eating magic mushrooms. There is a warm dizziness in the guitar solo I absolutely adore. Kendra Smith's singing is rather monotonous, a little in the tradition of the unemotional sprechgesang of Nico but it works. I think I wrote about Opal and this track before but I can't be arsed to look for the post.

P.S. Here it is.
