Whoa! That happy little ditty is definitely a keeper. I'm going
searching down the record shops in Soho tomorrow.
She has that Scandinavian thing of not knowing when an "s" should
sound like a "z". The Abba girls did it too. Their ignorance of the
finer nuances of spoken English is quite disgraceful ;-)

Yeah terrible ain't it - like Bjork's soft 'g's sounding like 'j's...!! :-)
OK, by way of pushing the 'Pipex Webspace Barrier', here (with a bit of
luck) are a couple more from another Nordic Siren - Virna Lindt's 'Shiver':

Off the vinyl this time and not quite as 'modern' as she would have us
believe - 1984 - so I bet she's an old dear now.....
(Re-issued though, I believe...)

Mmmmm no, I don't think I will be chasing down Virna, just a bit too
avant-garde for me.

I envisage as not much more than an Alps pot in a little box with phono
sockets IN and OUT, wired accordingly.
Too simple? Am I missing summat here? (Like everything you buy seems to have
a tiny little resistor stuck in it for some reason!)
Using a microphone level input instead of line level?

Avante-Garde - that old biddy??
See:
http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip...oldj.htm#LINDT
and check out Strawberry Switchblade! (English version, sadly not ready
yet - so we can only guess....!! :-)
OK, so you'll not be wanting to hear Lena Willemark and Ale Moller (the
'Bouzouki Man From Malmo') on "Agram"
http://www.mybestlife.com/music/Willemark.htm
(Let's push this sodding Pipex envelope a bit with another track - here's a
*very* nice little taster from Lena Willemark:
http://www.apah69.dsl.pipex.com/keit...t%20Stomar.mp3 )
Or, these albums "Coming Soon" :-
Howzabout summat litesome (in a "pre-Wagnerian Rhinegold curse" sorta
way..... :-) - "Edda - Myths From Medieval Iceland" by Sequentia then...???
http://www.sequentia.org/press.html
If not, maybe the "Gallaecia Fvlget" by Milladoiro will be more to your
taste? (Reputedly *very big* on bits of inflated goat and penny
whistles....)
http://www.milladoiro.com/Homep.htm
(Watch this space!! :-)

Bugger, forgot the link to this Milladoiro sample which, as they appear
neither Japanese nor Scandinavian (my current 'Flavours Of The Month'), I
can't quite see why I'm getting them....??
http://www.apah69.dsl.pipex.com/keit.../CANTOCEGO.mp3
My WMP says 'Pista' - which is a bit harsh I reckon! They may have had a
couple just to get the 'creative juices' flowing, but 'Pista'?? - (Obviously
haven't heard The Pogues, then....!!!)
Did someone mention Japanese Girls?
OK, perfect excuse to upload this and max out my webspace:
http://www.apah69.dsl.pipex.com/keit...ese%20Girl.mp3
Enjoy!
(OK, time for a bacon sangie and a spot of DVD now! :-)

More likely an EAR tube preamp that develops rather more than the
average line-level voltage, I'd say! I think we've been here before...

It becomes a bit of a joke when you can't follow your own advice. Reminds me
