|
||
Please send me <clare@aero.org> any additional information you
|
||
have about these or other releases featuring Concrete Blonde or
|
||
any of its members.
|
||
|
||
Special thanks to: (in alphabetical order)

NOTE: This discography format is based on the They Might Be Giants discography

maintained by John Relph <relph@presto.ig.com>
|
||
|
||
NOTES:
|
||
Concrete Blonde used to be known as the Dreamers (on The
|
||
D.I.Y. Album), and Dream 6 before they got the name "Concrete
|
||
Blonde" which was given to them by Michael Stipe.
|
||
|
||
Johnette Napolitano used to be a member of the Ringling
|
||
Sisters, and wrote the song "Roses Grow" originally for them.
|
||
|
||
"Les Coeurs Jumeaux" translates to "Twin Hearts"; one can
|
||
wonder what the rest of the song translates to...
|
||
|
||
There is supposed to be a video to be released entitled
|
||
"Mid-Life Crisis" which is rumored to be a home-video
|
||
documentary shot by Johnette herself, and mixed in with other
|
||
footage. Latest information has the release date listed as
|
||
"TBA". Originally it was to be released simultaneously with
|
||
WALKING IN LONDON.
|
||
|
||
There is an e-mailing list for discussion of Concrete Blonde,
|
||
Johnette Napolitano, and related groups and/or people. The
|
||
address is <concrete-blonde@piggy.ucsb.edu>. If you would like
|
||
to join, send your request to
|
||
<concrete-blonde-request@piggy.ucsb.edu>. PLEASE remember that
|
||
the `concrete-blonde' address forwards to the entire list; for
|
||
administrative correspondence, send only to the `-request'
|
||
address.
|
||
|
||
There is a Concrete Blonde fan club, $10 fee, but it has not
|
||
done anything as of yet.
|
||
|
||
Information with question marks is not known/verified, if you
|
||
have further information, please let me know. There are
|
||
probably several more Promo singles, for example.
