Re: Details of new 7" single to be released the Fleecegig

[Patrick Brown <pasddybrownchelsea@ya...co.uk>]

Incidentally, just Googled 'China Brilliance Automotive' (unsurprisingly, 
it's 
the name of a Chinese Car Manufacturer!!)....

Here's the link:
www.brillianceauto.com
 
p.s. No mention on their web-site of any forthcoming Aeros' releases on 
vinyl in 
the far-east either!! :-)

Oh dear.
 
I’m all for making a version available for download. FLAC or other 
lossless 
format preferred. Yahboosucks to MP3.

Having read with great interest the various replies to this thread, i must 
say 
that i agree with all of them!!....
 
Why don't they go with an mp3 download version (via web-site) a la iTunes 
@ £5 a 
hit (on or after the release of the 7" vinyl jobbie?).  I'd even offer to 
set it 
up for them (& i'm not a tecchie)...
 
Likewise, new album??...Mystified to say the least (what happened to 'Good 
Luck 
Signs' aka 'When Things Are Good' then? Was it a USA only (vinyl 
double-album) release with gatefold sleeve?
 
I assumed (having heard some new songs played last 2 or 3 times live; 
Angela 
Carter/ 25 Kinds of Love etc.) there was enough material to fill it (In 
fact, i 
recall Gerard & Max telling me 'it's the dogs'!!)...
 
'Anti-Gravity' sounds like a delay tactic to me?
 
Sorry to sound negative (but like the Glasgow man)...I only have a 
'limited life 
span' myself & am now wondering if any new product (in a playable format) 
will 
ever grace my turn-table (aka CD player) again.

Further to Phil's harsh but fair description of the apparent business 
plan. 
I don't think Gerard worries about his fan base moving on but I doubt if  
the 
BAs will be able to establish a new audience (outside of Bristol).

Ah yes, that "forthcoming album" rumour again... Lots of description and 
teasing 
over the last year or two, not very much music (although "25 Kinds of 
Love" 
sounded promising).  I've rather given up hope of ever hearing it: I live 
in 
Glasgow, so I have a very low life expectancy, you understand. The Blue 
Aeroplanes? More like the bleedin' Blue Nile in their early years. 

So, here's the business plan: organise a limited local release of a single 
in a 
format that few people still have access to of an outtake from an album 
that 
isn't even available. Stunning! An entire  generation of potential fans 
will be 
rushing out to buy a record player especially. Granted, album releases get 
delayed for any number of artistic and non-artistic reasons, but... but... 
but... Oh, go on Chris, tell us some good news! 

Goadingly,
Phil

Chris has already mentioned that there will be a *brand new* vinyl-only 
Aeroplanes single available at the Fleece gig.
 
The title is 'China Brilliance Automotive' b/w 'My Good Self' - and here 
are few 
more details from Gerard: 
 
"China Brilliance Automotive was written gazing from a Los Angeles hotel 
room at 
a church that looked like a wedding cake with an 80-foot charity ribbon on 
the 
front. or maybe the side. It's about being all things to one person or one 
thing 
to everybody. Neither is likely to succeed. Musically, it's from the 
sessions 
for the forthcoming 'Anti-Gravity' album, but didn't quite make the 
finished 
record due to its resemblance to the early Who drunkenly trying to imitate 
Santana. Which is great, obviously, but doesn't sound like anything else 
on the 
album, hence its release as a spiffing stand-alone single. 
 
"The b-side is a psycho-traumatic rendition of inner conflict as might 
have been 
filmed in a spy-movie, and was recorded on a Sony Walkman cassette 
recorder. On 
a boat. With Katie Tomlinson (17) playing violin. Then we decided to buy a 
venue 
and became the owners of The Fleece (& Firkin for those with long 
memories) and 
restore it to its former glory. So we are playing a celebratory gig at The 
Fleece on October 2nd at which this single will be made available for the 
first 
time. And if you can find us, we'll sign it." 
 
We'll share the art just as soon as it's finished...See you all on the 2nd!
 
Nat
