Blast from the past alaric.neville[at]-remove-googlemail.com - Mr Alaric Neville, Leeds and Northampton 18Jan2010 3:59 AM (57 days 10 hours ago) Hello again Pat, It being Monday morning, possibly my last email was a bit cryptic. I'm so used to people remembering me not for my sparkling repartee or winning personality, but for the unusual name, that I didn't give you clues as to our past associations. In case you address book is full of other Alaric's or memory has dimmed your image of the '80s, I was Richard Formby's chum in those days, hung out with you on a number of occasions, even shared a stage with you one New year at the Rock Garden in Covent Garden, when Richard supported you, Kevin H and David J. Happy Days, Cheerio, drop us a line if you feel the mood take you, Alaric

Soul Happy Hour annette.clement[at]-remove-versanet.de - Annette, Germany 3Nov2008 1:51 PM (1 year 133 days ago) Dear all, in the 80´s I was a big fan of Jazz Butcher. Many years has passed but now - in that moment - i remembered the song "soul happy hour". Does anybody has the possibility to put it to "You Tube", so I can listen to that? Thank´s in advance. Annette

Pat, Pat, Pat.... nigel_wright[at]-remove-verizon.net - Nigel, Los Angeles 24Jul2007 8:40 PM (2 years 235 days ago) Anxiously awaiting your return to LA STOP. Will personally hand out flyers and bring all my friends STOP. Make Haste STOP. Delay unacceptable STOP. When are you coming back?

In Defense of The Jazz Butcher rosemadder27[at]-remove-prodigy.net - Cynthia Rose O'Leary - Texas 8Dec2006 8:54 AM (3 years 99 days ago) Just finished writing these words about you on David J's forum. Maybe they belong here as well: If you never saw The Jazz Butcher Conspiracy play then you may never get it. There was a time when the same kinds of things that are being said in the press about The Decemberists now- (hyper-literate, thinking-man's music,) were being said about The Jazz Butcher. I remember when one could talk to any rabid audiophiles in a social circle and say "Jazz Butcher" and they would swoon and act like a grail had been found. This wasn't just a band, it was a little revolution. Pat Fish made literacy and cleverness seem cool again in the post punk era and he was not apologetic about it! I love The Jazz Butcher!! (indeed I do) Will try to make it to one of those cozy Northampton gigs when I return to your fair country in April 2007. Cheers, Cynthia
