I know this might sound rather strange, but when I went here to the local laundromat...there they were, Echo and the Bunnymen in all their splendid regalia.  
 
 Even stranger, the other day I was changing the oil in my Kia...I was in the garage and I was laying on the floor.  There's a small crack in the cement of the garage floor, just to the left.   And guess who was in the crack?   Echo & The Bunnymen.  Somehow they had miniaturized themselves and they had managed to crawl down into the crack.
 
 I was quite startled by this, so I ran into the apartment for a bottle of Old Crow that I keep under the sink for just such emergencies.  When I opened the door to beneath the sink...there was Echo & The Bunnymen, slightly enlarged this time to about the size of mice...and they were scuttling along the wainscotting.
 
 So, as you can tell from my poast, I'm literally seeing Echo & The Bunnymen everywhere.

Will  Sergeant's List of Music You Should Hear
 
 On the occasion of their 10th studio release, 'Siberia', Echo and the Bunnymen's Will Sergeant sent us his recommended list of albums. Given that Will, his guitar, and his band(s) have inspired thousands (and appeared on countless complations and mix tapes!) since 1978, we think it is great to read his thoughts on Music You Should Hear.
 
 'Nuggets: Original Artyfacts from the First Psychedelic Era, 1965-1968'
 This box set is essential for the 21st century garage punk.
 
 'Nuggets II: Original Artyfacts from the British Empire and Beyond'
 More psychedelic nonsense with a British/Euro flavour.
 
 '666', Aphrodite's Child
 This forgotten gem is an acid-soaked beauty. The Cd is a trip right there painted on the plastic by the laser of love.
 
 'In the Land of Grey & Pink', Caravan
 I love this folk/prog/psych album for the posh vocals and of course the slow wha-wha Farfisa organ.
 
 'Close to the Edge', Yes
 I know what you're thinking, "Will's lost it." Give it a whirl--you may just like it.
 
 'The Piper at the Gates of Dawn', Pink Floyd
 Syd in full effect, you don't get a more trippy album than this.
 
 'Foxtrot', Genesis
 Peter Gabriel in a flower mask prancing around like a big jessie, bloody marvellous.
 
 'Meddle', Pink Floyd
 You can run but you can't hide, 'Dark Side of the Moon''s younger and more interesting brother.
 
 'Ambient 1: Music for Airports', Brian Eno
 After all that prog you will need a sit-down with a cup of tea. Stick this on and your cares will fall like autumn leaves.
 
 'Neu!', Neu!
 German drone prog.
 
 Recipe:
 · Take one chord, add reverse guitar and Mo Tucker-flavoured drums
 · Spread on CD thickly
 · Grill for 10 min.
 
 YUMMY
 
 'Trans-Europe Express', Kraftwerk
 More Germanic sounds electro pioneers--tighter than a gnat's chuff.
 
 'Not Available', the Residents
 Not released till the Residents had forgot they had made it or something like that. Easter Island is my land I'm coming home to you. Dreamy weird and sad.
