Cap'n Cloud provides this important 'off-topic' info. that I'm snipping

<snip>

> * Tarquins Seaweed Farm (1989)

Does the name 'Tarquin' have an origin from Monty Python?  The 'election'
sketch, where the 'very silly party' candidate (who's name was something like,
'Tarquin-fim-dim-lim-dim-wim-dim-bus-stop-f'tang-f'tang-ole-biscuit-barrell')
wins out over the 'sensible party' incumbent.  Or is this also taken from
somewhere else??  Just wondering.....it's a very funny sketch, BTW.

Well, if you're going to include these, you should also include the entire
'No-Man' discography.  I just ordered my first 'No-Man' CD (so I can't give you
a review or anything), but my impression is that 'No-Man' is to Porcupine Tree,
as 'Eat Static' is to the 'Ozric Tentacles'.  Other than that, I'm not too sure
what to expect, other than maybe an album's worth of tracks similar to the
first full-length track on Up the Downstair; you know, the one that sounds like
the 'Pet Shop Boys'.  :)
