Description

This article is from the Gaffa - Love-Hounds - Kate Bush FAQ, by Ulrich Grepel uli@zoodle.robin.de with numerous contributions by others.

2.1. Who is Happy Rhodes? (Gaffa - Love-Hounds - Kate Bush)

Love-Hounds was founded with the idea of being a newsgroup about
"Progressive Artists with emphasis on Kate Bush", so discussions
about other "progressive artists" are generally encouraged. However,
occasionally the talk about a different artist grows to a point where
it is appropriate to form a separate group. This is what happened
with Happy Rhodes (this is really her name), whose song "Feed The Fire"
(from Warpaint) was the most requested song on WXPN, a Philadelphia
radio station. Happy Rhodes discussion now takes place on an ever-
growing mailing list founded by Jessica Koeppel called Ecto. If you want
to subscribe to this list, whose broad range of discussion now includes
many other female artists (including Kate Bush), send a request to
the Ecto organisation via:

ecto-request@ecto.org

or

ecto-digest-request@ecto.org

with a line in the message body

subscribe ecto

or

subscribe ecto you@a.different.address

To post a message send it to

ecto@ecto.org

A comprehensive FAQ about Ecto can be found via ftp (see section 6
for details on ftp) on ftp://ftp.ecto.org . The Ecto archives, a lot of
pictures, interviews etc. can also be found there.

Now there's also the usenet newsgroup alt.music.ecto, but unfortunately
it still doesn't get wide distribution. Bug your system administrators
to carry it! The mailing list and the newsgroup are not connected like
Love-Hounds and rec.music.gaffa, they're separate entities.

Also available is the IRC channel #ecto where at most times you can find
some Ectophiles and #Ectophiles.
