> Can anyone tell me about Music for Adverts by the Black Dog?
On Warp... Ken Downie release after Ed and Andy left to be just 
Plaid... IMO, the best Black Dog, but much different than previous 
releases. The release could be one big track, with the exception of 
the first track, which simply doesn't really fit with the others 
(someone made mention that they believed the track might be a 
reference to Ed and Andy, dumb and dumber, explaining why the track 
was so different and didn't fit... no idea if its true, but the track 
just doesn't fit... *anyways*)

After that, its a plunge into a somewhat mystical, ambient journey 
through the mind of Ken D., who obviously takes quite a bit from 
various 'world' sounds... don't consider it 'dance - beat oriented' 
whatsoever... its got depth that previous releases couldn't touch.

Hope thats what you wanted to know... this thing takes me places... 
one of my favorites, easily...
