Go figure. Gene I agree, I get discouraged when I see BF/RM have a new video collection (a few years old) and when I ask for it in Tower or Strawberries they think I'm crazy. It's only on laser Disc. I don't have nor can I afford one. Then I am told I have to find someone in Japan to get it for me. What the heck? ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 21 Apr 1998 20:10:52 -0700 From: Rex Estorffe Subject: Re: [AVALON] Ferry cited in Rolling Stone Decophile wrote: > > >ASchulberg wrote: > >> > >> This just in... > >> > >> In the newest Rolling Stone there's a joint review of the Stevie Nicks > boxed > >> set and a tribute album to Fleetwood Mac's "Rumours".

Maybe point me to a web page or something - I've got a LD player, I'd love to try to get the disc. I've got a couple of BF videos on VHS already.

RM have only been passed over one time when it comes to induction. tThey only became eligible in 1997. Many musical entities of the fifties & sixties are still waiting to be inducted. When the inductees give their acceptance speeches (or better yet, don't even show up!) they're are quite often miffed that it took SO LONG for them to be inducted. - --Theresa ------------------------------ End of avalon-digest V3 #94 *************************** ======================================================================== Please send any questions or comments about the list to avalon-digest-owner@smoe.org
