I haven't seen them; is it the actual recordings or a sound-alike? I've gotten too jaded to worry about the purity of my favorite artists work. If they don't have a problem, why should I? It doesn't change how the music originally impacted me - that first impact is what counts. The commericials aren't around forever, and given the state of radio, the chance to have someone hear a song, and then perhaps get turned onto the artist, is a more or less acceptable trade-off. I prefer the original recordings not be used, but I don't have a say, do I? Hell, in the UK, having a song in a commercial is sometimes a surefire way to get a song back into the charts! As far as Jerry goes, I'm sure Bryan is taking some subconscious pleasure in her dilemma. I NEVER found her attractive to begin with. I liken her to the character in the Eurythmics song, BEETHOVEN: "I was dreaming like a texas girl - a girl who feels she has the right to everything...." She seems to be an opportunist. I feel bad for the kids, but really couldn't give a toss about her. I hope she doesn't get a dime, because she had nothing to do with Mick's ability to make a fortune. I'm certain Mick will ensure the children are looked after. That's who I care about, the kids. She'll latch onto some other rich guy, I'm sure. Lastly, why hasn't virgin put out a collection of the 12" remixes? If they are on the box set, I don't have it, and am not about to pay big bucks for the few b-sides (which aren't that great to begin with) they do have on it. They need to remaster the catalog - listen to the remixes of Let's Stick and Price Of Love (from the Ultimate Collection era) and you'll understand what I mean - it's like a veil of hiss has been lifted, and the songs really sparkle. Remaster with bonus tracks... Perhaps if the reunion comes off, they'll invest in it... END OF RANT.

Will Jerry return to Ferry? Will the Wilde-&-Beautiful, Bonin' Down Dawne come...up for air? Will Avalonia ever recognize Velveeta Whinecellar as the vacuous, Heavy-On-the-Bowie, non-Roxy fraud it really is? Will Heather Marie- Whatever get a job in that rarified, high-stakes field of Web Programmer? (And Heather, we've come to the brink, but I never ONCE said I'd leave you.) How will Martin finish that videotape without Vapor's stash (including the lowest-generation-around copy of Stockholm '76)? Will Jim 'Like A Rock' Spellman get over his diarrhea long enough to enjoy another Double Whopper? Why is Arnie wearing that Gap dress and showing his didgeridoo to Rolf Harris? Does Ed 'Help Me, I'm A Cad' McMatan get a cut of those Blockbuster commercials? Why do you never see Mick Jagger and Lancelot Link, Secret Chimp in the same place? And what of Shemp, that most quizzical Stooge? And little baby Lourdes? To quote the aformentioned Heather, "None of these questions are certain." But most importantly, what of Eddie Jobson? Yes--Eddie Jobson. Awhile ago some of you concerned Avalonians pointed out the terrible treatment Mr Jobson received in that band we call Roxy. Working piecemeal, paid for his time, and Never A Formal Member. Was he actually allowed take a cab, whilst the rest of the ensemble rode in a limo? A soldier without a fortune indeed. As I sit in my Morgan overseeing my delightful crew of Mexicans executing Lucy's latest landscape project, one image alone gnaws at me: Baby-faced Eddie, all alone in the world, in some unheated 'flat' huddled over a spoiling meat pie, spilling the tears of a clown on a fiberglass fiddle. Well, as the accounting firm of Price-Waterhouse tabulates the results of our last contest (hint: My Only Love Alegna set a High Standard with the very first entry) I dedicate our new contest to Mr Jobson: The Avalonia Limerick Contest. Yes, come up limerick, however stupid, however crass--the only requirement is that Eddie Jobson's name be stuck somewhere inside the text.

Date: Thu, 21 Jan 1999 12:25:33 PST From: "gareth mc ginley" Subject: [AVALON] advertisements So another Ferry song appears on an advertisement then. That's four in the last year: Rover: Virginia Plain Burger King: LetsStick Together Some advertisement shown in Ireland: Dance Away (type of accoustic version) Blockbuster video: THe In Crowd He must be really hard up for money. I suppose it was bound to happen some time but doesn't it just make you cringe? If he really wanted he could make good money out of a tour or something. Cringe? No not at all. Hard up for money? I don't know. I have yet to hear the other commercials besides the Blockbuster one. I do like like that his music is getting SOME sort of recognition at least here in America. I was pleasenttly suprised to hear the Blockbuster Commercial. The first thing I thought was It was about time and how clever of who over thought up the commercial. I applaud them for there great taste. Hopefully people will heat it and wonder who the artist is that is singing it. Again this applies to America not Europe, where MOST people, outside of some smart critics, a few DJ's and of course our members on Avalon, only know of Roxy via Love is the Drug-some "obscure" disco era record. I can't wait to hear more commercials with Bryan/Roxy. Hey if he needs the money and it goes to helping him getting that next release out for us hungry fans, then more power to him.

I'm sure that's just what he would have wanted, right? I agree, but just for the record Yoko, nor Paul had nothing to do with that happening. They could not stop it becauuse a certain pedophile Micheal " Leave me Alone" Jackson, owns the publishing rights to the Lennon/McCartney catalog. He sold the rights to Reebock who then then did the dirty deed. I'm sure John was looking down in utter disgust as much as all Beatle fans recoiled in horror. I for one did not buy Reebok after that: for one thing they have never fit my feet. Jas Nike- like Mike! - -------------------- To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ End of avalon-digest V4 #27 *************************** ======================================================================== For further info, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: info avalon-digest
