(While I'm here, I'd just like to say what an absolute pleasure it is to be able to read through Avalon. Although I very rarely post, I'm constantly amazed by the wit, charm and intelligence (and on-topic too!) displayed by every single one of you who posts. I can barely believe it's a mailing list... Thank you all.)

Anyway, what about: "Life around the corner" "Stronger through the years" "Two little boys" - or maybe not, wasn't that a Rolf Harris ditty? "Miscellaneous Roxy Music and Bryan Ferry Clips, Volume 1" - OK, so this wasn't a lyric, but it REALLY conveys the essence of the video.... Robert As we draw closer to actually producing the TV compilation - I shall be in the studio over the next two weeks - I wonder if we can come up with a better title than Avalonia. It does reflect our list whilst acknowledging a universally popular track / album. However when I see those wonderfully titled websites "Madness In My Soul" and "Heart Still Beating" I wonder if we can't extract a lyric that would somehow capture the essence of RM/BF culture. I have a few ideas.. "The Zig-Zag Shadows That Promise Much" "Rhodadendron, is a nice flower" "Oh how the ghost of you clings : TV memories of Roxy Music and Bryan Ferry." "A Perfumed Sigh" "Midnight Blue Casino Floors." Any offers ? Its time Avalon flexed her creative muscles again... (The final choice will be made by the benign dictatorship of Gareth and me. I think a voting style system wouldn't work.) - -------------------- To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon - -------------------- To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 18 Mar 1999 21:12:50 +0100 From: "Han Snijders en Willy van der Geest" Subject: Re: [AVALON] The TV compilation formerly known as Avalonia Strictly Confidential Han - -------------------- To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 18 Mar 1999 21:59:16 +0100 From: "Han Snijders en Willy van der Geest" Subject: [AVALON] reviews On www.qonline.co.uk/reviews you can fined old reviews of albums by Ferry, Roxy, Mackay etc All the best Han - -------------------- To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 18 Mar 1999 21:48:42 -0000 From: "Richard" Subject: Re: [AVALON] The TV compilation formerly known as Avalonia "Deluxe and delightful" Richard - -------------------- To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 18 Mar 1999 16:21:46 -0600 From: "Will" Subject: Re: [AVALON] Iggy Pop Yeah Iggy's great, I've seen him a bunch of times. I think the best was the Blah Blah Blah tour with the jet black hair and the biker jacket. It was in Chicago, the Ramones opened and Steve Jones was on guitar and the Alien Sex Fiend guy also. It was great. Iggy is one of those guys that I went nuts buying bootleg video of and I must have footage of him dropping his pants during the Brick by Brick tour in five different cities, not that I'm into that sort of thing.

The feature is called "Muchmore with...", a 15 min or 1/2 hr? spotlight that features videos and interviews. Thankfully it is shown 4 times a day: 10am, 4 pm, 8pm and 3am. I am suspicious about the interview portion, because as far as I know Bryan has not been to Toronto since the Mamouna tour, and if he was here recently there was absolutely no mention in the media, (not to mention that I would die of mortification to know that He was here and I missed Him!) - -------------------- To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 19 Mar 1999 01:28:03 -0500 From: "Gregory A.
