I really first noted remastering when Sony SBM'd the Eno Collection, making it far better than any of the previous cd issues. Also the Analogue Productions, Telarc and JVC XRCD are outstanding remasters. Maybe give then a try.

MONTREUX JAZZ FESTIVAL Maybe it's the release of pent-up frustration at all those jokes about cuckoo clocks and overwhelming efficiency, but Montreux certainly puts Switzerland on the festival map each year with this bash. The artists lined up for your delectation include Bryan Ferry, Marianne Faithfull, REM, BB King, Al Green, James Taylor, Elvis Costello, Van Morrison, Des'ree (above) and Herbie Hancock, plus the Egg, Nightmares on Wax, and many more. You'll also be able to enjoy jam sessions in the Jazz Cafe, music boats and a music train.

A "lifestyle" programe, wherein members of the public relate Driving stories. I was press-ganged to do an appearance, quoting my poetry as I cruised beside the Thames late one night, reminiscing about lost love and so forth. My one stipulation, apart from choosing my favourite TV Director to lovingly portray me, was that all incidental music should be by the Maestro. We wound up using "Taxi" and "Because You're Mine" throughout and it certainly looks and sounds good. Ah well, just doing my bit for the old royalties.

Hello everyone. I am sorry if I didn't answer messages sent to me off the list, for I had seen some before I lost my e-mails last friday - thanks to Mr. Gates. I guess I shall introduce myself properly. First thing is that my name is Konstantin. Jeffry - is no James Bond game, only I found it extremely difficult for english and german-speaking people to handle with unbearably long russian names, so I thought of something short. You can call me the way you like. I am a Ph.D. (physics) student in Germany and, of course, Bryan Ferry fan. As for that, well I can still remember watching the video "Don't stop the dance" in 87 in late night show on russian TV. That was a real something by the time, for to be a Bryan Ferry (or anybody else) fan in Russia was no good thing, mind you. If only you weren't a son of some big shot in Moscow, it was almost not possible to get any cd's and lp's. You could only hope to get some records through a friend of a friend of a friend...etc, and don't ask about the quality. BTW, I read on some web-site I can't remember, that Bryan was (is) also working on 4CD set with b-sides, rarities etc. Is that only a rumour? All the best.

The format (cd) itself really pales in comparison to vinyl, dvd and the 20 bit remasters. The HDCD format is very interesting to anyone with the decoding chip in their cd player, the City of Angels sound track is a very good example, compare the Goo Goo Dolls cut off that to the non HDCD album version.

Devoto also had a solo career but it seems very hard to trace, I've only had the chance to hear one song, "The Rainy Season" and really liked so I guess I'll have to due some digging.

The album was probably released in 1979, the film by the way was about, 'The seemingly ever-active love life of a female biker," and starred, Dominique Laffin,Caroline Cartier, Josaine Balasko and Roger Mormont.
