In modern student parlance, our hero achieved a "Desmond" (Desmond TuTu, Geddit?) Incidentally, at the unearthly hour of 2.50 AM on Tuesday night, during a bout of insomnia, I stumbled upon an ancient QED documentary about Richard Hamilton, who was BF's lecturer at University and is seen as his Arts Svengali, (He was quoted as saying that BF was "his greatest creation") Although there was no direct BF reference in the programme, it was stated that Hamilton's greatest work was a collage depicting life in the Fifties. This was displayed at an exhibition at the ICA in London entitled, interestingly "This Is Tomorrow" Mmm.. Hamilton was asked by the programme to update his collage using modern technology to fit the Nineties. It seemed that Hamilton had embraced the available technology to use as a conduit for his ideas,and taught himself to program, not unimpressive for a man in his seventies. Finally, for UK subscribers, can I recommend a little gem of a program, foolishly hidden away at 11.15 PM by the BBC, called "Songwriter's Circle" The basic premise of the series is to take three noted song writers, and ask them to talk about their methods and perform their better known songs in an acoustic set. The programs so far have been superb. Week One had Neil Finn of Crowded House, Roddy Frame of Aztec Camera and age old Tin Pan Alleyist Graham Goulden of Yardbirds and 10CC fame. The second program had the ever impressive Eno collaborator and avant-garde superman John Cale, who gave a storming performance of Fear is a Man's Best Friend at the piano. Add to this Chrissie Hynde who told some nice stories between the hits and the piano and vocal "stylings" of Leonard Cohen's bastard son Nick Cave and it made for a neat show. Tonight's offering is the nice mixture of song craftsman Jimmy Webb, Chip Taylor and one of my boyhood heroes, King of Pub Rock and son-in-law of Johnny Cash, Nick Lowe who I saw way back in 1980 with pub rock supergroup Rockpile. Can't wait!

Has anyone heard this one? The Chicago Sun-Times today had a feature where Readers selected their all-time worst covers one writer wrote in with this one and I certainly don't believe the reason here but here is what was written: ..the most blatantly horrible ones (and he goes on to mention a couple but then rips into) Roxy Music "Jealous Guy". I can't beleive people complain that Nike ripped off John Lennon but didn't realize that Roxy Music stole not only the song from Lennon but did it at a vulnerable time shortly after his death, using it to describe his assasin!" DUH! From what I remember hearing it was a tribute to Lennon and Bryan was a fan of his. I don't know where this guy came up with this reasoning? Obviously the poor sap is not a Roxy fan nor one who knows any facts.
