It usually works for me. The only problem is the hangover! I'll send the shots in due course and deal with them at your leisure. You're doing a sterling job- one that I'm sure is a full time one. Try and grab some R&R for yourself.

(a) 'She Sells' - an ace song (b) 'Sentimental Fool'- one of my all-time favourites (c) 'Could it Happen to me?' - - always sums up how I feel as a fan about BF/RM's music - 'Do you know what it means to me to delight in your company?' 'spose it could apply to the Avalon list too!

Obviously GP played bass on Boys & Girls (or was it Bete Noire?), but I don't recall any writing credits. My reason for asking is that I've just been looking around a Pink Floyd website which has some pages from a 1988 tour programme, and Guy's bit - findable at - states that he's "co-written songs with Power Station and Bryan Ferry". Anyone? - -- Mark VENINI - the only choice, the only voice, in the darkness. www.venini.co.uk ___________________________________________________________________________ Come to Las Vegas and hear the indestructible tagline sing selections from "The Jazz Singer" !

Firstly the tremendous interest there still is in this band. I receive over 500 page hits per week, without the luxury of being listed with all the major search engines. Feedback is almost without exception positive. The most common question being: when will Roxy reform? Secondly, if you set up a site like this, you are expected to become the font of all Roxy wisdom. It's not easy to answer the dozens of questions fired at me each month, but it is wonderful to know that Ferry is so appreciated. Recent correspondence has included enthusiastic requests from Chile, South Africa, Scandinavia and Japan, and from young and old alike. One chap mailed to tell me that his 12 year-old daughter had used the site as the basis for a school project. Nicest of all though are the large number of contributions I have received from callers. Mark Bennett-Tighe, a non-Avalonian, has sent me a series of 70's vintage articles for publication, the first few of which can be found under the articles index at www.roxyrama.com I will be publishing more in the coming weeks.
