This follows on from their "Singles" compilation and "Best 1 & 2", not to mention the compilations that were released during their original lifespan (I think there were 3). I got to thinking that the latest "Best Of Roxy Music" is only the second such compilation for Roxy and Roxy alone, the first being the Greatest Hits lp in 1977. This obviously discounts both the Atlantic Years and Early Years, but they were not "best of" retrospectives. And there's at least 2 Morrissey compilations. I'll crawl back under my Monday morning stone now... SimonG >>> "Robert Whiteford" 06/09 12:15 pm >>> Re Bahi's post which I've just caught up with and Ferry v's Morrissey 1) I've read some of the things Morrissey has supposedly said. If he said them - time will make him eat his words. Not exactly bursting with new & original ideas himself these days is he? He'll reform the Smiths someday to get a hit and some money. Bryan was always more than a student icon. ___________________________________________________________________________ The subliminable footer says: To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 11 Jun 2001 09:24:24 +0100 From: "Simon Galloway" Subject: Re: [AVALON] Manifesto Flyer!

I didn't fumble, though I handled the ball clumsily and a few people gave me some great suggestions to make another one go even better. Well, perhaps the second time will be the charm and, within weeks, we'll have a few more of these going. (Like Han's TOTP2 CD!) The CD in *this* tree is the well known Bryan Ferry bootleg THE STING OF EL FERRANTI, performed live in Japan in June 1977. This has been making the CD copy rounds for some time, and is a pretty decent audience recording. Apparently sourced from vinyl, the record from whence this copy was made skipped briefly a couple of times during "The Price of Love," but otherwise it is a good transfer. Artwork is also available if you want it. Since I'm neither willing nor able to make copies indefinitely, I will only be doing TWELVE, with the caveat that at least five people who take this disc will then offer, preferably in public, at least a few copies as well. That way, we can do this most like a proper tree. If you'd like a copy, then just E-mail me directly at gmslegion@hotmail.com and reserve your space in the tree. Please watch your reply-to and don't send back to the list. Indicate whether you're willing to make copies. Once I have twelve names and at least five of them are people who will also make copies, then I will e-mail Avalon to say it's closed. I'll then e-mail my twelve with further details and the artwork. Ideally, the copiers will then announce their "copiability." (fingers crossed) The twelve who are getting the disc from me must then send me a self-addressed stamped envelope and either $1 cash or a blank CD-R. If you send me a CD-R I will record on it; if you send $1 you'll get one of my blanks. If you have access to Mitsui Gold, which none of the local stores carry, I recommend using those since everyone seems to swear they're the best; but always use good media. Store brands are baaaaaad. (So, second time I've asked, but does anyone have a complete Glasgow September '82, aka "Words of Sand" on Firefly Records, that they wanna trade?) Have a great day and happy trading!

I have no opinion about you one way or the other, save that you committed an act I found massively distasteful. 3) Bryan didn't say that; KB Porter did. 4) People hated Bryan in 1978 because he made a lot of money and, unlike his successful contemporaries who kept lower profiles outside of their musical careers, used his wealth and success to court the society pages, date beautiful models, buy big houses and cars, frequent The Playboy Club and commit other such excesses which a rock press that embraced the Clash, the Pistols and others found egregious, wasteful and distasteful. These infractions, accepting that they are infractions, are of a slightly different caliber than your own. 5) Good grief, that was a long sentence. 6) One facet of this event, and paul's uncredited use of my review on the Ferry message board, should be addressed. This fandom isn't like The X Files or Star Trek or N-sync, where there are many hundreds of fan sites all attracting thousands of visitors weekly, with little apparent crossover in the traffic. There are only around a dozen Bryan Ferry pages out there, and while I personally only pop by three of them with any regularity, I think we should all be complementing and working to some level of community spirit. Obviously we all want to do something to make our own sites more unique, and "scooping" everyone else is the sort of thing Chris, for instance, excels in, but surely we can act with more civility and courtesy towards each other than a bunch of damn Trekkies stealing naked Denise Crosby pictures off each other. I mean, once John gets vivaroxymusic fully operational -- not that he'll have time, what with all the concerts he's attending, grumble grumble - -- I look forward to sending a visitor or two his way. The current tour should be cause for celebration and happiness, not aggro. If any other webmasters would like to weigh in with their thoughts on how we can further benefit each others' pages and remove some of the recent unpleasantness, I'd love to hear them, on- or off-list.

I never thought I'd have this experience in my lifetime. I guess smoe.org is going to have to change their "welcome" faq's a bit. Here's what they sent me. 3. What is the status of a possible Roxy reunion? Rumo[u]rs from 1993 to 1996 suggest that Bryan was offered good money for = a Roxy reunion tour, but was more interested in studio work with the band, if any= thing. He has repeatedly suggested that it might be interesting "to do something"= for the 25th anniversary of the first album, which was released in 1972. However, none of these rumors have any basis in fact and there will be no reunion. Oh, sure about that, are you?

Patience, Just a quick note: the real FAQ is updated (at least the tour stuff is, although I haven't had a chance yet to add one or two things to that section since I have been traveling again). The one included in the welcome message is indeed quite old. I had made the list owner aware of the updated version a long time ago. Colleen P.S. it's at www.his.com/cjem/roxyfaq.htm ___________________________________________________________________________ The subliminable footer says: To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 11 Jun 2001 12:26:43 -0400 From: KB Porter Subject: Re: [AVALON] hello again < It's good to be back...looks like the list has GROWN. > Heather, Stato hasn't updated us lately but I do believe your observation is correct!

I'm not the only list member who's "borrowed". See my Andy Mackay site from 1998 (with pictures from a record show that I airbrushed and scanned): http://home.ix.netcom.com/~dfirmin/mackay.html Some other guys site (note "borrowed" pics without acknowledgment): http://www.roxyrama.com/gallery/gallery_mackay.html I later had to dump the whole page because the colors were being used by this new site. I'm outta here...

I've been on the list for some time now, but just in a "lurking" capacity. Got into Ferry/Roxy approx 1977/8, through my best friend's brother. First saw them in 1982 at the NEC, Birmingham, UK. Favourite Roxy Album is "Siren", Favourite Ferry album is "In Your Mind". I'm looking forward to seeing them in my home City (Sheffield) and in my adopted City (Manchester).

Actually, this reminds me of the old "perfumed sigh." thread, where we were discussing whether or not a "perfumed sigh" was a revolting image, until it was revealed to me (by dawndelion) that the lyrics actually went, "your perfume sighs." Anyway, I think a truly "perfumed sigh" could only be produced by swallowing perfume. But what kind of perfume would one swallow? There are so many. Sigh. But thanks for the welcome.
