"I really like his voice", my wife, who bought her first Ferry album, "Betre Noir" after hearing him in a store, said. Then the playlist continued with Bruce Springsteen "Born to Run" and then Robbie Williams/Nicole Kidman Something Stupid. NP Jackson Browne The Load-Out with lyrics changed from "And we have Richard Pryor on the video." to "And we have Marvin Gaye on the CD."

A pancake house it turns out. ] Bob Evans is so much more than a pancake house. Rather, it is considered a family restaurant. All beverages are non-alcoholic, their yeast rolls are extremely tasty, the food is consistently good. Bob Evans is renown for their pork sausage (which I don't eat) that is also available in the uncooked form at most local supermarkets! For further information try www.bobevans.com ! Speaking of supermarkets and strange places to hear RM/BF music, yesterday I was at the local non anglicized supermarket and was pleased to hear the original full version of "Avalon" playing. Wonder if the store manager has been reading our 'song of the week' thread?

In Your Mind (Ferry) Hark the frozen chimes of winter Crystal shimmer in your mind To the first time when you saw her You implored her to be kind In the open fields around you All before you gone to ground Both the question and the answer Deep inside you - you shall find And while you're strollin' Through the summer of your years Enchanted, a garden overgrown Don't call me sentimental Those of you who care Could find there a lover and a friend.....to the end And if you're taken by the sprit of your age No reason to carve a cornerstone Sway me, trade me Your philosophy- First you're sowin' Then you're growin' Then you reap......until you sleep Will you scale the silver studded mountain Where contemplation'll spring to mind See the veiled prophet's withered gaze Reflect the "nouvelle-vague" Glazed visions imprisoned in your mind Unwinding rivers flowing through the meadows To the sea - paths of glory Through shifting glades to fall Present laughter and the memory Of troubles you have seen It is written in your mind ___________________________________________________________________________ The subliminable footer says: To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 6 Jan 2002 09:56:47 -0500 (EST) From: Colleen Matan Subject: [AVALON] drinks and/or dinner in London on February 11th? Since I'm here, let me also offer that I'm going to be in London on February 11th and am wondering that since a lovely evening was had the last time I was in tow, I am inquiring if there's any interest in organizing a drinks and/or dinner meet-up amongst so-located list members?

So it is entirely appropriate that we visit Mr. Ferry's 'four seasons'. The reflexive winter brings forth the answers and questions that spring to mind. - The summer meadows are ripe with the lushness of love and lovers, their eagerness to submit to whim changes in the approach of rocky summits where fluid streams cool amidst the autumnal harvests. Glazed though they may be, the rivers fall, winding through your mind. - By the time one reaches the summit much life has been lived, and there, it is easy to clearly see the vistas of your life as they roll down to the sea. Best wishes.

Ersatz old-English poetry, a great segue, and the way "In Your Mind" builds into something anthemic and wondrous is tremendous. It still sends a shiver down my spine when I hear it. No other artist could conjure up such images in a lyric without sounding pompous. I would hazard a guess that the "in Your Mind" album must be one of the most favoured solo efforts by the people on this list.

It appears that Mick spent a lot of time on the road with Bowie. Anyway This book retailed here in NZ at $75 so that is about $20 US or mm ahh 12 quid- Where did you see yours and how much was it? - I am shopping for it!

I have this video cd - it is entitled 'Psalm' and has the following tracks A hard Rains Gonna Fall If it Takes All Night Out of the Blue Psalm Street Life Virginia Plain The cd is produced in association with radio Bremen/studio hamburg and was released in 1995. The tracks cover various line ups including Jobson (for most of them) and Eno. (Virginia Plain) I can confirm that this is a most excellent cd - in fact there are 2 cds, a video cd and an audio cd and it was one of the best things that happened to me last year apart from the obvious of course- Roxy live in concert!
