He has listened to "Frantic" and writes me, in Swedish, somewhat along these lines: "I have only heard the Ferry album twice, but on the whole I like the sound. Ferry/Stewart have written songs in a style that reminds me, without being rip-offs, of things in Bryan's past. Two Dylan covers and a couple of blues songs add a little frashness. Frantic is mot as esteric as Mamouna but more striaght forward. The songs are clear. The selection of covers are on the whole tasteful. Of the new tracks, Nobdy loves me and Hiroshima stand out. I thought, written by av Ferry/Eno, is a funny thing that reminds me of what they did in Roxy Music."

Thom thinks: "Is it only me who finds it strange that Ferry's new album contains material that's mostly about 5 years old?" No, Thom. I think it is a bit strange, too. It seems rather incredible, given the time interval since BF's "Mamouna", that the anticipated album's pieces are primarily old work. Had it not been previously touted to be a 'rock and roll' album of 'original work' as late as last autumn? Yet, what is "Frantic" if it is not a collection of bluesy covers and penned whatever. I do suppose I should cut Mr. Ferry some slack since it has been a 'frantic' past few years with the releases since "As Time Goes By", its tour, the Roxy Music Reunion, the near crash, and all those numerous things a person must contend with on a daily basis. But please do tell me that BF has a surprise album 'up his sleeve' - an album of original material that was written in recent years to be release (sometime in 2002 A.D.) hot on the heels of an already frantically scheduled year. Perhaps "Frantic" is an excellent name for this new release. Perhaps a prominently displayed, obviously old photo of Bryan Ferry is perfect for the jacket since I suspect most of the 'original' songs to appear on "Frantic" were born in the 80's! Formaldehyde anyone?

If you haven't heard a note of it, how can you be "too close" to it? And if the music is good, what does it matter when it was written? I hear that that Bach guy is still pretty popular and his music is pretty old. Colleen (who, btw, doesn't find it "strange" that the music on the album is several years old as it seems Mr. Ferry has had a bit of a writer's block for some time now. But in the end--for the purposes of _Frantic_--does it really matter as long the quality is there? I will admit it is worrisome for future output. Then again, certainly Mr. Ferry is under no obligation to keep producing music even on his deathbed.) ___________________________________________________________________________ The subliminable footer says: To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 21 Feb 2002 11:59:49 EST From: OBrienFerry@AOL.COM Subject: Re: [AVALON] Ferry open air concert in July In a message dated Thu, 21 Feb 2002 11:32:29 AM Eastern Standard Time, David Firmin writes: > Event: Open Air Concert > > Venue: Nostell Priory > > Date: 27 July 2002 > > Details: Booking essential - tel. 01909 511061. > I am told this date was provisional but has since been cancelled.

I've been a "fan" since Roxy's inception way back in 1972, followed them, Ferry, 801 and The Explorers all over the world, but there comes a time when commercialism overtakes fanatisism. I used to spend fortunes buying singles, LPs, bootlegs etc. and have a pretty good collection of original material. I still spend fortunes buying their material! However, I cannot understand how Ferry can feel accomplished and expect respect and acknowledgement for his works when he has released only four (4) albums/CDs which are entirely his own penmanship, collaborated with others in some regards. Namely: In Your Mind Boys and Girls Bette Noire and Mamouna Every other official release has cover versions. I stand to be corrected and apologise where necessary. So, like the anticipation of Mamouna, I would like to think that our Bryan has penned enough original material to compliment one album/CD (I still have a turntable) which he can call his own! When you think of all the "collections" that have been released over the years, surely they are not that desperate for cash to entice saps like you and I to buy these "Greatest Hits", "The Ultimate Collection", "The Atlantic Years", "The Best Of....", "The Best of The Ballads",....... While admitting that Roxy's 2001 concerts were the highlight of my musical experiences since Simple Minds played Massey Hall, Ferry's Mamouna concert came close but....I think that we are due more than 5 or 6 original six songs, written with others, and a few more covers. Hopefully Frantic will give us bit more for our money than Ferry's usual 35 to 40 minutes of recordings that took him 5 years to put together! Thanks for your patience and understanding.......
