Why?". I didn't want to hear a retro cover on Frantic because I had been anticipating all tracks to be goodies on this release of 'mostly new material' since Mamouna. Putting my disappointment aside, I subsequently have come to think OWL would be a great kick-off for a party with a sock hop theme. Or, if one does not take the song too seriously (as pop should not be taken seriously, I think), and is in the company of other well humored folk, OWL is a hoot! Certainly to a non-Ferry fan of a maturing age, OWL would probably have great appeal. I quite agree, that given the fact OWL appears on Frantic, it is a very good transitional piece well placed between San Simeon and I Thought. On the other hand, I personally would have preferred something off Horoscope or Alphaville instead. I think Mark summed it up very well by writing: "That is the Beauty of Frantic, so many facades from the slow and deep to "the up and at em" Pop songs." I am perplexed, however, what is going on with the sound level at ~ 1:36 into 'One Way Love'? It seems to momentarily suffer a muted effect - is that really intentional? Remember me kindly. The unpopular Porter has struck again! Best wishes, all. ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon Avalonians on tour 2002: http://helios.unive.it/~tcecilia/meetup.html ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 03 Jul 2002 17:15:22 +0100 From: "Simon Galloway" Subject: [AVALON] Apologies if... .. you've had any bounced emails from me. Our ISP went bust yesterday and left us in the lurch, resulting in emails sent to my address bouncing (so the engineers tell me). We've got a temporary set-up in place, but there may be problems with that too. Ho hum.

I like it and have played it a lot these last few weeks. Fair to say that Bowie could claim constituency with Roxy/Ferry fans and I'm wandering whether the off topic people want to set up a Heathen splinter group. I'm not serious of course. Here's a bit of on-topic. SOTW - One Way Love. great cover version,.... fun, friendly, catchy. I like the vocal especially. But who sang the original? and when ?
