Writer is gossip supremo Nigel Dempster. Ferries have drifted apart After 20 years of marriage and four sons, stylish crooner and his wife Lucy (42) have decided to split. She told me yesterday from Italy: "We have drifted apart". Things have not been going smoothly between Bryan - who has a #5million manor house in Little Bognor, West Sussex - and Lucy since the death of her Lloyd's underwriter father Patrick Helmore and Lucy's subsequent renunciation of all alcohol. Their eldest son, Marlborough-educated Otis (19) is a whip with the Middleton Hunt and the second son Isaac (17) was suspended from eton for sending illiterate hate-mail to an anti-hunting campaigner. The family - minus one son - were on a BA flight to Nairobi two Christmases ago when burly Paul Mukonyi tried to storm the cockpit. The family is still contemplating legal action against BA for letting crazed student Mukonyi aboard the jumbo from Gatwick and lucy told me last year that the airline company should have made sure he stayed in his seat. when former fashion icon Lucy attended the 75th anniversary of Vogue magazine, she wore a baby-doll by Bella Freud and told me: "Christian LaCroix is my favourite - he's the greatest". In 1993, Lucy spent nine weeks being detoxed at booze clinic Farm Place near Ockley, Surrey, and the following January, Bryan spent the New Year on his own in the Barbados. But Bryan's PR man at Virgin, Jeremy Silver, said at the time: "It was a pre-planned trip to give Bryan time to write some music. His marriage is not over or on the rocks or anything else." But now it is all over.

While this is sad news let's just remember our interest is stimulated by his music and that discussions on the why, what, and when of his private life should be kept to a minimum as basically it is none of our business.

Maybe Frantic is > gonna be among them? > > http://www.r2-dvd.org/article.jsp?sectionId=2&articleId=4524 I don't think Frantic will ever be released in DVD-A, as it is already out in SACD. The two formats are similar in their attempt to convey audiophile-quality multichannel audio. Many folks prefer SACD over DVD-A sonically. The two required different players until recently, as I have heard there is now a unit which plays just about any sort of small shiny disk. There's a nice little feature in the online Chicago Tribune about the Stones' back catalog coming out in SACD. The authorlists Frantic among only 10 others (along with the Rolling Stones remasters) as his pick of the best SACD releases. http://www.chicagotribune.com/technology/chi-0208130204aug13.story Karen ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon Avalonians on tour 2002: http://helios.unive.it/~tcecilia/meetup.html US ticket sale info: http://www.thewebgal.com/roxymusic/ (updated weekly) ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 13 Aug 2002 20:21:16 -0400 From: "Helen Thorpe" Subject: [AVALON] li-M-erick Like the new one - am memorizing as I type!
