From the age of 37 (having released Avalon) until relatively recently he's done naff all of any consequence. The rot stopped around the time ATGB was released, which showed, once again, his immaculate taste in cover material. But what's the explanation for the 20 year gap? I think he shouldn't have got married. See how, after splitting, Roxy's been reformed, a new album is in production and the man seems altogether chirpier. He looked 37 again at Koko, flitting effortlessly back and forth between mike and keyboard - a man from the Over You era. And yes, Lucy he's over you... ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 17 May 2006 14:39:59 EDT From: KWil632057@aol.com Subject: Re: [AVALON] Why has Bryan Ferry wasted the best years of his life? Crumbs! Phil, is that really you? I can see why the album is taking a while to finish...

Well Eno's been mailing the list for years under his nom d'Avalon Richard Mills. Although I doubt anyone could imagine a member of Roxy would employ the expression "naff all." - -----Original Message----- From: owner-avalon@smoe.org [mailto:owner-avalon@smoe.org] On Behalf Of KWil632057@aol.com Sent: 17 May 2006 19:40 To: avalon@smoe.org Subject: Re: [AVALON] Why has Bryan Ferry wasted the best years of his life?
