Subject: [AVALON] Remarkable happening

Went to see James play live in Brixton, London last week (although my dream
of ex-Roxy James producer Brian Eno repeating his guest appearance last time
James played London went unrealised). Came out and, like 4 other James punters
 who parked their cars in all directions away from the venue, found my car
had  been trashed and some blighter had run away with my Sat Nav, Bluetooth,
jacket,  etc (all of which had been neatly hidden away from plain sight).

What's remarkable is that the police have arrested the guy who did this.  The
guy apparently found a phone bill in my car (more than I probably could have
done) and used it to apply for a store card so he could purchase a #1,700
plasma  TV and sound system. The store called the cops and the guy spent the
next
36 hrs  in a jail cell being questioned and coming up with some bizarre and
fanciful  answers. He also tested positive for cocaine.

All of this by the by, but what is TRULY remarkable is that I had the whole
back catalogue of Roxy and Bryan Ferry on CD in my car. This guy spurned my
entire music selection, including the 1989 box set of the first three Roxy
albums with the EG compilation bonus disc. Maybe cocaine use had  blunted his
taste in music but I've never been so insulted in all my  life...anyone have
any
idea what the "going rate" for the said box set might  be?

Best wishes
Richard Mills

KWil...etc,etc said
Is he thinking "Who is Mr Saxon"?
 
Is this an irrelevant Dr Who comment? Cos I am wondering who is this Mr  
Saxon who snitched on the Doctor to Martha's mum also...Guess I'll find out when  
the excitement of Eurovision is over.

Hi
Does anybody know if the track 'Call Out Hook' (on US promo cd single) is a 
track in itself, or simply another version of Goddess Of Love. (in previous 
email referred to earlier as 'Get Hook').
Ta
Ade.

Not too bad I guess.

Although it will no doubt be out of the charts by July the Diana thing
should give it a boost as well.

Come on the anoraks, is there no one with a list of absolute sales figures
for the Ferry / Roxy albums?

Cheers

Out of interest he's no. 11 in the Waitrose chart (where he shops according  
to some paparazzi photos I have seen). 
 
:)
 
It's interesting that, like ATGB, this album hasn't been a massive stayer  in 
the top ten but it has been a good steady seller all the same. 
 
Also of interest is that fact that he was spotted locked in conversation  
with Tony Visconti at the Jools Holland recording....

All the list mail to the folks who are using it as their email address  
has been bouncing for a few days now, so it's not just AOL.

Subject: [AVALON] Subrock.se

Hi everybody !

This is my first mail to this list, even though I have been on since August
2005. (And I have recently changed my mail address.)

I am Filip Bjvrner. Born in 1959. A ticket collector in the subway of
Stockholm. Has been a Roxy fan since first time I heard Virginia Plain on the
radio. But the first band in my heart is Uriah Heep, Roxy is only number
two...

I own this site: www.subrock.com And together with a friend I search for bands
who like to put up mp3 files there. Mostly it will be local bands, in a few
cases with record contracts.

As you can see, that site has some Heep related content. I would like to add
something Roxy related. For example some Roxy cover. So, tell me, if you got a
tip !

- --------

I got all the Roxy albums on vinyl, and all by Ferry, and a few by Manzanera,
Mackay and Eno. I never saw Roxy live. Ferry I have seen twice in Stockholm,
in the 90'ies.

I saw John Wetton with Heep in Oslo at the Return To Fantasy tour, and still
remember that he played very energic and lifted the band, even though he had
replaced Thain.

I also saw Eddie Jobson in a concert in Oslo in the late 70'ies. He was there
with Frank Zappa. (NO!! I am not a Zappa fan, but I was there with some
friends...) On that concert Zappa brought just a little band, after an earlier
period with a huge Mothers... band. And suddenly, in the mid of the concert,
Eddie gave us all a unique and extensively long electric violin solo. And that
was simply magic !!! It was the the thrill of it all... so to speak. It was
the only good thing in that concert, and both beautiful and wild.

Cheers,
Filip
www.subrock.com

PS: Scandinavian reading readers can discuss Roxy Music in Scandinavian
languages, here:
http://tubsnack.6.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=17
I wrote there that I'm looking forward for another Roxy studio album. Of
course, best would be with Eno, but realistically at least both Manzanera and
Mackay should join.
