Hence, you get your one hit wonders and Pop Idol contestants who sell well initially and then are swiftly dropped. Ask yourself the question - what happened to the likes of Joe Dolce and Michelle Mcmanus? The likes of Kylie and, ok, Madonna - there, I said it - have displayed at least a certain amount of talent in maintaining successful careers. Now, part of this talent might just be picking the right people to work with, or, more crucially, the right songs but it is still impressive to maintain a career at the top of the ever fickle world of pop music for over 20 years.

And it's amazing. All new interviews with the key personnel, the Roxy story written in a completely original and highly creative way and illustrated almost exclusively with never before seen photos from the very early years... Seeing a photo of Andy done up as Dirk Bogarde in Death in Venice is especially great and there is even a photo of the elusive Susie (Cussins). The definative Roxy Music book has now been written.

I had no idea that Juliet Mann played such a key role in the early days... ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 25 Sep 2007 18:17:01 EDT From: LeeSullivanart@aol.com Subject: [AVALON] Listen up, Spuds Almost completely off-topic (except that their first LP was produced by Eno) but no apologies at all for bringing to your attention the remarkable return to form of Ohio's finest, DEVO.
