Found a couple of clips on youtube, but nothing more than that. If you do, please get in touch. Thank you.

I still don't get the love for No Strange Delight, but it's a song that might sound better live, with a tempo boost, congas, more rhythm guitar, etc. I find the studio version plodding and lifeless. ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 10 Oct 2016 12:07:03 +0100 From: Evans Richard Subject: Re: [AVALON] Flesh + Blood LIVE Some thoughts 1. In places this tour was fab particularly the Bogus Man opening - simply loved that 2. It wasn't the same without TGPT even though Andy Newmark is my second fave Roxy drummer. Michael Dawe who played on some dates just looked awkward 3. Rain Rain Rain and Flesh and Blood were far superior live than on the album - such a shame. 4. Just wish they had never recorded ITMH and EMH - my belief is that Roxy just don't and should never do covers 5. Gary Tibbs was a mighty fine bass player. 6. Such a shame about No Strange Delight Richard On 7 Oct 2016, at 12:03, Evans Richard wrote: > Brilliant - looking forward to listening to this. > > Thanks to you both as always > > Richard > > On 6 Oct 2016, at 22:31, Simon Galloway wrote: > >> Is there no strange delight?

Who was there? I'm reliably informed that My Little Girl made its live debut. Did it? Anyone get a recording? I can see a load of links on YouTube to stream the concert, but the actual streaming service looks a bit dodgy to me: https://www.youtube.com/results?sp=EgIIAg%253D%253D&q=bryan+ferry Anyway, if a recording does turn up, it means I'll have to rejiggle the live Manifesto! I wonder if he'll do No Strange Delight at the next show? ;) - -- http://glossoprecordclub.wordpress.com/ https://www.mixcloud.com/simongmusic/ ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ End of avalon-digest V15 #1155 ****************************** ======================================================================== For further info, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: info avalon-digest
