He's not looking too happy though is he? Hope he perks up by November. Did you film any of Steve Harley ad Cockney Rebel Tracey? Would love to see that.

"How do you build a grandfather clock?" "Take a piece of wood and knock off everything that doesn't look like a grandfather clock." I remember BF quoted in Rolling Stone about Take a Chance with Me: "We wanted to do more stuff that sounds like that." OK, great, now I am Bob Dylan. - ----- Original Message ----- > From: Chris Turner > To: Avalon > Cc: > Sent: Tuesday, August 13, 2013 4:55 PM > Subject: [AVALON] Isle Of Noises > > BF has contributed to a new book about songwriting by Daniel Rachel called > 'Isle Of Noises' to be released next month.
