Can't say that's true of The Jazz Age but I tell you, if I'm in Nero's having a coffee and it comes on (which it regularly does) it always puts a smile on my face. Sometimes I wonder if we expect too much, expect to be blown away immediately by BF's releases whereas actually in fact many from the Roxy / BF oeuvre were slow burners for me that I wouldn't happily live without now. Just a thought. I'd like to say too, thanks for Roxyrama, I understand the effort involved in maintaining it. I guess there's no chance of keeping it up but not updated? It used to be a great way to waste 5mins (or hours) trawling through the archives discovering something new. Thanks.
