Re: Bill Nelson

A bit of info on Bill Nelson - He started off as Gutarist for Be Bop Deluxe.
He has done tons of produvtion work as well as his solo stuff. He produced
The Skids - Days in Europa LP in 1980 and Gary Numan's Warriors LP in 1983
both of which are interesting. He is known for his unusual guitar style.

Apparently Mr Numan wasn't keen on the production work that Bill did on the
LP and re-did most of it after he had left! His work was mostly left on b
sides such as 'My Car Slides' & 'Poetry & Power' etc which is actually a
very good track - covered by US band Gravity Kills a couple of years ago!
Bill apparently sings on this Track!

WOW, am I pleasantly surprised at how many knowledgeable Bill Nelson fans
there are on the list! Bill Nelson's work has been a major influence on
me personally and artistically for about eighteen years now.

Actually saw him perform live once back in '83. Other artists he's
collaborated with include David Sylvian, Robert Fripp, Haruomi Hosono,
Ryuichi Sakamoto, Yukihiro Takahashi (collectively known as Y.M.O.),
Roger Eno - even Flock of Seagulls!

If anyone would care to discuss his works further - feel free to email
me off-line.

Regards,
Jon
