I picked up a copy of Roxy Music's "For Your Pleasure" in the dollar bin. I forgot what a fun record it is. Check out the dry Tron strings on the "Bogus Man". Bryan Ferry's voice is at times difficult to listen to, however. John #911

Mackay's sax/oboe - at times difficult to listen to as well. Lots of Eno on the title track. The retro-video works well with this song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YS_NRR86Qnw --- In newmellotrongroup@yahoogroups.com, "johnm400s911" <john.wright@...> wrote:

Ferry's voice is amazing! Those songs would be rubbish if someone sang them in an 'ordinary' voice. "Before I die, I write this let-ter..." "Valerie, pur-lease, believe me, it never would have worked out..." "I blew up your body... but you blew my mind" etc etc etc --- In newmellotrongroup@yahoogroups.com, "johnm400s911" <john.wright@...> wrote:

"Before I die, I write this let-ter..."
"Valerie, pur-lease, believe me, it never would have worked out..."
"I blew up your body... but you blew my mind"

It seems to me the reviewer would need to have some sort of experience as a customer before making that comment. It's a scary thought. -Bruce D. --- On Fri, 4/1/11, Mike Dickson <mike.dickson@gmail.com> wrote:
