Bryan Ferry

[Maggie/915]

On Jools Holland this week.

He is still better than most.

[Symptoms]

He's not as good as the Cramlington Budgie Strangler ... and you know what I think of him.

[Maggie/915]

We will have to agree to differ.

No accounting for taste.

After all it's only Rock and Roll and all!

[mercuryg]

I'm a massive fan of Ferry and Roxy Music.

[keith lockey]

Ditto, Merc'.

[mercuryg]

The first three Roxy albums are among the best ever made. The debut was truly ground breaking.

 

**Mind, it's telling of the ways of the internet that, when I read the title of the thread, I thought he was dead!

[Symptoms]

The only reason folks bought Poxy Music's stuff was for the porn on the album covers.

[Malcolm Robinson]

Seconded Sym..........

 

Might have somehting to do with a girl I wanted to date was besotted with Brian Ferry.  

 

Not sure he could even sing?  

[Maggie/915]

His style and presentation are great.

The music is equally good and yes he can sing.

Seem to remember he even used a Renault 4 on on LP

[Malcolm Robinson]

Renault 4, oh yeah I remember that one...........not!

 

 

 

[ex Bedlingtonian]

Am I missing something here - why is "Bryan Ferry" in "Talk of the Town"?

[Maggie/915]

Why not?

[ex Bedlingtonian]

What has he got to do with the town?

[Maggie/915]

Topics of general interest!

Why do we bother!

[ex Bedlingtonian]

Sorry, no offense intended - just curious.

 

"Serious stuff about Bedlington, the wider Bedlingtonshire area,"

[Symptoms]

I've got this one Maggs.  It's really about the comparison between The Very Naughty Boy and the Cramlington Budgie Strangler.  Cramlington is in "the wider Bedlingtonshire area,"

[Malcolm Robinson]

No it isn't Sym..........?

 

Crammers is across the river.  

[Symptoms]

So, Bedlingtonshire is North of the River Blyth? 

[Malcolm Robinson]

Basically Bedlingtonshire goes from the Blyth to the Wansbeck...backing up to the A192 and the sea on the other side.  

 

Runs off down a small stream on the A192 before Hepscott.  

 

AFAIK!
