Quotation from the FYP review:

"Ferry doesn’t really write verse-chorus structures, so the band is left to their own devices for arrangements"

He's spot on with post 'break' albums though eh?
The painful, slow motion putting on of the carpet slippers!

It's after reading impartial articles like this, it makes me realise how much I wish The Explorers had been more successful (I blame the choice of James Wraith...too Ferryesque).

I still listen to The Explorers a lot. They did some really good songs with both Phil and Andy able to shine. Perhaps they should have gone for someone completely different to BF, such as a female singer?
