haha! Not something I make a habit of doing might I add Richard...... but looking through beer goggles in a dark strange venue has a lot to answer for.... ;)

Now onto these favourite sites of yours. What and where? haha

Hello Windswept

Aw, I am very good thank you. Hope all is good and well with you too.

I can see you are all set and ready for all the new Jazz offerings. I am on your side when it comes to A.T.G.B. I thought the tour was stunning everything from the stage set to the whole get up clobber they were wearing and BF charming and lovely as ever. The musicians were excellent and I'm so glad he has worked with them again on this Jazz album they are pure class.

I know this Jazz thing isn't to everyone's taste, and some won't get it...just like I don't get what all fuss is about when it comes to 'Do The Strand' it has to be one of my least favourite Roxy songs. (did I just say that out loud ....? tin hat at the ready) But horses for courses and all that.
Not so long ago I was reading posts about how it would be a great idea for BF to cover his own songs, some suggested piano and acoustic (me included) but he has chose to go down the Jazz road, something he adores and grew up around and holds close to his heart.
Personally I think its a nice move making your own songs sound completely different and giving them a completely different genre. I take my hat off to the big man.
The fans who enjoyed A.T.G.B will be the ones most excited about it I suppose, and I will be buying a copy too which will undoubtedly be getting a nightly airing whilst soaking in my bubbling bath of bubbles.

If it floats me boat of course. :D

Fellow Lotharios & would be Starlets,
TJA can now be previewed at the iTunes store!
From the snippets, it all sounds quite brilliant and as our hero promised, the tracks sound like they've been recorded by different bands from the era and each has a very unique feel - great stuff!
I particularly like "The Only Face", "I Thought" and "Just Like You".
I can't wait to get my hands on the real thing.
Regards,
Windswept

Liking everything I hear from this ....although Reason or Rhyme sounds right up my street... Also, quite taken by the morphine drenched Love is the drug . Oh and Just like you sounds gorgeous... Actually it all sounds great - just worry that the pieces may at times be too short ....But I suppose that's the nature of this kind of music :)
