I hope WS2 has a splendid evening with the Bryan Ferry Band and I'm eagerly awaiting the latest issue of the Windswept Morning Post Both Ends Burning: I prefer the original because I am not sure whether a background choir fits in here (or in other Roxy songs - negative example: Cry, Cry, Cry). The Viva! live version is great because of the brilliant transition from CM to BEB - great harmonica playing, as WS2 mentioned. Apollo 2001: Good to have them back at that time but a little bit too fast ... Heart Still Beating: Faster than the original but I like this one, too. Conclusion: My #1 is the original version but every live version of BEB has its own charm, too. À bientôt, -pm- |

À bientôt, -pm- Hipsters, The ever tasteful Pianoman makes some interesting comments that has made W2 reflect: Do backing vocals enhance early VOs ? Windswept thinks it depends. With regards to BEB he thinks the addittion is very positive because it gives the song even more energy. It really makes it burn ! Is faster than the original a good thing ? Something W2 dislikes and he was reminded of it when playing tracks back to back is how the tempo of a number of original versions is moved up for the live performances. For the most part W2 doesn't approve of this practice - it doesn't add anything and seems to make the songs less poignant. But this is just one man's view. Salutations, W2 |

Excluding verses is even more irritating. When one of my teenage anthems, "Street Life," was shortened on the 2001 tour, I was soooooooo upset. |
