I always read that Paddy McAloon is a genius songwriter. Maybe I just haven't heard the right Prefab Sprout album yet.

Hey Leigh.....For you thi is a perfect song to come in on!....how was the gig last nite?
Avatar 2:23pm
AtlanticTunnel:

Double R......He really is a magical person.....The production may stop you for really appreciating his work....It's very 80's!
  2:24pm
Double R:

@Ed.. you're right. I think it's the 80s production.That's hard for me to get past sometimes I'll have to work on that.
  2:26pm
Double R:

Alan Hull..... now there's a songwriter!!
Avatar 2:28pm
AtlanticTunnel:

Yeah!.....It's really worth the time!....I spent an evening with him...We went to see Jimmy Webb...and even Webb took time to acknowledge him from the stage!
Avatar 2:28pm
Leigh Gregory:

Gig was very chaotic - still good to get out and play and nice to see some folks out again at Hotel Utah where we all met!!

I saw a great movie they made where they take a critic who hates them on tour with them to Mexico. That takes some nerve. Cool guys. And the bass player is married to my favorite actress ( bastard!!). Fran Healy is a great songwriter.

the bunk:

when the loose aggregation surrounding klaus nomi splintered into several bands, what...? 1979? 80? ish... one of the bands 'strange party', spun off 2 really interesting groups: 'cool it reba', and 'lonesome high'. '...reba' was truly great but i was thinking 'lonesome high'... they sometimes could tell a real story in their songs. you respond to a kind of 'story song'. i dunno...
