Short thread sorry, , hi guys, just to let you BA fans out there know that the BA's will be doing Janice Long session tonight on Radio 2 between midnight and 3am! I'm going down and might get roped into some percussive duites. Adieu! |

Spence, I wasn't aware of the reissue of Swagger, perhaps my favorite by the BA's...I must have it- thanks for the alert. |

Glad I was of some use! I still love it after all these years. I had a real personal attachment to it having played withthe guys on the Swagger tour, one of the best times of my life. These songs always feel fresh. the additional cd is good, a few covers are questionable, like Sweet Jane and You gonna need somebbody, but its great. The album features two of my favourite muscicians, John Langley on drums, ex Strangelove and Witness, currently back in BA's and hopefully playing on some new reccordings withThe Winnebago Orchestra, and Angelo Bruschini, now of Massive Attack. Both lovely chaps too! |
