Of course: I forgot to mention those places, as they are 100% devoid of classical stuff. But apart from that they do look hipper than the places on Bv St Mich - prob is I'm so unhip myself.
Rosie and I ought to go to Paris soon, being both horribly overworked, except the plan is to go to her native Andalucia next month, where, alas, people speak a thousand tongues I'm unconversant with.

"somebody will tell me it's a load of crap surely?"

On this thread very likely.

Listened to it a couple of times so far, and I think it's about on a par with Human Touch / Lucky Town. Not at all bad, but a bit patchy.

I tend to agree with the earlier posting that said he could do with a good editor, if he'd have just culled tracks from Human Touch and Lucky Town then that would have been a really great single album.

My own personal favourite is Tunnel Of Love. I like Nebraska a great deal, but I found Tom Joad just a bit too dull.

Steve.

P.S - For those of you with '45 capability try playing I'm On Fire (from Born In The USA) at 45rpm. Sounds just like Dolly Parton.
