Brian Ferry. Good lord, what a talent.

From the wiki: 3] Peter York described Ferry as "an art object" who "should hang in the Tate".[4]

Is that a compliment? I mean, British dry sense of humor, and all.

@steveL I played them a few weeks ago, but there are a lot of initials on the front so you may well have heard it on someone else's show last week.

@efd, I know. I’m on an earlier self-imposed schedule and I’m trying to stick with it, so you might see me more regularly. Though sometimes my pain makes me lie down and not comment (still listen, though)

I first saw them in 1983 and they were all pretty wasted even then. The were supporting The Birthday Party, I reckon long term survival of most of the crowd there that night was marginal.

Total Rejection is still not on RateYourMusic, which means very obscure (on Discogs, though, but they are not as good as RYM for where the band is from)

Phillippe Bastille:

@efd when I was in college about 4 decades ago, I had several very part time jobs. One paid for gas and an occasional date, another paid for alcohol, and the third paid for records. And yes, I actually parsed the money that way. The record money was almost always well spent, because I knew a guy who had a used record shop (think High Fidelity) who would set stuff aside for me because he knew I'd be there with cash every Saturday around noon. Usually an album or 2 or 3, depending on what he wanted for them. It was glorious.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:38pm
efd:

Perfect setup, Phillippe! I was in college around the same time and on the radio there, which gave me access to (though not always ownership of) lots of great stuff.

spacecowboy:

@phillipe the perfect lifestyle
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:45pm
Phillippe Bastille:

Yep. I tried to go the @EFD route and auditioned for WMUC at U of MD, but they told me that although I had the perfect face for radio, I had the perfect poise for the busboy at Tippy's Taco House (I'm paraphrasing)

In the early 80s my best friend and I had a shift at KCMU in Seattle, and I worked at a record store, which meant basically I was constantly broke on records

@bootsie and is there a "and..." in there?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:04pm
Phillippe Bastille:

@scraps we all do. Juggling a mortgage, a kid in college and another who won't leave home, and the choice comes down to the $10 18 pack of Rolling Rock vs the $11 18 pack of Natural Light. Forget about buying new music...
