Amongst other things, Ommadawn becomes Madonna, Tubular Bells Four becomes two balls for, Trevor Horn gets his name mangled, etc etc. Unbelievable. -------------- Website@: http://www.musicbysweep.com Twitter: sweep1 Bradnor Hill (in memory of David Bedford): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKeATjaMCgA Back to top

I think he should listen to other people's music sometimes. Hasn't been many collaborations??? Maggie Riley? Morris Pert? Rick Fenn? Tim Cross? Paddy Moloney etc etc ...and while we're on the subject of Ommadawn, maybe Clodagh Simonds should ring a bell??? His comments about Trevor Horn's influence are revealing. Can't stand that album.

'What shall I do?' And, um... I just sort of flipped a switch and went into, you know, 1975-mode. And out came all these melodies." I had to listen to this interview again, and I must say this particular statement gives me hope. If he'll only not mess it up with bad production, it'll be the come-back of all come-backs. -------------- Watch out for snakes! Back to top
