Post by Mark RaePost by NivensWould anyone care to offer their opinion on this album
I like it.
Post by Nivensor suggest a favorite Bill Nelson post BeBopDeluxe recording?
Sound On Sound.
A classic case of shooting yourself in the foot if ever there was one.
Nelson disbanded the excellent Be-Bop Deluxe, a clever combination of
Roxy/Bowie meets heavy rock,
to try and jump on the "new wave" bandwagon which was sweeping the UK
at the time, the results can be
heard on the dreadful Red Noise album "Sound On Sound".
After that failed miserably he then split Red Noise and fancied
himself as a poor man's Eno
and released 1,000's of ambient style stuff, which, to my knowledge he
is still doing.
I gave up on him yonks ago but I would recommend "Quit dreaming and
get on the beam" which was released in 1981 and is available on cd,
remastered with a few bonus tracks.
