    Much prefer this one, frenchie. Unfortunately I could only ever speculate about her going down well!

    SLB - The Waterboys - not bad<ok> -must date you to around the time your namesake left for Italy? If your musical taste is half as eclectic as their membership it must cover everything <laugh>

    Back on the French theme, Nouvelle Vague is French for 'New Wave'; Bossa Nova is Portuguese for 'New Wave' - so of course this French band does covers of New Wave songs in a Bossa Nova stylee......

    I was very nearlythe bass player for the Waterboys! Made it through to the third audition (this was 1981 or thereabouts, they had made a 6 track EP with Mike Scott playing just about everything, and were recruiting a band for the first album and tour). Didn't get the gig, though!

    Some great shouts.

    <laugh> BB.

    That means you were very nearly a teenage hero of mine, harrow ;-).

    I had a pal play drums for The Popes, and another who was pals with Mike Scott in Dublin, late 80s. My favourite album of theirs was 'A Pagan Place'.

    I agree with Hornette about Meatloaf. His 'Bat Out of Hell' is the best debut album ever, IMHO.

    SLB - Jim Steinman is incredible. i saw a documentary about him a while back, and his musicianship is completely underrated imho.
