"do the strand" and "jealous guy" (not from memphis, just the lennon cover) also are roxy titles. I actually just pulled out a roxy music cd from a long-untouched 70's cd bin, but for the life of me i can't find any samples or other references beside the track titles... >> > this some sort of strange Cologne, Germany reference? hmmmm... check this out: we had a club here called 42dp that (before it turned all-electronic) was famous for its door policy at the height of the 80's and for not having let brian ferry in once when he played in cologne. maybe he should've brought jerry hall along :-D cheers, tom np: brian ferry/roxy music: street life :-)
