Look, these people couldn't even write basic English properly. 'Pirate ships they rob I'? What the **** is that supposed to mean?Quote:

I used to record with the bloke that recorded that album, Bob Lamb, in a studio he set up with the money he made from it. We used to rehearse in his studio too, until Ocean Colour Scene (nee the Fanatics, of course) got their publishing deal and block booked the rehearsal room for six months, the feckers. But Bob let us rehearse in the main studio when he wasn't recording in it. OCS used to leave their fan mail lying around in the kitchen. :-|Quote:

Bob worked with Duran Duran too.

And of course Rumours was recorded in 76 and released in 77.Quote:

I'm going to give you credit and assume you deliberately used 'amount' rather than 'number' there, doc. :-\Quote:

No. I think the chap I knew was Andy Wickett. Until the time he was round the flat and foolishly started a fight with my streetfighting flatmate from West Brom and got his head seriously kicked in. Claret everywhere. Apart from the time he came round to apologise for that we didn't see him again. Saw him perform once or twice. Good looking fella and decent singer but not good looking enough, it seemed. Simon le Bon was considered better looking and poor Andy never got over it. It's why he did silly things like picking fights.Quote:

Ha! Yes. Simon le Bon is indeed most appealing. Sweet, charming and engaging too.Quote:
