| Wrote this on Friday but forgot to send it - it's probably all been covered by now but never mind. >7 - Band member changes happen so what. >From: keith ashley < >keith_stuart2 @ hotmail.com> > >It happens all the time remember GENESIS? they replaced their lead singer >not once but twice! oh dear arn't they naughty! >Did you say when Phil Collins joined Genesis after Peter Gabriel left that >it wasnt now Genesis? of course you didnt and that was the lead singer,the >whole voice of the band. Surely Phil Collins didn't join when Gabriel left, but stepped out from behind the drums where he already was as a founder member? >The facts are band members fall by the wayside and thats up to them,you >also >go on about the Beatles wouldnt be the Beatles if one of them left.Well >from >what ive seen didnt Ringo replace Pete Best?also they had another member i >carnt remember his name,but he left the band to stop in Germany with his >girlfriend. But all that predates them even releasing a record, hardly a comparable situation to that which applies now to Level 42. There's a fundamental difference between personnel changes in nascent or developing bands in which that new line-up goes on to create its own catalogue, and the recruitment of musicians simply to play old material. I'm not slagging off the all-new Level 42, they do what they do and do it fine; all I'm saying is it's hard to see this as a change in line-ups in a creatively active band, which the examples you give are. >Notice I won't pick on anyone personally by disecting their e-mail word for >word with >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> and trashing it. >I show more respect than that. Is it disrespectful to do this? I just see it as the e-mail equivalent of a conversation. I must brush up on my e-mail etiquette.

| im sorry if Ive uspet anyone with what I have said my typing does not make me say what I really meant. Ive only really heard the level 42 thats arouns now and the songs are the ones I love, theyv'e got a lot of songs from the 1970s and 1980s and a lot of you love them but i dont becuase they were around before I was born. Theres a lot of us that have only just got into level 42 inb the past few years and I thought that this internet grouping was for all of us to talk about the music we really love and cos I havent had them for all that long im not as listening as long as the rest of you but I love they're music!! Ive even gone out and bought all theyre back catalogue, the other people at my school reckon im a loser cos I talk about Level42 all the time but iv'e got a few others listening to there music and they like it. I try to listen each lunchtime but it means im on my own listening and afterwards too. if You dont get new people listening then what used are the sales? I dont have as much experience as you so im sorry about that. PS Ive listened to the early tapes and its sounding kindof cool in its old kind of way. I like AG 's anwsers to these letters he/she is funny to. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Get your free email address at http://www.lancsmail.com/ | ||
