Heard he recovered and was doing well. OK, just checked up and its that he is recovering from a brain hemorrhage and brain surgery. Has sung in public, but is still in recovery.

I have gotten email responses from Mark Burgess, Rolo McGinty, and Pelle Carlberg.

Batting on a sticky wicket here Tony. Usually it's the people round the bands who are the complete knobs.

Edwyn's a top man, as is Mark Burgess.

Perhaps most lead singers are not sad bastards who spend their life sitting in front of a computer screen.

If you look on the ramona Falls thread, he spends a great deal of time in front of the computer, but he's creating music, so I guess that makes it cool. :question:

Someone posted a bunch of videos/concert footage of Orange Juice. Wow, it's an amazing concert. Edwyn sounds fabulous and the band is really tight. I wish I had been of age back then. SHIT.

Anyway, look it up nefore UMG finds it and pulls it off You Tube as they did with the video for Rip It Up.

I've got most of his his stuff on vinyl. It makes me nostalgic for record shops. Remember when going into one was an adventure?
