I think what a waste of opportunity. Somebody should have made a move. The timing would have been perfect around 1981 with your Quite Dreaming album and Bowie twiddling his thumbs with the Elephant Man. Your next album The Love that Whirls was strong compared to the Quit Dreaming which, despite John Leckie, seemed like an in between album of experimental demos. Bowie's next album Let's Dance was strong too. The reason I'm mentioning this is that I think you still can play with Bowie. That would be in the same way as the Beatles came back to perform on a John Lennon tune. As outlandish as this may sound and, no doubt, you would just be content to work away on your own music, but it is a possibility that worth exploring. Okay, forget redoing Sunburst Finish because that is a lot of painstaking work... but one song with Bowie? Fun and an adventure! You might even start a trend and give Bowie and yourself a posthumous hit. Get Reeves Gabrels and his computer involved, and John Leckie and/or Tony Visconti producing. Anyway, I think it's far out, but not that far that people wouldn't appreciate it.

Yes, got me confused.

@paul.smith cool and the drawings provoke specific emotions of running around and causing trouble. Rightly or wrongly, I think of Silly Putty as having emerged from this milieu and entered the mainstream at least in the US. Silly Putty was in the UK as well?

@paul.smith thought so but had to check.

Makes me realise how much an octoban resembles a spool of thread.

In classical music a composer writes a work, e.g. Beethoven's 5th Symphony, and many orchestras record their interpretation of it. Often dozens of interpretations by different conductors and orchestras exist. Why does this not apply to rock music? Why don't other bands record their complete version of, say, Dark Side of the Moon, Sgt. Pepper, Rumours etc? It would be great if there were several versions of classic rock albums by different artists and not just by the writers.. The notes and words would have to remain the same as the original but the arrangements and production could be vastly different in each case. Single tracks get covered by other artists so why not entire albums?

A track by one of my favourite bands - Camel. Andy Latimer is a top guitarist and the whole album 'Rajaz' is worth a listen
