    When I was a very young kid, my father was a drummer, and he had a fantastic vinyl collection. The cover of "Modern Music" mesmerized me, and when he taught me how to play vinyl on a turntable, I put the headphones on, and was in awe. I'm now 46, and I am every bit as in love with Be-Bop Deluxe as I was, as a kid (if not more). They were so ahead of the curve, and remain criminally underrated. Bill, Charlie (RIP), Simon and Alex ... this guy still blares your genius on the daily, and I learned so much from all of you, when I became a musician. THANK YOU, BBD ... your genius will never die.

      Greetings from the United States. The band were never very popular in this country. But when I was in high school I was given the live album by someone who would won it from a radio station in a promotional event. She wasn’t interested in it and gave it to me without listening to it. I basically taught myself how to play drums playing along. It changed my life. For real. Cheers.

    Mr. Bill Nelson lyrics are beyond well thought out through a highly creative gray matter adding to the most outstanding best virtuoso that makes so many emotions flow through his Ax; From joyest whispers to screaming strings, from mellow love to thunderous roaring, from brilliant melodies to razor-sharp solos... I definitely cannot be more pleased that I was a teenager in the 70's and was turned on by a high school compadre in 1976. Be Bop Deluxe tunes are some of the best music to flow out onto ourselves and our planet...God Bless You and Thank You Mr. Bill Nelson.

      Very soon after that he changed to wearing drainpipe corduroys with white baseball boots which was way ahead (nearly everyone was still wearing flares) and I thought looked brilliant. Also, within the same year, 1976, Be- Bop changed their image to the city gents suits (Modern Music) which was very different at the time. But yes, those flares look painful now.
