Copeland is an award winning sound track composer!

And Summers has done some pleasant jazzy stuff and some noodley bollicks with Fripp - nothing you really need to trouble yourself with but hardly cross Minsk.

(Edit - that should have read criminal :))

Both have written entertaining memoires.
I've been talking about writing a book - 25 years of TEFL - for a few years now. I've got it in me.

I like that whole album - it’s a beauty. I really like Copeland’s Klark Kent stuff too. The lyrics are pretty stupid but I think they’re supposed to be. Looking back at it now it seems like Jumpy good natured Dad rock. Right up my alley.

That Copeland / Ridgway track is indeed great; from one of my favourite Coppola movie, Rumblefish. Neat Tom Waits cameo!

I L-U-V love that stuff!

The "Collected Works" CD has an unreleased song or two that are quite good!
