Jem's New Blog

[DueyC]

Aren't you egg-cited too?

Be(ak)ause I comb-ed the blog and saw the news

Well (blog)spotted, Julie.

It's great to see Jem upbeat again in the inimitable Godfrey style. However, the bit about

For the last 10 years I've done a lot of pop and a lot of rock. I've had a load fun and did ok from it. However, I feel like I need a break from all that now. I'm fresh out of love and ideas.

does seem to confirm that we're not going to get a whole lot of Frost* in 2011. Thank Godfrey 2010 was such a corker...

Don't you think that quote means that he's tired of doing everything BUT frost?
Pop and Rock are the things he produces. I'm sure Frost is an entity primarily outside of those endeavors.

The new DVD project and the autumn tour are pencilled-in...that's already more Frost* than we have a right to expect.
Let's not fret.

And according to the review of the London gig in the last CR Presents Prog, a new album too......

Yes, I did a bit of a double-take when I read that too...  Do they know something we don't?! 8-)

I assumed that the reviewer had a talk with Jem and this tidbit of info was passed on that way.

But of course until the man himself says anything it's all circumcisi... circumstantial I mean.

I thought that this was "old news" from December and quickly overtaken by events ( which is quite common in the Frost* world)

K.I.T.T./K.A.R.R. scenario?  :lol:

Perhaps the Rockfield (or wherever) DVD and (possible) CD version (limited release or not) could be interpreted as a new "album"? :?

Couple of interesting things in Jem's latest blog.

Totally agree with the John Barry comments.  As a kid I had the soundtrack of The Black Hole and LOVED it.  I always thought it was a better work than some of his acclaimed Bond soundtracks but who wants to admit to liking the music to a Disney cash-in on Star Wars?  :oops:  But now Jem's admitted it, guess I can too!

And a writing session with JM in prospect - fantastic.  Hope they have fun - and manage to get something done in-between the inevitable messing about!  :lol:

John Barry was a hero in my books. I'm sucker for good movie soundtracks and he just nailed it every time.

Jem's blog seems to have been set to private.....

Anyone else having problems looking at it?

[DwDunphy]

Yup. I tried checking it today and was blocked.

I'm starting to take this personally! :shock:

I noticed that this morning, too. Ah, well. His prerogative.
