Hi!

I stumbled on an old Foxx video on YouTube, then found you. I didn't realise John was still going!

I was a fan as a kid, from early Ultravox through to the Golden Section. Got loads of vinyl in the loft somewhere...

Saw John on the Golden Section tour at the Hacienda, which, in my alcohol fuelled state, was wonderful.

Just booked the Barfly Birmingham gig, so maybe see some of you there?

I'll have to see what's John been up to all these years. Any recommendations of albums to listen to?

It's impossible to recommend one album to start with - but if you can get hold of a copy of Sideways (the most recent release) you'll get a fair idea of his work with Louis Gordon since 1997

And of course you need to experience Cathedral Oceans!!

And Tiny Colour Movies

And Nation 12

And Translucence... laugh

I was at a couple of Foxx gigs on the 83 tour too.

Hi Bradbury, welcome to the Forum!

Like everyone here says 'From Trash', 'Sideways' and CO3 is a great place to start.

Certainly regret not having been able to make it to The Hacienda or any gigs on The Golden Section tour.

Personally, it would have to be Tiny Colour Movies...
