JF was brought to my attention at Birminghams halcyon-days Rum Runner by Nick Rhodes,as he spun Quiet Men during his DJ sets.I of course asked repeated playings.Followed JF since then.Can I observe that My Lost City is taken from the F.Scott Fitzgerald essay,and the white-shirt profile shot of JF in the Glimmer booklet mirrors a Twenties portrait of FSF.On the DD connection,the formative Rhodes,Taylor,Stephen Duffy line-up rehearsed not 200 yards from where I type this.Duffy was/is a FSF man and quoted extensively from his works in The Devils. Just recalled I first saw JF on OGWT with Ultravox!How did I forget?! Don

Dunno if you've seen this book - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Duran-Unseen-Pau...33664966&sr=1-3 It says Duran Duran on the front, but most of the book is photographs of people from the Rum Runner scene in the late 70s - you may be in there!

I also have great memories of the eighties' clubbing scene in Birmingham, though I began going after Nick Rhodes's DJing days. The Rum Runner was still going though, but I never went. I regret that now.
