Thread Name: BS: Gordon Bok
Subject: RE: BS: Gordon Bok
I've been a fan of Gordon's (Carol too) since I was a baby. My parents would play his soma-like voice so I might fall asleep. Actually it made me pretty much manic as hell so they decided to play Bill Haley's "Rock Around The Clock" over and over---and over and over---and over again. As a rusult I couldn't get to sleep at all. I'll be 59 years old on my next birthday and I've not slept at all since those far off days when Gordon's voice kept me awake. I can still remember those wet diapers and the interesting aroma. Don't get me wrong, ANOTHER LAND MADE OF WATER is still one of my favorites. I know Kevin Kostner stole the idea for his epic flop film WATERWORLD, but that's another story. Even though I love Gordon's music, please have him come in here and tell us what the hell ANOTHER LAND is all about. It's the least he could do for those of us who have learned to love it like Dr. Strangelove learned to love the bomb.

Love to him and Carol,
