  • I LOVE THIS GUY <3

  • help, looking for 'Suvasini' off 'On A Blue Wing' Let me know if you can post it.

  • Bill Nelson. The under recognized, incomparably gifted, under appreciated, unbelievably talented, ultimate guitarist. The man is a genius that can simply play anything he wants to. My only wish is that he still played the Yamaha sometimes.

    Rock on Mr. Nelson.

  • @JeffersonianDem Absolutely..the guy is a gifted legend, under appreciated, EXTREMELY talented...the scope and breadth of his work is immense, and impossible to collect all of it!!

  • really good stuff - live improvised Nelson - excellent

  • How cool is Bill?

    Massive Fan here.

  • I went to see Be Bop Deluxe back in the 1970s at The Odeon in Birmingham UK , during the release of the Album Sunburst Finish. They still rate for me as one of the best bands I have ever seen. I remember, they had four encores, during the last one, I think they just pretty much made it up as they went along, a real jamming? session & it was stunning. Bill Nelson is a fantastic guitarist & song writer, in my book, one of the all time greats.

  • I worked at the Odeon Birmingham as a stage tech. I remember working on 2 Be Bop Deluxe gigs and a Red Noise gig. Wonderful stuff and Bill must be one of the most under rated guitarists in the world. A true genius and all round nice bloke. Check out his site for current info.

  • Don't know if you know but the voice and the words are from Charles Bukowski, an incredible American writer who died in 1994.

  • I wonder if Thomas Dolby was aware of these performances at the time since his Sole Inhabitant tour looks very similarly done, obviously different equipment!

  • Such an artist, such a song, impro!!

    BILL NELSON, such amazing.

    Thanks cerebralhumor, you´ve got a great brain and of course idea(s).
