Amazing band! Modern music is one of my fave albums ever. To bad that Bill went off guitar playing, he seemed so much more than most of the 70's players.

Some of Be Bop's best! got to see 2 shows from the Modern Music tour. Great, great stuff. Nelson is one of my heroes. Super tone, phrasing, and chops, not to mention songwriting. Heard Bill became disenchanted with the guitar hero thing and bailed after Modern Music into synth-electronic stuff (Drastic Plastic, Red Noise), which I did not dig as much. I could listen to Futurama, Sunburst Finish, and MM all day long.

Great band, every song from Modern Music is masterpiece, and then again, impossible to say why ...

Hear a guitar sing. A great song, want to find the modern music grouping played live and that'll make me feel great!

Hey Dennis, I saw them after that at Santa Monica when they headlined. We
got them back for (3) encoures, we where in the Orch.. Pit and got Bill go do: No Trains to Heaven for one of those Enc's.
They were GREAT that night!! MLC



Brill, love a bit of nostalgia. One of the best rock bands to never truly make it. Bill Nelson's guitar playing is almost unsurpassable. Axe Victim and Futurama are two of the best albums I have EVER heard. I thank my brother for playing them incessantly when I was but a mere stripling to have conditioned me to a big Be Bop D fan.
