It's gone very quiet!
A resumé, perhaps? Vinty identified the Serge Gainsbourg album Bonnie & Clyde and alluded to the relevant track therefrom.
mercs identified Huddersfield composer Gordon Dyson's Chanson d'Apres-Midi
... so we need a similarly-titled piece by Turnage, which will get us to the B in question.
Now, I'm off to bake some bread. Now; what shall I use? Strong white? Self-raising? Wholemeal? Oh No! They've all gone off![FONT=Comic Sans MS][I][B]Numquam Satis![/B][/I][/FONT]Comment

Gosh, where is everybody?
Turnage - Two Baudelaire Songs: 1. Harmonie du soir; 2. L'invitation au Voyage
Baudelaire - 11th track on "Bonnie and Clyde," a collaboration album by Serge Gainsbourg and Brigitte Bardot.
Charles Baudelaire wrote the words to Chanson d'Après-midi http://www.englishtenor.co.uk/Dyson.htm
How about a C from Vinny? Cheers!

I hope people do want to play still. I suspect Callibs is jet-lagged. Subby is lurking, Norfy is grumpy. It doesn't leave too many oldies.Originally posted by ferneyhoughgeliebte View Post
High time we had some new blood. Is there anybody out there....???
This isn't a closed shop - everyone can associate here.
But I've been hogging things recently. Perhaps Vinny could Collaborate as he really did crack the last one?Pacta sunt servanda !!!Comment
