Speaking of The Chameleons

Postby Grunch » Sat Sep 04, 2004 3:22 am

Who is a Chameleons fan??? What about their various side-projects, Mark Burgess solos, Invincible, Sun and The Moon, John Lever, The Reegs, Covenant, their excellent live shows now on DVD?

Sure would have loved to catch them in concert, I still hope for a North American tour again.

For me, this band has done nothing but GREAT music since their inception. And if you are a Chameleons fan, do you know about Wonky Alice?? How about Snake Corps??

Is Red Sun an online store or local to your area? "The Great Escape" sells regularly on EBay for between 50-100 dollars.

Amazing concerts those were in '02.

Invincible is a rather good Burgess fronted band, released not too long before the Chameleons announced their reunion in the late 90's.

As for them to work together as such....keep your fingers crossed.

Big Chameleons fan. Would love to get Script of the Bridge on cd. Less Than Human has always been my favorite tune of theirs.

Got to agree with Grunch about the Chameleons and all of their offshoots and solo works. I just got Wonky Alice and it is great stuff. If you like the Chameleons, you will like Wonky Alice.

Hey Swampy, Red Sun does have an online shop and it is fille

Red Sun has tons of pretty hard to find stuff, they take paypal, and they ship pretty quickly. That's where I found my Great Escape, plus they sell Invincible, Mark Burgess solo stuff, John Lever (Chameleons drummer), lots of cool stuff, The Sound, Adrain
