Making friends around the globe
Well, that might be pushing the envelope...but for this fangirl, it was definitely a moment to squee.

I had an email yesterday from a London based musician called Jer Randall. Jer and his brother Chris are the boys behind the songs and music in the 2001 movie Phoenix Blue starring, you guessed it, my current actor, James Murray.

Because of my interest in the film, I had tried to find a soundtrack for it, but drew a blank, other than snippets of Steven Parson's lovely intrumentals, a solo video clip and one single cd of Tailspin(through Amazon), by Jer and Chris plus their band Widescreen. Other than ripping the music off the soundtrack, there appeared to be no other avenue to hear the music sans movie.

Then yesterday I get a brief email from Jer himself. Apparently he read my review of the single on Amazon and got in touch with me.

I didn't believe it at first...but he wrote back and directed me to his myspace site..

where there is some of his more recent work. How cool is that!!

Now I can add Jer to my list of backroom boys that I've been in contact with since my Primeval fandom jumped into high gear. I've 'talked' via forum and LJ with Steven Savile, author of the first Primeval tie-in book, chatted on myspace with one of the lads in the publicity department for Primeval S2, and now made contact with Jer Randall....only two degrees of separation from Primeval through James Murray/Phoenix Blue.

It's a small world....
