hawks/fantasy

[ejobson]

Sorry guys but it's all about opinions.

I only rated Nik early days, Harvey I don't rate as a singer or bassist but
actually thought he fitted well into the Hawklords and '79 line ups. Danny,
Paul Rudolph and Bridgett, na!

Albums, no didn't like Electric Teppee, Bring me the Head or Zones. Sonic
Attack and ASAM both had some good songs but as complete albums were
dissapointing. Even Dave slated Astounding Sounds.

And what's wrong with Electric Tepee? Even ASAM is a good album (not
fantastic, but not bad either)? I also thought Bridget Wishart was quite
good.
