ALL: Originality (was: Metallica)

[Richard Lockwood]

Are we not men?

We are New Wave.

Are we not New York New Wave?

We are Art Rock.

Nothing truely original - although a big spin on old stuff - I just got hold
of a copy of Q:Are We Not Men? this week after mine went missing some ten
years ago.  F***ing top album - and original in its own way, but it still
doesn't fulfill the criterion.

Cheers,

Rich.
