hey, i commented here once. damn, it disappeared. okay, once again, thanks for the recommendations, will be checking out at least a few of these. Good to see a few names I recognize here, and some stuff other folks have recommended to me. And the Red Crayola, just cuz I didn't know they were doing anything and it inspired me to digitize their first record. I think Mayo & Richard are the real Thompson Twins.
