Wow, as a teenager I played propaganda and kimono over and over. Between
those two and Mott and The Hoople albums those were pretty much in my stereo
for a year.
I recently picked up Lil' beethoven and young lovers, but have never
listened to the 80's stuff. Which would you recommend, whomp or angst to
start?
Cheers,
Gary
