    Capt Sensible and Rat Scabies smash it up

    It pains me to see instruments being smashed :(

    Good start to this documentary - seems more focussed on the music of the time rather than peoples opinions.

    John Foxx, another ex Ultravox. Hes made some Ambient music, the collaboration with Harold Budd is worth a listen.

    There was a remix of "It's going to be a fine day" in 1991 by Opus III. This lovely mental hippy girl I knew named Juno by her parents was friends of the performer who did the Opus III performance on TOTP. Anyway I met her one morning and she said she spent the night in a hotel with Liam from The Prodigy (about 1997). Absolutely mental yoke but the epitome of sound.
