I remember a club I went to in the 80's use to play King Crimson's "Sleepless" a lot. Great song, great band!!

In 1980 Dave Edmunds did a duet with Carlene Carter called "Baby Ride Easy" which became a big country hit. It wasn't new wave, it was pure C&W, but it's one of the few C&W I actually like.

Fleetwood Mac's ''Tusk''was influenced enough from a minimalistic new wave sound mainly because of Lindsey Buckinham.Songs like ''what makes you think you are the one'' and ''ledge''have a senseof ''industrial''experimentation.Also Renaissance in ''camera

That Alice Cooper "Flush the Fashion" record is great! Anyone know if it was ever on CD? The Kinks kinda got into the act with the "Low Budget" LP I thought.

"Young Turks" by Rod Stewart is a great choice! I'd like to add "Trouble" by Lindsey Buckingham and "Dancin'" by Chris Isaak.

I love "Clones" by Alice Cooper. One of the greatest songs ever. Funny but it goes great with a compilation with the Buggles on it. Other songs:

Don Henley - Johnny Can't Read
John Waite - Missing You
Fleetwood Mac - Little Lies
Heart - There's T

It would be really cool if they came out with a compilation of all of these songs with 12" extended versions. I'd buy it right away. Alex? Jason?

Here's a suggestion for the title "No Wave". [;)]
