I'll do another one soon, but myirwin's got the next one... [8D]

I'm not sure it's so much that "others know more", rather than "others know different"...

The album vs. radio thing is a good point, and though I can say I know lots of album tracks, the actual artists that I listened to were, for the most part, more of the mainstream new wave artists. This was mainly due to where I lived in the farmlands of A
