Alan Moore once said that the best thing about having a large (and expensive) comic collection is that one day you could sell it and sail round the world on the proceeds. I'm sure the same thing applies to records and CDs, which is always a happy thought. Oh, and Nick Hornby's "High Fidelity" burns on a bonfire just as easily as any other book. Anyway, on with the contention - NO "White Room" (like "Sgt. Pepper", it's a grossly over-rated platter from bona fide geniuses) NO Massive Attack (dull, only one tune) NO Portishead (even duller, glorifies smoking) NO New Order (Ian Curtis did not die for this) NO Brian Eno (inexcusably worked with U2) NO Depeche Mode (wouldn't miss them if they'd never existed) NO Moby (just because) On the other hand - YES "Music Has the Right to Children" (long forgotten summers played on the flute) YES D J Shadow (let's forget about the dodgy UNKLE) YES Orb (apart from "Pomme Fritz") YES Chemical Brothers (one of them won a JAMs/KLF competition when they were only 14, in 1987) YES Derrick May (also for his work with Altern-8, the tiny prankster children of Bill and Jimmy) YES Bjork (then there's at least one woman on this newsgroup) YES Aphex Twin (just because) Comments, please! John Not wrong, ever
