A is a rather trad BCB list that I can't get that excited about despite some nice picks, and I feel a bit the same about B which begins well but ends badly, and which feels all a bit middle aged. Nice to see people finally getting Terry Callier after a few of us had been proselytising on his behalf for years.
C is like something from The Bizarro Cup.

How can anyone include the majesty of Chic's At Last I Am Free with the fucking wombles, Spice Girls and Freddie and the Dreamers? It screams 'wacky' and I hate that. Of the other two A is the only one I can get with.....

Let U be the set of all united sets, K be the set of the kids and D be the set of things divided.
Then it follows that ∀ k ∈ K: K ∈ U ⇒ k ∉ D

I've been talking about writing a book - 25 years of TEFL - for a few years now. I've got it in me.

A & C


A is is another fine list with very nice Syd, Who, Chris Bell!!! and Flamin' Groovies picks. C carries it away with the Wipers! one of the few ways of making me overlook the Spice Girls.

A's more solid straight through while C has a few suspect tracks.

Well that's the understatement of the year! It seems to be getting away with it though. It's an interesting strategy to play the "I'm a bit mad me" card. I'm curious to see how this goes.
