OK, Screamadelica was fantastic thanks to Andy Weatherall. Unfortunately suicide bomber chic (and their iffy Make Israel History comments - see http://www.theprimalscream.com/press/nme-15april06.html) are in my mind linked to their equally cliched rockist tendencies. Hawkwind's Urban Guerrilla is another matter, I loved that band when I was 15 and still have a great deal of fondness for them..https://www.blogger.com/profile/17026835814805695527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10131050.post-24825199535822532302008-07-10T09:45:00.000+01:002008-07-10T09:45:00.000+01:00Ted- I am very sorry!
