I would better translate it as "acknowledge them". The Human Switchboard album, for instance - that's something that could have perfectly been on your post-punk/new wave radar... ![]()

You know, I might consider it. I just don't go for the hard sell. And just a wee bit of "acknowledge me" is in there as well. Addendum after the initial draft: Okay, I just read the bass player of 8-Eyed Spy and the Raybeats was one of their members. Now I'm really interested, actually and will give it a listen one of these days. |

Who's Landing In My Hangar? lists three bass players, none of whom were actually bandmembers. According to the liner notes on the original LP, which I've had for ages and recently "rediscovered" (I didn't remember it being so manic at times! Also, you can't tell by the picture I posted, but the background is ultra silvery shiny... Mmmmhh...), "They always had problems. Every time they came [from Cleveland] to town [New York], and every time we talked on the phone, I'd hear about [...] the trouble of finding the right fourth member for three people who had been together through so much that they really weren't like anybody else anymore".

Yeah, George Scott actually died the year before they released that LP. But he was still involved in the production I gather? Listings are a bit vague from what I can tell. |

No, but there is a dedication that I think is for him: "In memory of the Big Guy".

To me, they were one of those bands that without reinventing the wheel end up sounding unique anyway. Christgau gave them a rave review at the time... Quote:
...and mentioned them again in this 1988 SPIN chat with Gerard Cosloy of Homestead Records (and later of course of Matador fame), ostensibly about Daydream Nation and Royal Trux's debut: Quote:
The LP was reissued this year by Fat Possum.

Gorgeous album. And the 2CD edition makes it even more so. (Not just sayin' it because you liked Human Switchboard).
