Man, I forgot to thank you for all the recs. Will be putting those all on my look-for list next time I go music hunting. Also really dug your post where you listed the whys of your favorites--now that was neat. It's cool imo to see not just what we all like, but what particularly connected the music to us at various points in our lives.
Re: Don't ask Mel about Depeche Mode...LOL!
In short, nifty :D
