Yes, had forgotten... wow... amazing production + songs, ZZTing at it's best.

4AD covered a lot of ground, in the early daze... Colourbox, Cocteau 
Twins, Michael Brook/Pieter Nooten have all been named... and 
Bauhaus, Wolgang Press, Dead Can Dance, This Mortal Coil...

Weird that no one seems to know this one, but I agree, very nice for 
repeated listenings...

Absolutely, I think this one is HUGE and amazes me still.


And how about...

John Foxx/Ultravox... though my faves are Metamatic + The Garden
Eno + Fripp (together and separately as artists)
SPK maybe?
