I hope it is just my imagination. Ray Davis AT&T Information Systems Laboratories Denver {ihnp4|hogpc}!druxy!bees (303)538-3991 Aren't you being being a bit categorical on TWO counts? As far as I know, "disco" and "new wave" have always overlapped some, to the extent that either can be defined at all. Is Cher "punk"? Is New Order "disco"? Is Heaven 17 "soul"? Is X "country and western"? Is U2 "power pop"? Is Killing Joke "heavy metal"? Is your imagination "stunted"? --- Michael Turner (ucbvax!ucbesvax.turner)
