Carolina at Chapel Hill Lines: 29 You forgot to mention the art-funk-jazz fad exemplified by Shreikback and Material. My spine is the bass line. And you also forgot the quasi-folk-understated-jazz fad as exemplified by Weekend, The Gist, Young Marble Giants, and 10000 Maniacs. Searching for mister right. Both these genres have a lot to offer but seem limited to the bands whose names I've dropped. I have this theory about music I want to hear coming in 7 year cycles. If it holds there will be an exciting new sound real soon now. Think about 1963 - The Beatles make a new noise; 1970 - The King Crimson, Yes, Genesis, Gentle Giant axis tunes up; 1977 - Talking Heads, The Ramones, Television, Sex Pistols, Magazine, Elvis Costello; 1984 - ??? It hasn't happened yet. At least not here. Does anybody else remember Kew Rhone? Good tunes to you, George W. Sherouse "I wish I was somethin'. I wish I was good. I wish I was made of mahogany wood."
