Actually, the Art Bears album HOPES AND FEARS was the last Henry Cow album,
but the members decided to table it temporarily. Most of the members of Henry
Cow then recorded WINTER SONGS under the name The Art Bears. After WINTER SONGS
was released, they decided to release HOPES AND FEARS as an Art Bears album.

So, there definately is a strong link between the two bands, though I realize
that saying that they were exactly the same is certianly incorrect. I simply
was drawing a comparison between the two.
