I think "Everybody is a Star.." has some of the happiest bleepy, filtery lines on it that I've yet to hear. It is happy and funky without being sappy or just insipid or disposable rave-crap, at least the 6 tracks on that LP that I like. I wasn't too interested in the green LP that came after it. I remember when the 12" with [?old Soft MAchine lead singer] came out (94?), I thought they lost a lot of their originality. Solenoid solenoid@europa.com <------+
