I was listening to McClaren's Duck Rock just recently and nearly shat myself when I read the line-up: Personnel: Malcolm McLaren, David Birch (guitars), Gary Langan (harp), Anne Dudley (keyboards), Louis Jordan (percussion), Jonathan Jeczalik (Fairlight programming). I must have not been able to put two and two together back when I was a kid but I think this album counts as a lost Art of Noise artifact. Trevor Horn and Lol Creme were on KCRW a few weeks back flogging the new album but I can't say I was overly thrilled with what I heard. The interview may be up on their web site (www.kcrw.org, search the "morning becomes eclectic" section). paul
