I have a discussion question about the new TRANS AM "Futureworld" LP: Is it an homage to Kraftwerk's COMPUTERWORLD? a parody of it? is it (partly) an homage to CAMEO ("word up?"). is it all or none of these things? I can't quite figure it out. All I know is that sometimes it makes me laugh out loud , while simultaneously fullfilling my need to "rock out" gcbv gcbv@yahoo.com "Gee, I'm real sorry your mom blew up Ricky" _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

It's the missing link between Van Halen & Bochum Welt. I love it. -d.w.
