Sorry Keith! LOL. I hope you're feeling better now.
I took to my bed, but I'm getting over it slowly!

Not my cup of tea at all, but I can appreciate that they were doing something interesting and creative that people dig, unlike the lightweight euro pop crap of New Order. Awful sound, terrible lyrics, weedy vocals...No thanks!

Phew! I've got enough karma to burn without a demise due to a surfeit of Soft Machine as well!

Tom Waits (sorry, I know he's talented but he's nails on a chalkboard to me)
Elvis Costello (ok, the first 3 albums are tolerable but sometimes I'm just like "Man, SHUT UP already!")
I can listen to Leonard Cohen for hours though, and have a seemingly endless tolerance for sloppy epic Dead jams....soooo....no accounting for taste?

Post 'Autobahn' I concur. But before they soared with flutes, guitars and beatific soul... (IMO!)

As the person who started this thread and then posted:
"LOL! It's all subjective and this is not a serious thread. Good man :-)))"
you're very po-faced when it comes The Beatles, aren'tcha?
