I have been reading this group for a while but never posted to it. Hope this message makes it... I have a question about an old (?) group called "Young Marble Giants". Anybody ever heard about them? All I know is that they are Welsh women. I heard a couple of songs off of a tape and this is all the information I have. Any scoop you can give (e.g. discography) would be appreciated. Also, somebody asked if Yello (the correct spelling) and Art of Noise are the same. The answer is NO. Yello is fronted by some guy named Deiter Meier (or a variation thereof) and nowhere near as Top-40 as Art of Noise (who I actually enjoyed this summer at the New Music Seminar at the Palladium). For New York local band fans, a new place started last week in Chelsea that is a FREE showcase for new music. The owner is video taping each show (only open on Tuesday nights) which he hopes to broadcast on public access cable tv in the future to help local music get exposure. And finally, I heartily recommend Billy Bragg's new album. He has a band this time which may bother some people but I think it sounds groovy...and the lyrics are still the best. By the way, I'd like to add my support to whatever camp is arguing on the side of the Housemartins, etc. Good Band! Tamar
