[kj] Post Punk

[Alexander Smith]

That's because the Stranglers -- who I love more than several members 
of my immediate family -- were a beast all their own. They were lumped 
in with the Punks, but really had precious little in common beyond 
that. And if Peter and others are so hung up about the Ramones long 
hair, check out Dave Greenfield (long hair *AND* facial hair).

God Bless the Stranglers.
