>> I'm a big Gang Of Four fan and had similar reservations about the new line up for exactly the same reasons. However after seeing the new line up last years I can honestly say I'm very happy with the new rhythm section. Thomas McNiece especially has added a new dimension to the old songs with his bass playing addding more of a slightly funky edge to the sound. I've yet to digest the new songs and I'd expect that to be the acid test. I'm currently dealing with the death of my dad at weekend so the new CD will have to wait until I get my head back in one piece - which may take some time.
