One of the best debut albums of the 80s?



Bit of a guilty pleasure but every song but one (Friends of Mine) a direct ripoff of Japan. Nick Rhodes even came out with a book of Polaroid photos after Sylvian did his.

Don't disagree! But I still listen to this much more than Japan. I always thought that the song Rio rips off Quiet Life. The drum beats are quiet unusual but identical on both songs...

Ooh, I'll have a listen to those later.

There's also a Duran song that VERY MUCH copies a Roxy Music bass riff. Can't think which one, for the time being....
