Mmm, that'll be me then.  Another disguise blown.  Damn.

I thoght Iain's top 10 crap bands was a good laugh, even if I don't quite 
agree with him on The Delgados, Bis or Arab Strap.  Most of the others do 
strike me as being no-talent chancers.  I kind of have a soft spot for Bis 
myself, even if the album wasn't much cop.  Some of the singles were fine 
P!O!P! tunes.  And I quite liked their version of "The Boy.." - it certain 
wasn't the worst thing on that album.  I change my mind on Arab Strap every 
time I listen.  I think your man is a bit of a scumbag, and yet I'm often 
intrigued for some reason.

Morrissey v Marr - I think that they've both lost it in recent times. 
 Southpaw Grammar was a completely godawful album, and I kind of gave up on 
him, while the second Electronic album was pretty poor stuff at times too. 
 I agree that Marr probably doesn't get his share of the credit for the 
Smiths stuff too, it's not just the wry and intelligent lyrics that I listen 
to them for at any rate.

I've often thought the same as Keith about Prince - he does stick out the 
odd fine tune, but there must be 5 or 6 duffers for every good one.  Does 
this make him a genius?  Not sure.

Have a nice weekend all
