And yes, I can hear the cries of dismay already: "Where's Kraftwerk / Depeche Mode / Thomas Dolby / Landscape / Visage / Our Daughter's Wedding / Nash the Slash / Thomas Leer / Yazoo / Logic System / Naked Lunch / Ultravox / Gina X / Yello / Silicon Teens........." I agree! if I had room, I would have included all of the above and more, but hey, I only had an hour! I'll do part two soon, I promise!
