i see what you mean but everybody should at least own the Glasgow School, which compiles Orange Juice's early stuff...they were just compositional geniuses. It was before they went in for the generic 80's pop production...and it sounds so impromptu and emotionally heartfelt...you can hear it in modern bands
There was so much diversity (in the UK alone) back then, so much ambition in the wake of punk's deconstruction of music...what have we got now? *grumble grumble*
