I'm not sure what your point is though. I was referring somewhat to the point where these New Wave bands started playing to the bleachers and going for radio play over artistic sensibility. The Heads...

Can't agree about the Car's post-Panorama work - I want to like it, but I can't. Admittedly, it might just be oversaturation - those later records got heavy radio play. After Panorama though, it was...

Since you like ELO, I will back off on my Styx comments. Being an ELO fan (and especially a Boomtown Rats fan!) I know what it's like to get dumped on. I like pure pop too.

If you want to state...

[QUOTE=kriswright;1500695]It'd be a lot easier to agree with this if "Cosmic Thing" and "Little Creatures" weren't such fantastic pop albums.

Well I do think Devo's second (and best) album is a bit underrated. They kinda sold out after that. Like a lot of New Wave bands, they started out fairly edgy and then got all their edges sanded off...

For me personally, music by Supertramp and 10CC holds up a lot better than Styx. To paraphrase the bunny - Styx is for kids.

I guess you could consider 'Dream Police' a prog pop album, but I...

Supertramp and 10CC are equally good and it is worth checking out their albums because they tended to make themed records, almost like 70's Prog-Pop. Not a huge genre, but a good one. Most of the...

Gosh I never thought any of my antagonisms would be generational but there you go. People must be more enlightened about 70's music now. I guess I should have said something more specific, like The...
