@simonmoon - I quite liked BeBop Deluxe in the mid-70's - even got some nice photos of Bill Nelson in his white suit and slick hair from a show in San Francisco in 1976 or so - I liked Red Noise as well. I think their biggest setback was that Bill was just not the strongest songwriter in the world; he had some good ones to be sure, but I thought it was a relatively small percentage of the overall output compared to many of that time.
