No way--this was at the same time that loud guitar music was
drifting into the charts again: Guns & Roses, Metallica were just starting
to get heard in the US. Say rather "no support from the the label" for
a band that had been dossing around for years and suddenly had a record
of "unknown origin".
I've always maintained that _Imaginos_ would have been huge if
there had been proper support and the band wasn't in space. I
woulda picked "I am the One" as the first single, though. What a monster
riff ...
Cheers,
Carl
