No, mate, I remembered you like them, which is why I posted. It's
absolutely true. (Um, I could be wrong about the label but the release
is 100% straight up).

I have come to accept that Henry Cow/National Health/Slapp Happy/Art
Bears/Hatfield & The North etc are only grouped with HW *in my mind*.

If you're interested, Dr Strangely Strange have also got a new album
coming out. They maintain they never split, it just took 30 years to get
the 3rd album together, man!
