"With A-Z, Newman takes the post-rock robotic structure and aesthetics of Wire to its logical conclusion drawing on the expressionist psychodrama of Robert Wyatt, the futurism of Brian Eno and the psychedelia of Syd Barrett in the process.

"Charming, quirky and cheeky - not all the humour hit, but when it did, it made for an enjoyable ride of an album and one that felt quite unique." Reply

"I got this album when it came out in 2000. I was already a Paul Simon fan through my dad, and I fell in love with this album pretty hard. That basically meant listening to it alone in my room for a good stretch. I've come back to it many times and always thought it was great. I felt like it didn'..." [+] Reply
"I see it more as a compilation in the same way as magical mystery tour is. An ep with singles. It's status is improved so much by these singles.rare case that I recommend the compilation over the genuine article." Reply
"Mike Scott was faltering here already, but there are still some great mixes of poetry and music like A Man is in Love and How long Will I Love You?" Reply
