Given that your specialist subject is obviously 80's indie I find your choice of James's later more AOR albums quite surprising. Would've thought Stutter and Strip Mine would be the 80's indie connoisseur's James albums of choice. Nice to see House Of Love in the mix, looking forward to seeing them in Manchester in April.
