I am most certainly considering dismantling my Wire collection.  I have just
about everything in one form or another.  I'm starting to think this whole
business of being a completist is nonsense.  I got rid of my old U2 and
Morrissey stuff and now I'm starting to think that I should get going with
the bad Wire stuff.  Why listen to music because of who's involved?  I should
only listen to something if it SOUNDS good.  Sound.  That's it.
What's better?  Autechre or Bruce?
