\"Devo<\/a>Before we get started, I want to draw your attention to the Tag Cloud<\/em> at the bottom of the page. While not scientific, I think it is an interesting display. It makes me wish I would have developed some system at the beginning and followed it all the way, then the Tag Cloud could be used to guage my musical tastes and influences. As it is, it makes for a pretty good approximation. The bigger the tittle, the more overall impact. I wish I would have taken snapshots <\/em> of it along the way to capture the evolution. Oh well maybe next time.<\/p>\n

Now back to Devo. I got both Freedom Of Choice<\/em> and New Traditionalists<\/em> at the same time.\u00a0 Like Adam And The Ants, Devo had some heavy percussion but where Adam And The Ants went with a twangy guitar, Devo went synthesizers. I’m listening to Ton O’ Luv<\/em> as I write this and I can’t help but think that Devo might have evolved intoBlue Man Group.Trade in those red flower pots for blue heads.<\/p>\n

Freedom of Choice just came on and this really could have been an Adam And The Ants <\/em> song. Reallly, go back to the Adam And The Ants post and see for yourself.<\/p>\n
