I think the album 'I' might be worth another listen. I was never that into it at the time but have a feeling it might be more interesting now than it seemed then. '69' I've always liked, along with their EP, 'Lolita', both of which I still think signalled a far more imaginative take on the whole Sonic Youth thing than was the case with what was coming out from bands like MBV. I seem to recall that there was a vague cynicism towards AR Kane (mostly within the music press at the time) with suggestions that they were a kind of industry-manufactured British noise band. That may or may not have been the case but, like The Monkees, they often made far better music than the supposedly 'real' thing. IMO.
