First watched zz on the old grey whistle test, and was lucky enough to see them in Texas, good choice.
They are big fans of Orchestral manoeuvres in the dark, a little snippet of a Andy McClusky interview.
I would love to do something with Gary Numan. I would love to have Billy Gibbons play on one of our records. Some people find that a bit strange, but I would! [In the past, Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top has commented that seeing OMD on The Old Grey Whistle Test, where ZZ Top also appeared, inspired his band to incorporate synthesizers into their work.]
When I first watched them on ogwt I just thought they was amazing, totally different to everything I was listening to back then, world wide Texas tour was incredible, amazing catalogue and distinctive.
Just enjoyed Peter Broderick's latest release of songs - Blackberry - he's got into quite a nostalgic song writing mode but it fits in well in between his more ambient works.

Superb Album
I think it's the best thing they have done, every track is great.
Thanks for the reminder.
