I always thought that the Magazine album The Correct use of Soap was the most grown up, mature music. Great album. Still stands the test of time brilliantly. Thought it was great in 1980 and it’s still great in 2022. Those who know, know right. Well done Howard. Nice1 Sir. Very nice indeed. I thank you.

Francisco Vazquez totally agree - remember having the album in 1979 after swapping it with a school friend for my copy of All Mod Cons - think I won the deal

Great to hear people say how good that album was..I was into Stranglers and Pistols..then heard 'give me everything's and thought music had just gone up a gear!..but my mates didn't seem to pick up on it...public didnt pick up on it much either..became a cult thing I thought..now I read people leaving great comments about that album and I am so glad that there were people with ears and taste and not just me thinking it was great..I'm not mad! :D

I'm with you almost in totality, though, lyrically - albeit in a different style - Ray Davies is without parallel. But - Howard is certainly well ahead of 99% of what is and what has been.

I don't know too much about how the band were promoted back in the day , but perhaps just unlucky not to have been much bigger , they for one thing , were very ahead of their time ! You got to know that Magazine were one of Radioheads favourite bands !

I've just read elsewhere that one of his college lecturers had a friend called Andy Devoto and he liked the name, but it was actually Pete Shelley who told a couple of music journalists that was Howard's surname and he was happy to be stuck with it.
