74/75 Sparks I'll agree with. Early Sparks were less so although I've been a fan of their Do-Re-Mi since the early 70's. Good shout on pre-"let's write songs to suit Ferry's crooning" Roxy.

Always loved the lines:
The cops are out, they're running about
Don't know if they'll ever be able to block Buster out
He's gotta be caught, he's gotta be taught
'Cause he's more evil than anyone here ever thought
Maybe she's born with it, maybe it's Maybelline.

Non mihi, non tibi, sed nobis.

Always a huge disconnect between girls screaming at Russell, without the faintest idea of how utterly profound the lyrics to some of the songs were

Songs about suicide, abortion and child abduction on Kimono and Propaganda never struck me as glam !

You sound a lot like a mate of mine who I saw Sparks with a few times that I lost contact with. You don't support Leyton Orient do you?

Nah, but I'd chat a glass eye to sleep on Sparks given half a chance.

Nothing wrong with that. My cousin got me into them when Kimono My House came out. I would've been around 9 or 10. I've seen them a few times down the years, most recently at the Hackney Ocean. I suppose that was probably 10 years ago now.

A sad end to Norman 'Dinky' Diamond's life, Sid. I believe he was having problems with his neighbours and committed suicide.
