Not to go too far afield but I have to add my whole hearted agreement to Lazlo's assesment. Although "Stab" is no "Lexicon of Love" it does have its moments, most notably "S.O.S." and "If I ever Thought You'd Be Lonely". Polygram did a great job remastering it this year and, news, this year we will see "How To BE A Millionaire" and "Alphabet City" from Polygram UK as well.

That P.I.L. album was called "Happy?"
