Somehow, I completely missed the band Wire during my formative music-listening years. Since the late 1970s, they have been a huge influence on other musicians.
Not long ago, a friend sent me a copy of Pink Flag, which I enjoy tremendously.
In 2008, the band released a new album called Object 47, which has garnered positive reviews.
Until we obtain a copy of Wilson Neate's forthcoming book on Wire (part of Continuum's 33-1/3 series), check out the albums we own and take a quick look at these links:
