 Aw, c'mon Geir, you MUST know he founded Style Council in 1983 and wrote 
 some *excellent* stuff for them .... just listen to Headstart for 
 Happiness, Ghosts of Dachau, The Piccadilly Trail, Bloodsports, Boy Who 
 Cried Wolf  and many many more. No I won't let you get away with that 
 statement. 
 Besides he wrote one of his best songs with the Jam in 1981, that is 
 Tales from the Riverbank (aka We've only started).
