	Hugh Cornwell, to some might be considered an antithesis of prog, having lead one of the most successful punk bands of the 70's the Stranglers. However, ask him (if it is not too late), what was his first reaction when clapped up in HM Prison, when he heard the Stranglers had done a concert with Robert Fripp, Peter Hammill and Steve Hillage guesting, and in his name? While showing he could stand alone as a musician, the Nosferatu album with (former Beefheart drummer?) Mr Williams, suggests an interest in late 60's rock, e.g. with a good but somewhat deconstructed version of Cream's White Room - so was/is there a love hate thing with "dinosaur rock"?
