I will say one last thing about Meatloaf - my original irritation in 
regard to Mark Latham's stated preference for the work of said artiste 
is that Meatloaf only put out 2 albums over a 20 odd year period.
Granted Bat Out Of Hell was one the biggest sellers ever and the 'follow 
up' polluted the airwaves donkey's years later,
But its impossible to name an artist with only 2 albums as 'your 
favourite' unless you have an extremely limited attention span or are 
some kind of masochist. So there is not much to base a thesis around, 
unless Mr. Loaf is used as an icon of some sort of err, lets be kind and 
say 'becoming'- however I could be proven wrong (as I have been more 
than once in the last 24 hours...).
