Clearly this social flux consisted more of motion than of movement. The women's liberation movement may turn out to be profoundly epochal, but neither it nor any other trend gripped or provoked the nation as did, say, the now quiescent civil rights crusade. Surely no single label or slogan could possibly embrace such a diffuse drama, and efforts to encapsulate these times in a single-shot insight have been quite unconvincing...
...problem is that there's no real Hall and Oates sound. Not many groups can switch from a country, acoustic sound on an album like Past Times Behind to the futuristic, electronic rock of Bigger than the Both of Us. And perhaps that constant state of flux explains why Hall and Oates have never attracted a massive, fanatic following. They have some characteristic sounds; they can play formula pop or experimental rock, but not everyone likes their use of different styles of music.

New techniques, such as sandblasting, silk-screen painting, laminating and the use of epoxy resins, enable artists to achieve subtle tactile and visual effects. Even so, stained glass demands infinite patience; a single lamp shade may be composed...
