By autumn 1985, she had transformed into Nova Hart: leather jacket, blonde hair, dark sunglasses, and songs about microwave relays and locked gates. Her Japanese fans were stunned. Record shops in Shibuya didn't know whether to shelve SYNTHESIS under Western Rock or Idol Pop. I still have the 1984 'Sparkle Soda' 7-inch single. The contrast with 'Threshold' is mind-bending. -- Rodrigo Okonkwo | rokonkwo@cmu.edu PGP Key fingerprint: 8950 A845 0226 F13C "Keep the channels open."

Please scan that 7-inch cover! Is she wearing the blonde bob in the 1984 photos too?
