I was a teenager in Argentina's darkest years when I bought their first album because I kew it was produced by Robert Fripp, and I was sort of fan of King Crimson. It sounded so weird at first that I said to myself 'What the hell is this...?' One of my best music purchases ever. I loved it so badly!

And I bought the first album in the UK, thinking they must be a Punk band. (I thought Roches must be short for cockroaches). Wow, did I get a beautiful surprise!

It's really sad that The Roches never seemed to come together with a television host good enough or even worthy enough to match their wit and cleverness. Having seen them in concert many times, and hearing their hilarious banter onstage, they certainly deserved better treatment than they often got on television.

@@carolsikkema7136 "Negative Nellie"? You want "negative," just read any page of Roches lyrics. If you can get past the crappy music, you won't get past the self-absorbed "Debbie Downer" lyrics. No wonder they never went anywhere. Like most self-absorbed people, they're a legend in their own mind.

The host, comedian George Miller was an old friend of Letterman's. He was dreadful, not funny at all.
