"One of the seminal figures of new wave, Adam Ant (born Stuart Leslie Goddard) had several distinct phases to his career. Initially, he explored a jagged, guitar-oriented post-punk with his group Adam and the Ants before giving way to a more pop-oriented, glam-tinged musical direction that brought him to the top of the charts. After that had run its course, he refashioned himself as a mainstream singer, which enabled him to stretch his career out for a couple of years. Once it seemed that his musical career had evaporated, he made an unexpected comeback in the early '90s as an adult alternative artist."

Wow, born in 1954...wouldn't have guessed THAT!

Thanks for posting that EVH interview earlier. That guy is a total douchebag, albeit one of the best guitar player douchebags ever to have graced a stage. That makes me sick to think about, but whatever. I think EVH is on the edge of total emotional and physical collapse. He has totally self-destructed. I wonder what kind of cancer treatment he had. He makes it sound like he went to a witch-doctor or something. Probably did.
