The Luxuria albums were, IMHO, Devoto's best post-Magazine work. I have his solo album, Jerky Versions Of The Dream but to be honest, a lot of it is a bit weak to me. Luxuria, on the other hand, was just stunning stuff with HD at his lyrical best:
"Good evening, I am the madman in love with your daughter, we need to talk, just you and me."
"Our curious leader has such a lovely daughter,
we wash their feet and quench our thirst
with the same water."
If you have these albums and haven't listened to them for a while, dig them out and give them a spin, you won't be disappointed.

Hi Bob, sounds good, can't say I've ever heard the Luxuria albums - were they ever released on CD? I'm a "Secondhand Daylight" man myself - who isn't?
Today, I have been continuing revisiting a box of tapes. "Architecture and Morality", "The House of Love" (Fontana), and Floyd's "Meddle" and "Animals" since the sun was out - gone now.
