My favorite part of that debacle was in a story in SPIN at the time. NMA were denied entry to the US due to 'no artistic merit'. And SPIN editorialized; AND THIS FROM THE PEOPLE WHO LET VENOM IN THE COUNTRY. Bahahha

And NMA wondered why they couldn’t get into the US . .

Agreed on 51st State. By a mile.

So, the general consensus on America
would be that it is a nebulous track?

NMA's "51st State" was still - to my mind -- a hundred times more
pointed than "America,"
which was pretty much just filled with fanciful projections ("a silver
dollar for every child"???), regardless of who its intended audience was.

I don't think that Americans were the intended audience for America, they
were preaching to an already 'converted' European audience. Britain already
being the 51st State.

NMA's 51st State was aimed at Brits, not Americans (IMO)
