I'm pretty sure it was Audities member Steve Schnee who turned me onto these
guys in 1993. Their disc is called Wet Money, and it's really good stuff,
similar to the Rubinoos in that it has wonderfully precise,
traditional-styled harmonies, but less youthful in spirit. One song on the
CD, "Heroes Are So Easily Replaced" was one of my favorite songs of 1993,
and still brings tears to my eyes everytime I hear it.
Of course, had I been present at the meeting where the band decided to call
themselves The Rock Club, I might have asked "are you sure you don't want to
rethink that decision, boys?". :-)

Take Care,
David (who could use a good, happy cry so he's put on The Rock Club CD).
