TRANQUILITY-- Their first great lp from 1972 is finally on cd!
If you love superb layers of pop harmony
vocals, I highly recommend you pick this up.
This band made two excellent albums. Lets
hope the second gets released too.
BRAHMAS----TRY BABY Another great Spanish power pop band. I would put
this right up there with
Zinedines and Carrots!
THE DAY TRADERS--- More great US pop. They used to be called The Dent.
This is basically
the same band under a new name.
LUND BROTHERS----Tangents This band has a singer that really sounds
alot like Robin Zander at times.
This
band used to be called INTERNATIONAL POP OVERTHROW, and
before
that LOSER... Good, good, stuff
ED JAMES----Big Time The long awaited 3rd release is here!
Available from all good pop venders!
THE RINGLES----Take a ride The long awaited 2nd release from
this Illionios psych-pop band!
Again,
available from all good pop venders!
