First me, being silly:
<<Wasn't Fotomaker on Atlantic? Hell, I'm surprised they haven't been voted
into the Rock and Roll Hall O'Fame, along with other life-affirming WEA acts
such as The Atlantics, Firefall, the Paley Brothers and The Rembrandts....>>
Then Bruce, big-time Atlantics fan:
<<As a fan of the band(well, they are from Boston my hometown), I must
clarify a most incredibly *important*, life revealing point(sic), they were on ABC
Records, which went out of business a few weeks after the record came out.>>
Finally B. Holmes, part-time French instructor:
<<Au contraire, mon frere...I have the first two Fotomaker albums in front of
me and it's the common Atlantic label and logo.>>
Bill, mon ami, I think--no, actually, I'm CERTAIN---that Bruce was speaking
of The Atlantics, not Fotomaker. And yes, as the Esteemed Mr. Brodeen and a
previous poster pointed out, the Atlantics' BIG CITY ROCK album was, in fact,
released on ABC and not Atlantic, thereby rendering my original lame-ass
original joke to be even lamer than lame.
