LOL, I have the Sha Na Na album which is the last one he looks at. Haven't thought about (or listened to) them in quite some time. Oh, Bowzer, where have you gone?

Nice catch!

Loving final track Keep Your Name Alive ...bit of an ode to Queen maybe, title-wise & some harmonies too. 6SvItRxR190 Like this video from my city too. Funny bit with band member Jay Ferguson taking some free ol...

^^I was getting a little concerned, I mean they haven’t a record out since March 4th^^

Really easy on the ears, and just a cut above Carnival Boy I think. All Used Up is the star of the show, for me...could have t...

Great review, and an excellent record. I had to dig deep to find this, turns out I had it on a hard drive, never listened to until today. Prick move on Uncle Bob to release his own solo same day, but kinda funny too.

LOVE this record. https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/813sh4oVE2L._SS300_.jpg Under the Bushes Under the Stars (1996) In 1996, the band was the talk of the indie world and on a major hot streak. The original plan for Under the Bushes Under the Stars was to do a trimmed-down, concept record loosely b...

Nice review there! Love the release...I've only got about 6 full listens, next time I'll use this as a backdrop...as you mention above, the output is crazy, unprecedented...I really don't know how they pull it off time & again, but they do. Thanks, 3mike! Did the band reschedule the Toronto show? I...

The sheer volume of output accompanied by zero dilution of quality is, to my knowledge, unprecedented. This lineup (and jack-of-all-trades, producer/engine...

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51T4N9R18VL.jpg A lot of quality up and down their entire discography. Been aware of them and have put a track or two on a power pop playlist, but hadn't really dug too deep. Spent some time with their first five albums over the past week and I like what I hear. ...

Unstoppable

Incredible band. Great thread! I've been appreciating it for a long time now. Artists aren't supposed to have this quality & quantity of output at this stage of a career. French word nonpariel (having no equal): IS Bob. I recently finished "Closer You Are: The Story of Robert Pollard and Guided by V...
