A wonderful little treasure that escaped the notice of virtually everyone when it was released in 1984, even though it fit in perfectly with the kind of vaguely '60s-inspired guitar pop that was all the rage on US college radio at the time. Their lone release (as far as I can tell), a five-song EP, was produced by the singer of the Smithereens and is very similar stylistically to that band. Actually, I never really cared much for the Smithereens, but they never wrote a song this good.
The rest of the EP is meh, but if the quality of this track tempts you (and why wouldn't it) you can get the whole thing from Wilfully Obscure.
