what a true gem for the 80's Pure pop raggedness, out and out rock, addictive hooks, artsy experiments. Probably ignored by many and probably more upon its re-release on CD, this collection of tunes never fails to excite. . . hell, this has it all, including the pure pop masterpiece and Felt tribute "Christina". But there are other moments as well---the jet propulsiveness of "Oils" and "Dalmations", the acoustic power pop of "Can't Sit Still", the psycho proto-metal punk of "Castro 59" and the sheer odd beauty of the synth driven "The Hill. " Definitely an overlooked seminal work of the late 80's, you have no excuse to overlook it now. Buy it now, its magic awaits you.
