POWERPOP TO THE PEOPLE VOL 4 (1979-1993)
 
ZS1 + ZS2 (576 mb)

ZS (183 mb)
 
Powerpop To the People is back again. 25 bands, 25 songs you may know or not, but 25 songs with plenty of hooks. Roy Loney's opening is from the Contents Under Pressure LP, (you know... the Roy Loney album with synths...). Of course you all know the Full Time Men were Keith Streng and Peter Buck for this 12" EP. Though their drummer Alan Powell (ex-Tanz Der Youth) was coming from England, Jo Allen & The Shapes were from San Francisco, just like the Yanks were from the Bay Area, and the Peter Case acoustic version is from a B.O.B flexi, The Rubinoos' King Youth is from the Bomb Shelter CD (a very limited release). The Alley Cats released two LP's before switching their name to The Zarkons. Read comments for more details. Both links in title.

I am very excited to see a track by Jo Alen and the Shapes. I saw them live circa 1980...they were great. Do you happen to have an mp3 of their single "Shimmy Shimmy"?
