THE IDEA - SIDEWAYS SMILE (1992)
A longtime fixture of the Chicago power pop community, singer/guitarist Phil Angotti tenured with acts including the Fleas and the Scuffle before joining with singer Jay Goeppner in 1987 to form the long-running Beatle Brothers. (He also served with Graham and Brad Elvis in the like-minded Not the Beatles.) In 1991 Phil Angotti formed his own group, the Idea, a year later releasing their debut LP "Sideways Smile" on the Lisabet label. It took Angotti five years to issue the Idea's third effort, the Our House label release "Afternoon Balloon". AMG

The second Idea CD album is called Picturesque. It was released on Raven records in 1995/96. Great site. Terry
wow, seeing how great this album is i'd do anything to get my hands on that one.
This is a fantastic record and I just found a used copy. Any chance you could post Flower Bomb? Thanks for everything.
