Only one great album from 1990 and then nothing.And what a great album it was too.It included their one hit "There She Goes" Did they ever even do a second album is what I would like to know? If they did not too many pressings must have been made,because I never even saw it.It was bad enough when I couldn't find their first album on CD until years later.
What made this band so obscure and hard to find at the time,when they had a hit on the radio at the time? Any word on their whereabouts of today?

There is another album called Lost LA's - demos/live tracks from the mid eighties before they signed to Go Discs.

I personally cannot stand the Sixpence None The Richer rendition of There She Goes. Makes my ears bleed! [xx(]
