Swing Set was an alternative indie band from Minneapolis consisting of Mick Wirtz (vocals, drums), Ric Studer (vocals, bass), Michael Nilles, Dan Prozinski (both vocals and guitars), and David Nussbaum (keyboards).

I so wish they would release this album on cd. This album is what the 80's/New Wave is all about. So many songs on here could have been singles or make it on 80's soundtracks.

I agree. This is an awesome hidden gem & one of my favorites & even the two non-album tracks "Knock Knock" & "sincerity" are also great & should be added

I found more various inactive blogs to be posted this album between 2011 and 2014. This here was a last http://growboredbigscott62.blogspot.com ... g-set.html . Somebody did download it? Neither link working by web in the moment. There was a blog that posted it on Flac format in 2013.
