Thanks for posting that song, Don. This used to be a staple on KROQ, and I cranked up the stereo everytime it came on. It never gets old.

Never thought Crack the Sky would be mentioned on this board...

Didn't know that Palumbo had solo albums. I like that Detroit song.

Anyways, there's MP3 files for the Blowing up Detroit album and two Crack the Sky albums that never made it to CD at http://www.crackthesky.com/boots.htm

Glad to help, Med.

Plagiarism, thanks for posting the link to the Palumbo albums.

Just like Aural, I also have fond memories of Blowing up Detroit playing on KROQ. There's a paticular set of songs that I seem to recall coming out on KROQ around the same time (though I'm not really sure if the timing is right):

B.U.D. by John Palumbo
Rain by Dragon
Janitor by Suburban Lawns

That was such a great time for music.
