Brit band who never got their due. They're not quite jangle-pop, but very melodic to say the least. They put out a few singles in the early 80's, signed to Arista, then BMG, and quickly disappeared. Their compilation CD "The Sound of Philadelphia" goes for high prices on eBay.

Unguarded, I have their CD Tell God I'm Here. Ah, Sweet sanity and Better Time! Some great stuff. I'm too late for your post. Are there any songs on my CD you want or is there anything on the compilation I am missing? Feel free to email me if you like...Thanks!

Brent, there are five songs on the Sanity CD that are on the "Philadelphia" comp, so I don't really need any-thanks for the offer 'tho. There are at least a couple more excellent tracks on the comp that I think you may like. If you want them posted I will do that for you-just let me know.
