Translator - Everywhere That I'm Not - A Retrospective (1986)


I found this one on eBay and was really hoping that it was an unheralded new wave gem but alas I only really enjoyed one song on this lp (Everywhere That I'm Not).  It's more of an early 80's power pop album somewhat reminiscent of Mister Mister although somewhat better than that.

The Phaetons - Three Weeks, Four Days and Fifteen Hours (45)



I found this one at a thrift store in Ohio for a quarter and took a chance (hey, it was my dime!). The B-side was near psychedelic but the A-side was much more pop. To read more about the Phaetons click here for a nice write-up.

Baja Marimba Band - For Animals Only



I can't say that I really understand the concept of this album. The songs are all animal related but the original 'hits' that inspired these songs span many genres. The Baja Marimba band was known for this sort of cheese though so you probably already know what you are getting if you frequent the thrift store record bins.

Doonesbury: A New Musical



I didn't know that they had made a musical based on this long running comic strip but here it is, compliments of my local thrift store.
