The Best Vinyl I've Got . . . Well, mostly vinyl, and mostly good ;-)

The Cretones - Snap! Snap! (1981) [Vinyl]

, ,

Bet you thought I'd given up? Not quite - just been busy with other stuff.

This post comes you you courtesy of my new found friend and frequent visitor, AJ.
Vist AJ HERE at his new blog! I expect to hear good thing from him!

He thought I might like to hear The Cretones after seeing how much I like power pop music (The Producers, etc.). I had to admit I was not familiar with them at all although I do remember the record being in the store back "in the day". I must say I wish I'd heard of them sooner! Every song is just great!

Hey! Great to see it on your blog. I just talked to my brother who lives in New York. We both like the same type of music, including the Cretones. He has "Thin Red Line", the other LP by the Cretones. I'm going to get him to mail it to me so I can get it digitized. So, soon I may have that one for you!

Thanks for putting this out there. I hope others have the chance to listen to a great (very underated) band from the early 80's.

Linda Ronstadt covered one or more Cretones songs ("Justine", for one) on her "new wave" album, "Mad Love." Nice to hear them again!
