I was listening to this LP today for the first time in a REALLY long time. Not a bad song on the entire LP, and nearly half a dozen pure CLASSICS. Bye Bye Love, Good Times Roll, Best Friends Girl...and can't forget Moving In Stereo (the signature Fast Times at Ridgemont High tune).

I think people mostly remember their 1980's heyday, when for a very short time they were the biggest band in the land and had moved away from their guitar-crunching pop-perfect debut and follow-up, Candy-O (a great LP in its own right).

Yeah, that's a great album. You're right, there aren't any real clunkers on the album. My favorite song is probably Best Friends Girl

I think it was in "Please Kill Me" someone said they heard the Cars on the radio (this record) and realized Television would never make it because someone had copped their sound and made it commercial. Me... I don't see that at all.
