New to me...


The Keys released a few singles and one LP in 1979 every time i see them mentioned there seems to be the obligatory mention that Joe Jackson produced their LP. This seems, to me, more of a sign of the quality of the record that any resemblance to Joe Jackson's sound.

I learned about this band here on the terrific blog called "PVAc to 44.1 kHz". A lot of the power pop bloggers I read know a bout this record but it was new to me. I really like the classic 80's vibe that this has without out sounding too cheesy. There is a kind of annoying slight tinny sound to the mp3s but I'll take it rather than never having heard them.

They sound like a 80's movie soundtrack band with better songs.

These are the first and last tracks from their one and only LP called: The Keys Album.

Hello, Hello

World Ain't Turning
