Vapors - New Clear Days

God, I loved that album, too bad they flamed out so fast. I heard the leader went back home to Scotland and opened a pub.

Good memories associated with that LP ("Guess I'll be a government thug one day")

Their 1981 followup (and only other release) Magnets is a great album as well and a little more consistent. I grew up with them both and Magnets is the one I usually put on these days.

Excellent choice my friend. I used to live in San Pedro and was on that highway daily where they took the picture for the cover.
