Garland Jeffreys : Modern Lovers
[Purchase]
In February of 1981, Garland Jeffreys released Escape Artist. Recorded with members of the E Street Band, members of The Rumour, Adrian Belew, Lou Reed, and Big Youth, Jeffreys has updated his sound. Radio stations played his cover of "96 Tears", but there are a few other gens here including opening track "Modern Lovers" which is not about the band.
The Plimsouls : Lost Time
[Purchase]
Ex-Nerves Peter Case continues his power pop ways with The Plimsouls, whose self-titled debut shows why they were huge on the LA club scene. Ridiculous that this didn't get radio airplay. "A Million Miles Away" is on the follow-up.

The Barracudas : We're Living in Violent Times
[Purchase]
The British band The Barracudas seem to be anticipating the entire neo-psychedelic Paisley Underground scene a year early on Drop Out. They would break up later in the year.
