Notes:  I expected more of Adrian Belew's twisted take on guitar when I bought this record, but it surprised me with its pop leanings. I love the way Belew usually takes an titleernate path through his music, but this is a nice change of pace. A team effort, everybody writes a song or two and there doesn't seem to be a dominate sound or style. The cover art is by that marvelous hand we've all seen in Mad magazine a time or two. A nice platter for your Belew collection.

Line Up: 

Adrian Belew: guitar and vocals
Rob Fetters: guitar and vocals
Bob Nyswonger: bass
Chris Arduser: drums
