BOS for the Feats.  What's a Rubinoo?


per AMG: For a brief moment, the Rubinoos seemed to be the last hope for pure pop music, carrying on the tradition of the Raspberries with an engaging blend of innocent bubblegum and power pop. The band was formed in 1973 by teenage friends Jon Rubin (vocals, guitar) and Tommy Dunbar (guitar, keyboards, vocals) along with Royse Adler (bass) and Donn Spindt (drums), but it wasn't until 1977 that they made their recording debut for Beserkley Records. The single, a cover of Tommy James' "I Think We're Alone Now," made an appearance in the lower reaches of the U.S. charts, giving the indie label their first hit. The same year, their self-titled debut LP received rave reviews all-around but failed commercially. Back to the Drawing Board (1979), another solid collection of bouncy pop songs, again went ignored despite its classic single "I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend." The band effectively broke up the following year.

Dave played the latter song once a few years ago.

What say we stuff the ballot box if only to encourage Dave to find more bustouts.?  I have since used our email link to vote again.

i voted for them, too. but maybe the fact that he played them shows that we  already have some influence. still not as great as the radio ga-gods. but maybe a bustout a week is a nice sign. we can't expect to never hear the police again, as nice as that would be.

Just to clear that up, at this time Dave & Nick were using the same backing band.  When they decided to jointly front the band they became Rockpile.  In other words any Lowe or Edmunds solo work from this period could also be called 4/5 of Rockpile.  So Davefish is pretty much dead-on on both counts.
