![]() ![]() One afternoon upon checking out, I spotted what appeared to be an advance cassette of The Records Music on Both Sides album. A local record shop had a modest bargain/freebie section near the front cash register. Later on, I became a little more power-pop conscious upon adopting bands like Cheap Trick and Material issue, but I simply wasn't wed to the genre - not yet anyway. They all qualified as practitioners of the form, but by and large the music overshadowed categorization and nomenclature. Tommy Tutone, The Romantics and the Knack were heavy hitters on on my FM playlist. Thing was, back in the early '80s I was already tuned in but simply unaware of the genre. ![]() It all has to start somewhere, and in this case "it" is my affection for power pop.
