Five More Forgotten Power Pop Bands (That Are Actually GREAT!)

[@timringgenberg2844]

I loved the Producers and Off Broadway.. Worked with both bands and they were not only good, but a very nice bunch of guys. I still listen to there songs today 40 year later.

[@poprocksradio]

I love to hear it when artists you love turn out to be great people, too. Thanks for sharing that and thanks for watching!

I worked with Producer’s bassist Kyle Henderson when he released a solo record in the Christian industry.

[@poprocksradio]

@@shawnuel Awesome! I had read he had done some work in the Christian music industry. Be interested to have a listenn...any recs from that catalog I can look up? Thanks!

[@MMMarvelous]

Todd Rundgren as a solo artist as well as his bands The Nazz & Utopia did a lot of excellent power pop that could easily fill up a whole segment. Songs like Love In Action, Open My Eyes, We Gotta Get You A Woman, Time Heals, Couldn't I Just Tell You, You Cried Wolf, and many more that are classic power pop songs.

[@poprocksradio]

I think Todd is amazing. His career as an artist is really just unparalleled. If you haven't already, check out the little short I did on him: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4LRg4R7eN6iiZosi=1hMS1I0DKcDWDC_C. Thanks!!

Met Todd backstage at an Aerosmith show. I said I'm not really into your stuff,😀😀😀, if you could have seen his jaw drop, but my brother is and he even explained what a great job you did producing Cheap Trick. Big smile and said, Please tell your brother that I said thanks! Great attitude, solid guy! 👍

This brings a tear to my eye. It was true in the 80’s and in the 60’s and 70’s as well. There were HUNDREDS if not THOUSANDS of performers who produced great music and are long gone and almost forgotten, except by the precious few like us. Today? I don’t think so.

All the sudden attention is unreal 40+ years after we recorded the tracks, broke up, and lost the mostly-unmixed studio tapes. They turned up in a filing cabinet in 2020. This led us former Bings bandmates on a 2-year adventure of getting the tapes restored, digitized, and finally mixed by our 1981-82 producer. We self-released the songs in 2023 on CD with downloads on Bandcamp, etc.. Suddenly, our '80s songs began popping up on radio and podcasts all over the world. It's been so unexpected. BTW: Our history is steeped in the Hollywood scene, as we played Madame Wong's, The Troubadour, and all over SoCal . . . . In the late-'70s I worked at Greg Shaw's Bomp!

Good job making Atlanta's The Producers #1. They were playing the same big rock bars in the South that my bands were in the early 80s. I met the band's lawyer through a guitarist I knew in Birmingham and heard a lot of their songs on a cassette he had before they were released. The bass player Kyle Henderson was also in an earlier band called Whiteface that was incredibly talented & did all sorts of styles, all 4 guys were lead singers. The Producers should have been big stars, but it was a record company political problem that prevented it; that happens a lot. Their first album was like a greatest hits album.

[@poprocksradio]

Agreed, they should have been huge! Thanks for sharing about them and thanks for watching!

@poprocksradio I attended Iowa State university from 1981-1985. I remember seeing Hawks perform at an outdoor Frat party and was instantly hooked. They had some airplay on college radio. The singles off their debut were Right Away (#63 on Billboard Hot 100) and It's Alright, It's okay (#32 on Billboard's AOR chart). Every song on that first album was great. The second album "30 Seconds Over Ortho" had some great songs but flopped and they disbanded after the record company canceled them. The recorded a third album "Hawks III" but it was only released on cassette). They did release a CD in 2003 called "Perfect World Radio" and it contained many of the songs that were on Hawks III. There's more information on Wikipedia.

I had to retrieve my post because it vanished. This is what I typed as a response... Countdown episodes get an annual replay on an allnight music show in Australia called RAGE, and it's that show I source most of my material from, including Countdown. Unfortunately, the ABC had about 100 episodes of 70's Countdown erased due to cost saving. It remains a sore point in Countdown history. However, the full episodes that have survived are available for viewing on the Internet Archive. A youtube channel called TassieTV uploads old Countdown episodes on his channel almost daily. That channel is worth checking out. When Countdown was concluded in 1987, a new music show called RAGE began airing on the ABC (Countdown's channel). Rage is an allnight music program that takes up Friday and Saturday nights and 2 hours around 2am for the rest of the week. It's currently the oldest music-video show in the world. In 1993, Rage began it's Countdown marathon. This is typical of Countdown: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gnfZgXqgpbCtjLM Elton John was a regular guest on Countdown and is good friends with host, Ian ''Molly'' Meldrum. Unfortunately, Molly has been in declining health since falling off his ladder (literally, not figuratively) on Christmas 2011.

@@poprocksradio Glad you enjoyed those tracks. Sunnyboys leadsinger, Jeremy Oxley, was diagnosed with Schizophrenia when the band was at its peak. He'd be in the wilderness for 30 years before a fan (a nurse) would find him. They'd marry and she would become his carer. The Sunnyboys reformed in the early 2010s and would have a good ten year run. A documentary called The Sunnyboy was made a few years ago - the trailer is on youtube. The singer of Crystal Set, Russell Kilbey, is the brother of Steve Kilbey, the singer of The Church (''Under The Milky Way''). There's a lot of jangle pop and indie rock from Australia in the 80's, but you may not find a lot of it to have that powerpop quality. The Hoodoo Gurus were popular for their approach to powerpop, though I don't know if they would satisfy lovers of pure powerpop. Loaded Dice and Young Modern were much closer to the powerpop of The Shoes...

Ever heard of Fotomaker? You could do a whole segment just on them. They were a power pop supergroup out of NYC / Long Island in 1978 which included two members of The Rascals and the guitarist from the Raspberries, but the two stars of the band were two unknown Long Island Italians who wrote and sang all the songs. Their first album could have been a greatest hits album as there wasn't a weak song on it. They did other styles as well, but they really nailed power pop. They were signed to Atlantic Records and dropped after the 3rd album which was an absolutely horrible Disco album they did in desperation.

A newer band you might not know, but well worth checking out is Suzy and Los Quattro. I'm not sure if they're still together or not, I'm afraid. They're from Barcelona, Spain, and while their songs are in English, their Facebook is in Spanish, and... no habla. They do some great covers of songs by Phil Seymour and Candy, have awesome originals, and even recorded and toured with the Rubinoos! Well worth your time to check into.

@@poprocksradio You're probably aware that Countdown was a very and powerful music show in Australia. Blondie, John Mellancamp and The Motels had their first hit singles in Australia before anywhere else because of Countdown. I don't really know if Young Modern were endorsing or dismissing Countdown. The Stems and Someloves were also Aussie powerpop groups - both linked by one or two members. I'll keep my eye on this channel, for sure!

@@OnceWasRStrathfield I honestly didn't know much about Countdown till I found the clip of the Innocents for this video (kzbin.info/www/bejne/aYbQk4lvYs9mrMk) but will dig in more!

[@OnceWasRStrathfield]

@@poprocksradio That ''Sooner Or Later'' video is from my nzoz1980. I made a series of these nzoz channels many years ago. I live in Hobart, Tasmania right now - though I am originally from Sydney. I know some people that know The Innocents from many years ago, and apparently Rocky Burnette really liked the guys when he was in Australia and hosting Countdown. Countdown was a wilder version of TOTP's and American Bandstand. It was like an insane kids show, but many artists liked being on the show because of its lack of formularities.

[@poprocksradio]

@@OnceWasRStrathfield omg…that’s your video? Awesome! Great stuff! That’s really one of the best filmed performances of the band I could find online, so I’m grateful for that. Do you know if they have full Countdown episodes out there somewhere? Sounds crazy and would love to see more. Thx!!

I'm not sure what you'd consider "forgotten", or for that matter "Power Pop"... I suppose they're both subjective on some level... but I'd suggest Material Issue (Chicago), The Redwalls (Chicago) and The Kings (Vancouver). Maybe The Redwalls are more Indie and The Kings more Rock. Idk.

[@poprocksradio]

Totally agree...most of this is pretty subjective. The definition of power pop is the source of endless debate (though there are some core things most folks agree on). As for "forgotten"...that word is really more dramatic than it should be. 🤣. For each of these bands, they all have loyal fans who have never left them, even if popular music has moved on. Love both Material Issue and The Kings! Didn't know The Redwalls - listened to a couple tracks off Universal Blues - quite enjoyed that! They must be putting something in the water in Illinois...too many great bands from there. Thanks for that and thanks for watching!

[@BDUBZ49]

@@poprocksradio The Redwalls notable album was Da Nova (2005). Of the 13 tracks, 8 are great and the rest are still listenable. Heavy Beatles influence. They arose around the same time as other retro-sounding Indie bands.. The Fratellis, The Strokes, The Ataris, Jet etc. They re-worked/polished a couple songs from Universal Blues and included them on Da Nova. One of their songs "Build A Bridge" was used in an AT&T commercial. "It's Alright" was featured in an episode of Entourage. They broke up after their 3rd album, having never released any singles for airplay. The one brother, Logan Baron, continued to make music and perform. kzbin.info/www/bejne/i6LHdWqna9VraNk
