I think that the fact that I am 70 years old and really love to listen to all of the songs on the Smash Palace CD might just mean that this music is appealing to all ages. Seems that way to me. I put it on jukebox on my new CP and play it constantly.

Im in love with this cd. I listen to it constantly ever since i saw Smash Palace play in New York City at the Lakeside Lounge. They are a great live band, real tight and excellent musicians. But its really the cd that sends me. Every song is fantastic. I cant remember the last time i bought a recording of a band where even half of the songs were good. The one thing i cant figure out is why the cd is so hard to find and why dont i hear them on the radio?

this is the best cd ive heard this year. it reminds me of oasis, the beatles, the kinks and many other great bands the have excellent songs. i recommend this record to all lovers of great songwriting.

I love this record. I saw them live at the Pontiac in Philly and they blew me away. i went right out and bought the cd and its a really cool record. Every song is outstanding. I highly recommend this one. check it out!

I hope I'm not the only one who treasures the one-shot CBS album by Quincy, released around 1980. Of all the new-wave power pop releases of the era, that collection continues to impress me with its well-crafted, energetic and insanely catchy tunes.

Well, the guiding forces behind Quincy, brothers Stephen and Brian Butler, have returned in grand style to the Beatlesque pop genre with this fine CD.

Every song is lovingly performed, with the kind of tunesmithery younger bands can't seem to achieve. The brothers' harmonies are to die for.

Occasionally I wish the performances weren't so laid back. At the same time, I wish the lyrics reflected a bit more of the creators' experience and maturity. I guess I'm trying to have it both ways: wishing it was 1980 again, but not wanting to relive the confusion of being 19 years old.

To the Butlers, well done! To the rest of you, buy this CD. Then go see if you can find Quincy (Columbia NJC 36471).

One of my high school teachers is a member of this band. They played at my school and it was awesome. They have a great sound and every song is catchy. This cd should be in your collection.
