"Radiation Vibe" is just sublime. Peak 90s power pop. "Denise," too, for that matter, though it's on Utopia Parkway.

At the risk of going further into the weeds, I'm putting in a vote for Ivy's "Apartment Life" record. Just fantastic all around.

True that, but did you know where they got their name? There was a place in NJ called Fountains of Wayne that sold concrete yard ornaments. It was right next door to a strip club, so when they wanted to go there they would just say; "Let's go to Fountains of Wayne".

These guys were also hired by Tom Hanks to do the music is his period piece; "That Thing You Do" https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0117887/?ref_=ttco_ov_i

This was also a great piece of work and a good movie.
