It reached #1 on KROQ in Los Angeles. There was some controversy over the "pop my cherry" lyrics. Some irate mothers complained to the FCC and the record was banned in California. After a DJ was suspended for playing the record, the 3rd verse was re-recorded to replace "pop my cherry". The altered version was played on the radio but not released to the public. 45 RPM single - 1981, Moment Productions A: Right To Know B: Your History Complete D-Day - 1983, A&M Records Dance It Off Strange Feeling Join The Ranks Dream Song Desperation [215k MP3] Radio On Secret Worlds Do You Read Me Hold On More Than That Lonely People [225k MP3] This is their first and only album. "Desperation" was the biggest stand-out and received some air play. The album went in a different direction from their earlier tunes and was not well received by fans and radio stations. David Fore on the creation of the album: "The band had always experimented with different musical styles, and after our original really heavy guitar player (Stuart Hillyer) left and was replaced by Will Fiveash, we played ska and reggae in addition to punk, but our sound grew lighter. Then the lead singer decided she didn't want to sing the scatological songs anymore. I brought up putting 2YTD on the album and no one but me wanted to (she and I wrote it). A+M asked us to "give us an album" with 10 Too Young to Date's on it, but as you can hear we didn't deliver. An "English Invasion" was happening with Flock of Seagulls etc. and we wanted to get in on that sound. However, we chose the wrong English producer, Bob Sargent, he didn't even like 2YTD! We were so blinded by the "Big record Deal" that no one wanted to speak up in London and say this is the wrong direction and the wrong sound, let's go home and regroup. We were living in a castle and having the time of our lives on A+M's expense account. It was NOT A+M's fault." - www.madmartian.comDe White, better known as Guy Juke, moved to town in 1973, and by 1974 Priest had enlisted his help at the Armadillo. Blessed with an effective mastery of form, an enviable command of color, and an indefatigable imagination, Juke produced some of the finest Armadillo designs. More than any other Austin poster artist, his work exhibits a strikingly broad cross-section of styles - from realistic portraits to Merrie Melodies takeoffs, from old-style ersatz woodcuts to new wave minimalism. Particularly noteworthy is his 1976 series of two dozen or so Butch Hancock handbills displaying an assortment of the many styles at Juke's disposal and indicating the predisposition Juke has to wry twists and visual puns that rivals Franklin's own. Juke dominated the Austin poster field during the early Eighties; and his series of colorful screen prints begun about that time and created for the Austin Chronicle Music Awards is worth seeking out. -jagmo.comThis is an original single sheet printed paper poster advertisement (A.K.A. handbill, flyer or print) for a concert performance gig by professional musicians at a music venue.
