The Producers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, i thought I was the only one. I like their debut record better than You Make the Heat though. What a great power pop band. I picked up both copies of their first two records in mint condition last week for $3 each. The vinyl store I bought them in had them in the 'Lunch Money' section. What a find!

Only power pop band of the late 70's / early 80's that I liked better was 20/20.

Working my way through the 5LP box set of the recordings made by Mercury as the "First recordings ever made in the Soviet Union by American technical and musical staff and equipment. Recorded by Mercury on location in Moscow." What a set!
