Continuing my little series of posts about Teenbeat, I’ll move onto Tuscadero, another one of the bands that will be reuniting for the 20th anniversary concert next month.
Tuscadero was a poppy foursome whose first album featured songs about candy, boardgames, Nancy Drew and a character from Happy Days that was their namesake. Since I don’t have anything else by them, both songs are off of the Pink Album. I would have liked to include Angel in a Half-Shirt, their song about the wonders of a bare abdomen with "some love handles it's true, all the better to hold onto!"
The songs:
Nancy Drew – By far my choice for the best Tuscadero song. I think everyone can appreciate a song about their parents tossing out all of their old stuff from childhood.
Mt. Pleasant – It’s their Beaver Cleaver neighborhood. It might not be pretty, but it sure smells good.
Until next time, when I’ll have a post about Versus.
