Song Of the Day: August 19, 2005
Hector Penelosa of punk legends the Zeros was a founding member of this SF's Flying Color, which no doubt caused some dyed-in-the-hair punk purists to wonder what went wrong. Although Flying Color made just this one LP, Penelosa continued in a heartfelt folky power pop vein with an endearing solo LP for Cryptovision and several years later, another fine album for Spain's Bam Balamm records entitled Music For Cats, which naturally gets a certain amount of kudos from the staff. Meanwhile guitarist/songwriter Dale Duncan works with Chris Von Sneidern and FC drummer John Stuart in Map of Wyoming. "Dear Friend" was released as a 45 a couple of years prior to this LP; we're not sure if it's the same version.

Fits in nicely with numerous Dom Mariani slices of pop (Someloves/DM3), or the Dangtrippers "masquerade".
Thanks Jon.
the 45 on cryptovision is a different recording altogether. both recorded by tom mallon, the album version featured here is more polished but perhaps less electrifying.
this album is currently out of print. someone should put it out again!
this lp is a must have for any record collection.came out a few years ago on cd on a spanish label called ''munster'' with, get this, some very cool never released bonus tracks.
hey could someone send me a copy of this i had it and lost it when some one broke into my car in 1993. i have been looking for it ever since. geronimo98536@hotmail.com , thanks
