The Sights - So Much For Everlasting Love 12" EP - 1982

Here's a somewhat obscure selection from the early 80's. It's an EP by The Sights who were jamming out New Wave tunes around Los Angeles during the height of this whole movement. The 4 songs here are all pretty strong. The opening track is great little guitar driven song. "Dirty Bop" is a dirty power pop rocker that is also quite tastey.

For more on this EP check out this blog. On this site there a bunch of comments from people about this record and one person writes about everything The Sights released. Here's what I copied and pasted.

1. 98.6 Again
2. Twice As Hard
