It's been another week where I simply didn't get o much of anything in terms of this site, one that feels like it's very slowly going to pot due to my neglect. Am definitely going to make more of an effort to get in the swing of things by spring. In the meantime, I present to you
The Lost Tropics, major label casualties from the mid-80s, who were ostensibly responsible for a one-and-done album, pictured to your right. New wavish for certain, but thankfully nothing gaudy or egregiously over-produced which was the norm for their era. Coed vocals as well, splitting the difference just about evenly, with the "he" quotient vaguely recalling Ric Ocasek - convenient as some of the
Lost Tropics skews in a
Candy-O-esque vicinity (sorta). Competent and even enjoyable, albeit nothing particularly innovative. Nonetheless you can count me as a fan.

Your posts are always welcome. Your knowledge of music is always appreciated.
Going to pot is relative, given the state of the world, which is far outpacing you in that sense. Also, once a weekish doesn't seem neglectful to those of us who appreciate what you do. --Muzak McMusics
