One Night in America
This live CD, originally recorded in 1981 but never officially released, captures the band's unique mix of progressive punk and power pop in a tight, sometimes messy, energetic performance. Featuring classic tunes such as 'A Million Miles Away' and 'How Long Will It Take', the band also included a few covers such as The Kinks' 'Come On Now' and The Outsiders' 'Time Won't Let Me', here in all their raw, live glory. Though their fame was short-lived, The Plimsouls definitely carved out a niche in the early 80's. Shrewd songwriting and straight ahead guitar rock appealed to a throng of new wavers looking for music with a little more balls, and has influenced numerous bands ever since. Fully re-mastered with a bonus track. Oglio. 2005.
