Skeeter you are my new main man! I've loved that album forever and I've come across few people who've even heard it. Perhaps I've been travelling in the wrong circles all these years. It's the only Hoodoo Gurus album I've ever owned. My big sister's b-friend gave me a taped copy when i was in the 8th grade. I'm on my 3rd copy of it, I think.

DITTO!!! Saw Hoodoo twice while I was in college – Irving Plaza in NYC both times. Absolutely fantastic. I'm on my 3rd copy (two cds and the vinyl)

These are the albums I never skip a song – well, just one on Exile (I hate "Soap Star Joe").

A friend once told me that there is no album you don't skip at least one song on. I thought he was out of his mind, but once I paid attention, he's 99% rigtht….

I heard a song off of that album the other day on the radio. Still sounds good.

I've got Blow Your Cool around somewhere. This one is better eh?

Great topic by-the-way. It's reminding me of some records that I need to re-visit or go discover.

Caught the Hoodoo Gurus once back in '86 opening for The Bangles. They were terrific. I still don't understand why they weren't absolutely huge. I never heard a HG album I didn't like, but Stoneage Romeos is a great f-cking pop record.

Is Pet Sounds really all that good, through and through? To me, it's sort of like this Broken Social Scene cd I'm listening to…a few good hits, and a lot of experimental artsy crap.

I'll take my Beach Boys 20 Greatest Hits, or whatever it's called, over Pet Sounds anyday!

Yes, Let Go is a good album. The reviews I read though were less than favorable.
