Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1980, Rock, Power Pop, Los Angeles, California

Condition: G+, shows wear but plays fine

Cultural Facts:

  1. Scene Ecology: A core LA club-band single, born in the same early-80s circuit that fed punk, power pop, and the first wave of “alternative” before the word went corporate.

  2. Media Narrative: The song later got a second life through Valley Girl, turning a working-band anthem into a movie-era time capsule people remember even if they missed the clubs.

  3. Personal Struggle: Singer Peter Case has talked about growing up in poverty and instability, including periods of homelessness, before music became his way out.
