Thanks, Lord Em. But the thread is a bit lost here sitting in podcasts and radio. Can we move it to Other Music maybe?

Yes we can
That was user error 😬
I was listening to that first album yesterday and it’s a classic. What a great band. They should be more acclaimed.
Do The Boob

Lou Reed loved 'All Kindsa Girls' when it was first released. When the Real Kids split up, two members went on to form The Taxi Boys

Predictably, the so-called f-word raises the ire of some

I remember thinking their hairstyles on that 1977 album cover worked well despite wearing mine shorter at the time.
Sound-wise I'd describe it as power pop, sort of a cross between the Flamin' Groovies and MC5.
