Joey Wilson- Hold On Girl

I am reflecting on some of the recent posts. For instance, yesterdays post was from a Philadelphia label and I recently purchased a book on Philadelphia record labels. I didn't realize that it was in it until after my post. I usually am very observant but not this time. Or how about the Mission of Burma 45 was released in 1982..I was probably listening to some type of Loverboy crap at that time as I would have had no avenue to ever hear something like Mission of Burma at that time..and I probably would not have liked it. When I would go to the record stores in Colorado Springs I never ventured past the top 40. However, starting when I discovered REM and U2 in 1983 I started venturing ouI the normal radio crap. I remember a record store in the mall had the top 100 45 list and I remember buying REM's South Cetnral Rain with Picture sleeve as it was in the top 100 but still not a big hit. Today's post is from 1980 and it was never played on the radio where I lived. It was one of the first releases on Modern and predates any Stevie Nicks releases. I previously wrote how I picked up his LP during the big 2021 LP buy and thought it was fantastic. I read that Joey had a live kickass group and was working on new material when he died in 1997. I wonder if there is any unrleased material. Would be nice if some label like Light in the Attic or Omnivore reissued this and tried to find out about any unrleased material. I picked this one up in via mail order the past 6 months and when it arrived it had a big warp. I managed to dewarp it enough to play.
