Item Description:

1979  debut LP from Philadelphia's The A's.  Rare and Collectible!!

Self-titled debut 1979 album from powerpop band The A’s from Philadelphia, USA.  The A's built a reputation on the east coast club scene with a strong power pop sound and an energetic, goodtime stage show.  The 80's produced great music and one band that was not typical of the 80's were the A's.  They formed in 1978 and released an album in 1979 that took the Philly region by storm.  They were unaffected by the 80's movement and for this their music is not typical of 80's pop.   They had their own thumbprint and when you hear and A's song, it's unlike others. From the beginning with tunes like After Last Night to Misunderstanding and other dance tunes the music was as smart as it was raw.  The production value was excellent and the music stands the test of time. 

The group consisted of singer Richard Bush, his songwriting partner Rocco Notte (keyboards), Rick DiFonzo (guitar), Terry Bortman (bass) and Mike Snyder (drums).
