'Objects In Space'
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
Thanks, Jon.
Sadly, no luck there on The Urban Guerillas.
It's so hard to find info on obscure bands that predate the internet.

"I've Never Been to Me"
I. Fucking. Hate. That. Song.
But mostly because of associations with my high-school girlfriend.
I am drowning in mix CDs!
What a way to go though, huh? And fortunately you've got the time to enjoy them now.

Oops. Sorry, tommyrot. I adore it in all its cheesy glory, but that's mostly because I associate it with The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. Glad you're enjoying the mix, tina!
Woo hoo! A website on whistling records! Including (right here) a link to Brother Bones doing "Sweet Georgia Brown" (Harlem Globetrotters theme). Downloadable.
The Urban Guerillas.
tommyrot, what precisely are you looking for? Just basic info, or recordings? Basic info might be found through First Avenue, but you'd have to call and ask to talk to someone who was around then (of which there are many).
If you're looking for recordings, I can go comb through the local used record stores.

Well, for starters, a discography.

That'd be cool. A friend of mine has all of their recordings on LP, so I'd like CDs. If they exist.
I don't remember too well what song's on what, but their album titled, um, "Attack of the Pink Heat-Seeking Moisture Missles" comes to mind.
...maybe I shouldn't have followed that album title with the word "comes"...
Anyway, any help would be appreciated....
Just got a spam with the subject line
now that I am a styrofoam pragmatist
Is that a great band name or what? "The Styrofoam Pragmatists". It's a keeper.
Reminds me of Polly Styrene (of X-Ray Spex). Best punk name evah!

Thanks to Natter and the many interesting links people post there, I realized that a perfect band name would be "Rasputin's Wang."
