369.0. "Smashed Gladys" by RAVEN1::ROSENBERG () Tue Nov 29 1988 20:04

      Yo gang, Over the turkey weakend I had the chance to hear a new
    CD that I taped to listen to on my way to Atlanta. I taped in dolby
    "C" and the results were phonominal(sp?). Anyway the name of the
    band is SMASHED GLADYS and I've got to tell you these guys (and
    girl) are fantastic. The name of the CD is social intercorse. Has
    anyone else heard this band? Is this there first album? Has anyone
    seen them? ect,ect.............

369.4I know what I likeRAVEN1::ROSENBERGwon't get fooled againFri Mar 03 1989 02:0510
    	Come on gang, I know this ain't the greatest band in the world
    but I gotta tell ya they do crank. Legs up is one of the best tune
    I've heard in a while. 
    
    	Someone please help me increase my vocabulary and tell me what
    the fuc* does poseur mean

               Daniel Webster defines poseur as follows:
    
    Poseur - a trade off between talent and looks.  Pretty boys.  Bands
    that have the sole intent of selling records to teenage girls
    blossoming into women.  Examples:  BonJovi, Poison, Winger, Whitesnake,
    and the like.  Often good musicians are buried under all the glitter
    and styling gel.  Examples:  Richie Sambora, Vivian Campell, Rudy
    Sarzo, Lemmy (whoops, how the h*ll did that get in there ...)

    	Well I guess I'll have to listen to all the lyrics again and
    see if Smashed Gladys fits the discription. But I'm pretty sure
    that they don't. I'll admit that some it is kinda mainstreamis,
    like seventeen going on crazy. But the music itself seems to be
    sincere Rock&Roll. Maybe I'll listen to them one time sober.

    I heard of them a looong time ago. My ex-SO got the promo copy of their
    debut album. It was average IMHO.
