795.0. "Diving For Pearls" by QRYCHE::STARR (Spontaneity has its time and place.) Wed Sep 18 1991 00:30

A totally ordinary band. Like so many others out there, I'm sure these
guys are gonna be files in the "Where are they now?" column real soon.
Good hook with the lead-off song, "Gimme Your Good Loving", but it
just goes downhill from there.

Which reminds me of a real sore point - can't *any* of these write any 
songs??? The're always just a mish-mash of guitar hooks and trite cliches.

(Never mind me, just blowing off a little steam.....)

Anyways, here's the basic info:

Danny Malone - Vocals and guitar
Yul Vazquez - Guitar and vocals
Jack Moran - Keyboards
David Weeks - Bass
Peter Clemente - Drums

Produced by David Prater.

    Their eponimously named debut album was actually voted as one of the
    top ten releases for that year in Kerrang.  Just goes to show....

Huh? What, ya mean I can only write about bands I like??? 

(To answer the question, though, now that I have a CD player in my car, I 
have a chance to listen to a lot of new music. This CD, along with 6-7 others, 
is one that I took a chance on from the $1.99 bin.)

The album came out in 1990. I remember hearing the single on 'AAF a few times.
