Goin Down The Tubes
cdmred363
Reissue of this classic compilation, taken from the Tubes' golden period during their time with A&M records in the late 1970's. This double CD takes from all their best-loved albums and includes the entire remote control album that was released in 1979, produced by Todd Rundgren. The CD booklet features a UK discography, sleeve notes and lyrics to the singles included on the album. Also many of the band's brilliant and visually striking album images are featured throughout the booklet. The CD features 5 of the band's best known singles 'White Punks On Dope', 'Don't Touch Me There', 'Prime Time', 'TV is King' and 'Love's A Mystery (I Don't Understand)'. The Tubes created a unique blend of tongue in cheek theatrical rock that found a niche within the whole punk/new wave movement of the mid-late 70's. They built a huge reputation for their outrageously extravagant live shows, performing at Knebworth festival and a record breaking run at the old Hammersmith Odeon. The Tubes are still working today. The band tours extensively across the us and they have a very well presented and supported official website www.thetubes.com
