Texas King Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 Your views on this female-fronted American new wave band? Do you dig them? This band had Terry Bozzio, a guy who is a notable name in the world of drummers. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue J Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 I saw Terry Bozzio perform with Jeff Beck on Beck’s Guitar Shop tour, 1989- incredible drummer. (And who I really went to that show to see was Stevie Ray Vaughan- blew me away). Missing Persons? Not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zepphead Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 Typical early '80s 'new wave' fare ....... pretty disposable imo. Bozzio (who was married to the lead singer) is a decent drummer though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leanne Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 Yes I like some of their songs. Walking in LA, Words, Destination Unknown. I have the greatest hits CD. Every once in awhile, I will see a post from Josh Freeze on Instagram talking about Terry. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMontanaSKY Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 I love them. I like acts that stand out somehow. They were quirky. Also the singer was a sight to behold. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhyta Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 Caught your attention with the quirky vocals, a couple of catchy songs but a flash in the pan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnRogers Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 Two songs, one brilliant, one okay. One gets heavy rotation on my devices, the other not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Several Zappa alumni in that band. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
