Incidentally, this was recorded on a home eight-track, which still amazes me. Laufer redid it, pretty much note for note, for his bigger-budgeted 1995 major label album Wonderwood (one of the truly great records of its decade, incidentally) but this one just has a certain extra little something the otherwise estimable remake lacks. IMHO.

Truly a great song! Listened to it 4 times already!!
Outstanding! I posted a link to PowerPop on FB this morning so the world (or my little corner of it) can hear it.
Thanks!
That was, um, wonderful.
Wow.
I've got some Rob Laufer on my iPod but I don't have this.
I will by the time the sun goes down, thought.
He's so, so good. He should be filling arenas.
So-o-o-o good. I love way the first note of the guitar break comes swooping out of the vocal at the end the end of the phrase "start all over again."
One of the reasons I stopped playing guitar for years is because I realized I'd never be able to sound like the ones on this record.
That is truly sublime.
Rob is new to me.
Thanks.
His voice sounds like a mixture of Lindsey Buckingham and Jeff Lyne. Better than either.
