Sherbet were huge in Australia and were a pop rock band. But who cares anyway.

I take it from your comments that the reconstruction era has not yet ended. You'll be receiving a mailing address forthwith.

True, but Candy-O is the perfect example. Aside from “Let's Go” which was already getting play, and the very arch Suicide homage “Shoo-Be-Doo” there were nine other songs that are perfect for airplay – new-wave, power-pop, whatever it is, it was a veritable singles collection right out of the box…

I know we dingbat metalheads of the day were a little intimidating (and nowhere near enlightened) but had the 10% informed us that our gaydar was picking up mixed frequencies, maybe we would have stopped trying to pick up hot chicks with Rob Halford's double entendre.

“Let's Go” gets played a lot, but songs like the “Candy-O” I really don't hear all that much. And you're right about burning out one album from a band versus looking for deep cuts from albums that weren't that successful, but had some gems that weren't released as singles.
