Title Note

Personnel: Roger Steen, Bill Spooner (vocals, guitar); Fee Waybill, Re Styles (vocals); Vince Welnick (keyboards); Michael Cotten (synthesizer); Prairie L'Emprere Prince, Prairie Prince (drums).

Recording information: Record Plant Studios, Los Angeles, CA (03/1975-04/1975).

Photographer: Harry Mittman.

Produced by Al Kooper, this debut by the notorious San Francisco group is best known for the blazing anthem "White Punks on Dope." Although the Tubes' raison d'ˆtre was their shock-rock stage dynamic, Bill Spooner, Fee Waybill, and company could, on occasion, deliver some offbeat pop splendor. A good example is the song "Haloes," co-written with Kooper, a tough power pop jewel that sounds like Todd Rundgren colliding with Roxy Music. Also of note is "Boy Crazy," which shows off Spooner's guitar skills. But for every "Haloes" and "Boy Crazy," there's a novelty number consciously created for the stage and that ultimately embarrasses, such as "Mondo Bondage" and "Space Baby." Kooper's production is faultless, however, as are the horn and string arrangements by Dominic Frontiere (Frontiere did the original score for the '60s cult sci-fi show The Outer Limits). ~ Peter Kurtz
