2009 reissue, released to coincide with the 30th Anniversary of the album's original issue. On this 1979 outing, the Tubes enlisted the services of wunderkind producer Todd Rundgren to create a concept album that skewers the television generation. The choice was a wise one - Rundgren helped the group harness their satirical bite and love of pomp-rock excess to create a sharp and engaging collection of songs. As they chronicle the life of an average Joe whose life and dreams are swallowed by his television addiction, the Tubes lead the listener through a dazzling array of musical styles that include New Wave, Lounge Pop, Reggae, and even full-throttle Punk. Highlights include 'Prime Time,' 'Love's A Mystery (I Don't Understand),' and 'Get-Overture'. The end result is the band's finest hour and a treat for concept-album fanatics. Universal.
