Product Description

You may want to hang on to the Badinovs' 1st CD, Fess Up for a few decades - the last time this songwriting team put out a release (2 song 45 rpm, Chitter Chat/Tonight) it became a cult classic and holy grail of vintage 45s, and is now selling to the cognoscenti of pop/punk for ridiculous money - $763.00! Yes, the Badinovs are direct descendants of Smart Alex, St. Paul, Minnesota's first all original pop/punk outfit, in which Mike Nilles & Patrick Olberding lead back in the late 70s. Now, the Badinovs have finally reunited these two, and have released Fess Up, 15 inspired and diverse songs that continue the melodic but edgy pop they had begun a few decades ago. Musically, there is a fondness for the innovation of Lennon-McCartney but in spirit, the looseness of the Faces which continues to be part of the style of The Badinovs. The Badinovs like to walk the tight-rope act of writing and performing complex, clever pop-rock that is equally catchy, lyrically captivating and fun. Guitar sounds range from shimmery acoustic, to chiming pop to chunky chord crashes. 'Fess Up' contains 15 distinctly different tunes, striving to attain the variety and inventiveness of one of our favorite and greatest albums of all time, 'Revolver' by The Beatles. Our goal is to delight and engage the listener - we're sure you'll find some interesting listening.
