ABOUT THE ALBUM

3CD... In 1979, The Knack Kicked Open The Doors For A Global Power Pop Explosion, And A Year Or So Later, Almost As Quickly, The Doors Closed Again, But Not Before A Mass Of Their Contemporaries Followed Them Through. Soon, A Bunch Of Others Got Caught Up In The Excitement And The Record Business Relearned The Power Of Guitar-Driven Pop - The First Few Years Of The '80s Were As Exciting For Power Pop As The Last Couple Of The 70s Had Been, And Even When It Returned To The Underground, The Music Continued To Flow Throughout The Decade. 'I Wanna Be A Teen Again' Follows The 80s Power Pop Explosion From It's Hypocentre Early In The Decade To It's Enduring Late Period Gems, Exploring Both Leading And Lesser Lights, The Old Hands And New Talents Who Made It Such An Exciting Musical Happening. By The Middle Of The Decade, The Term Power Pop Had Been All But Retired, But A Handful Of New Bands Found Success By Avoiding It, Whilst New Movements, Including The Paisley Underground And Indie Pop, Helped Keep Others Alive Under New Brandings. All The While A Small Number Of Holdouts, The Pop Equivalent Of The Soldiers Lost In The Jungle After The War Had Ended, Strove To Keep The Music And The Name Alive. Packed With Classic Cuts And Long-Overlooked Rough Diamonds, And Appearing At A Time When New Outfits Like The Lemon Twigs Pick Through The Body Of 80s Power Pop For Material And Inspiration And Some Key Artists Like Redd Kross And The Bangles Are Celebrated In Books And Film, 'I Wanna Be A Teen Again' Is A Timely Examination And Celebration Of This Action-Packed Era And It's Thrilling Sounds.
