No Video
The poppiest Scenics recording, and the last made by The Scenics in their original 1976-82 run. (And the only recording the Scenics made after they became a four-piece in the summer of 1979.)
The boys reunited with Barry Steinberg, co-producer of the recordings featured on the SUNSHINE WORLD CD, and went into a twelve track studio for the first time. Result? layered guitars, handclaps, harmonies.
One song each from Andy Meyers (KAREN, a freshly-scribed new-love pop song with choir loft harmonies) and Ken Badger (SEE ME SMILE, originally recorded at the first Scenics studio session in the summer of '77, featuring a dandy pop chorus and Ken's patented lead guitar sound on an extended instrumental coda.)
Ken Badger: guitar, vocals
Andrew Meyers: guitar, vocals
Ken Fox: bass, vocals
Mark Perkell: drums
Produced by Barry Steinburg and The Scenics
Engineered by Ray Soldiuk and Barry Steinburg
