Former Wall Of Voodoo lead singer, Stan Ridgway has a new album, out now, Neon Mirage, and apparently it is a good album.

By the way, Mexican Radio and Don't Box Me In, are really great songs.

Cool. Saw him play at KUKQ's Q-Fest in 1991 along with Material Issue, Front 242 and others.

Don't forget "Camouflage"! (1985)
Since I'm on a lyrics kick tonight:
There's a 5-minute version and a 7-minute version. The 7-minute version has two added sets of lyrics that don't appear in the 5-minute version.
Addition #1: after the first chorus
Well I was gonna ask him where he came from when we heard the bullets fly,
Comin' through the brush and all around our ears.
It was then I saw this big Marine, a lotta fire in his eyes.
And it was strange, but suddenly I forgot my fears.
Addition #2: after the last verse, an a capella epilogue:
So next time you're in a jungle fight and you feel a presence near,
Or hear a voice that in your mind will lodge,
Just be thankful that you're not alone and you've got some company,
From a big Marine the boys called Camouflage.
(Resume instrumentals, sing chorus, fade out to cadence as in the 5:00 version...)

I always thought that song was vaguely homoerotic!

Don't forget one of my favorite '80s angst themes:
