i love that whole paul pena record.

karl robe…

his pop career crashed. he had big country hits for 20 years after that, and it ain't like he cleaned up his act on the chitlin circuit…

standard garbled band line up for an article of this type…

the only thing i really remember about high fidelity is when john cusack says something like "i'm about to sell five copies of the beta band," and then he plays "dry the rain". i still like that song.
