The Young Rationals - Under Control (Mega rare 1984 US Private New Wave EP)

 

The Young Rationals were Massachusetts' answer to Donnie Iris and the Cruisers.
Nebbishy Steve Stone, who had the Buddy Holly look down pat, was a more charismatic frontman than most and a better songwriter than just about anyone else on the MA club scene, but thanks to Boston's fascination with terrible bands with zero songwriting talent, The Rationals didn't put the town under a wonderful hold.
Their songs had too much melody apparently.
Young Rationals debuted somewhere around 1983 with a delightfully goofy music video, "World's Collide" (sic), and followed it with an EP, "Under Control" (Recon, 1984), on what I think was drummer Tim Jackson's label.
(Jackson was also Robin Lane and the Chartbusters' drummer, and Robin's 1984 EP, "Heart Connection," is the only other record I have on the Recon label.)


Listen : A2. Under Control   &  A3. Evidence  

With the title track, Stone penned what those shitty Boston "legends" could only dream of writing -- the perfect 3 minute pop song.

The band split up shortly after the EP came out, leaving "World's Collide" unreleased for whatever reason.


Not the stuff I'm usually selling ... but a very interesting record !
