E-I-E-I-O - THAT LOVE THANG (1988)
Ranked #166 in John Borack's Ultimate Power Pop Guide (2008)
Here are the few words written by John Borack in the book.
"A nice mixture of sassy roots-rock and pure pop, highlighted by the harmony fiesta "Words Falling Down" and the groovin' "Andy Warhol's Dead But I'm Not". The latter tune was penned by bassist Richard Szeluga, formerly of the late '70s Midwestern power pop act The Names (Why Can't It Be)".

and Richard Szeluga was also in a version of Cheap Trick for awhile in the mid 70s.....
yes Jim, and Mike Gorman (Off Broadway USA, Pezband) joined E.I.E.I.O. for their 3rd album
Thanks Angelo
Thanks for posting this. Words Falling Down is a gem.
Wow, nice. Thanks, Angelo
Way cool! Thank you.
Hi Angelo, thanks to post this great album, please could you post the first "Land Of Opportunity"?

Land of Opportunity was a gem that is still getting heavy rotation in my world.
Excellent post, Angelo. This band have gone far too long without proper recognition. Twang Pop might be off-putting on paper but E.I.E.I.O. made some amazing music. Compulsory download for power pop enthusiasts.
@bigcravings, I know it is a great album, please could you post it?

@Anonymous (you can post a name here), I'll post it later this week.
