]]> Lyres “On Fyre” 1984. New Rose Records. Their first studio full-length release, all 60′s garagey, grungy guitar and pounding organs, tambourines! The Lyres played at the Cactus Club here in Milwaukee last night. I didn’t go (stayed home with the kiddo), but the husband did – and of course he’s still asleep so I cannot review the show from his perspective here. BUT – the album: awesome! Melodic and not overly nostalgic, forward-looking retro.

“Don’t Give It Up Now” leads off the album with a perfect 60′s vibe, Side 2 overtly gives reference to the greats of garage, the Kinks, with a cover “Tired of Waiting” “Also by the Kinks, Lyres’ “Love Me Till the Sun Shines” is probably the track that most feels like it truly belongs in the summer of love rather than the summer of Reagan.

Wishing I would have made it out last night to see the band but at least I have the vinyl to enjoy (and I’m sure someone will post a recording of the show on You Tube or whatever).
