I have the Doug and the Slugs LP with Love Shines on it. I used to see them play around here in clubs I think? I actually do not remember where or if I saw them but I think I did. An old friend turned me onto them in the early to mid 80's. It is on the Avion /Ritdong label. Thanks for taking me down memory lane~
I'm being a slug today too. I've never heard any music by that band. I love the 80's graphics and I'm still drawn to used albums in the bins when they have that style.
@DoctorDeadwax Back in the 80's, I wrote off Doug & the Slugs as too much of a pop band until I listened more closely to their later LP's. They had some great writing and polish.
