 'Round again: New old discs by Velvet Crush and Medicine Ball   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)

The reason I bring this up is that a couple of Crush discs arrived in the mail the other day, a reissue of their full-length debut, In The Presence of Greatness, and something called A Single Odessey.
The former was the band's first major musical statement, the power-pop chord progressions heard 'round the world.

With smokin' showcases at the prestigious SXSW Music Conference, and a rollicking live show at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame under their belt 60 Second Crush is currently touring in support of their new CD "Scratch" (Aural Pleasure Records).
