I first heard Missing Persons on 91.1 WRVU in Nashville, Tennessee. It was the radio station for Vanderbilt University and the only place in town that you could here New Wave music in the early 80's. I went out and bought the EP cassette immediately. I also remember watching the movie "Lunch Wagon" which featured the group (someone else's review couldn't remember the title). Naked women and Missing Persons. Does it get any better? Singer Dale Bozzio was a former nude model anyway. Mental Hopscotch remains my favorite song.
September 27, 2008Up until now, I only listened to Missing Persons "hits" which included "Walkin In L.A" "It Ain't Nunya", "Words" and "Destination Unknown". I finally ventured into the "Unknown" and listened to some of their OTHER songs. I now love "Mental Hopscotch" and "Colour In Your Life". "i Like Boyz" is a cool song, and "No Secrets" is pretty funky too. What I love about Missing Persons is thier sound is so distinctive and captures that dark lurid 80's vibe. I picture rain soaked streets at night when there wasn't as many people around. Puddles glowing in neon refecting the street lights and electric signs from above. It's music for 80's tramps that roamed alone, like me. The mystery and the night.
September 17, 2008While I remember this band and their music, one of the smartest individuals from that band went on to make some of the best instrumental music I've ever heard...Patrick O'hearn went on to record some of the best and most enjoyable music for movies and although he doesn't tour I still listen to his music on a daily basis and if your not familiar with his music look it up and listen to some of the tracks and I can guarantee that you'll soon be buying up all his cd's,"yes" that's how good it is...
September 8, 2008 |  | When will they release a DVD of their videos? |  |
I loved this group! The only song I wanted on the disc which was not was Surrender your Heart-which they had a video for which I remember vividly.
I wish I would have seen them live in their hey-days. I heard they may be in the Regeneration tour 2008 but not in my town.
Anyone know if they will be releasing a Best of Missing Persons DVD with videos and/or live performances?
I will be first in line to buy.
June 24, 2008Very underated band. Good musician's and good writers. The lead singer was fun to watch and listen to. I especially like the guitar player and drummer.
