Three Hour Tour


One of my favorite non-sixties bands ever.
This is their most welcome third release.
Check them out, you won't be sorry!!

Ten new songs from Darren Cooper's Three Hour Tour. Coop's joined by Adam Schmitt (bass) and Brad Steakley (drums) and the recordings feature guest appearances by John Richardson and Velvet Crush duo Paul Chastain and Ric Menck. A milestone event for fans of Power Pop, Three Hour Tour is back with their first album in over a decade! Brand new tunes from former Choo Choo Train/Stupid Cupids/Artificial Limbs guitarist Darren Cooper's Three Hour Tour, the long-awaited follow-up to his 90s output on Parasol Records. Darren is joined by an allstar cast for this batch of Power Pop in maximum melodic mode, for fans of Beatles, Badfinger, Raspberries, Velvet Crush, and The Posies!

INCREDIBLE!!!! Have always been crazy about Darin Coopers stuff(Three Hour Tour) since I first heard "love sick trip" on a Yellow Pills comp many many years ago! Then I was blown away by "1969" and simply couldn't believe that after disappearing for another 10+ years he returns with B-side Oblivion without missing a step, maybe his best yet, and believe it or not it has been left in my 6 cd car deck since I got it.
