Album Description
2008 release, the long-lost sophomore album from the British quartet, which has remained shelved and unreleased since it was recorded in 1981. Crystal Tips & Mighty Mice is a classic record, from one of the best melodic Pop bands to emerge from Punk and has songs which sound as fresh and frisky now as they did back then. A successful live band, commanding big audiences and touring with big bands, even having U2 support them, The Photos ran out of steam and imploded, leaving stunning songs behind them like a trail of expensive litter. The CD has been re-mastered from the original master tapes, and will be warmly welcomed as one of the great 'lost' albums of the early '80s finally seeing the light of day. Cherry Red.

 I've been waiting for this for nearly three decades. December 20, 2008
The Photos were one of the best bands of the New Wave era. It's a crying shame that they never got the exposure they deserved. I heard "I'm So Attractive" on WNYU's New Afternoon Show, and I was hooked. I bought their album "The Photos" and loved every song. The tracks are quirky and fun and delivered by Wendy Wu in smashing style. The Photos have remained one of my favorite bands ever since, even as my musical tastes evolved. Over the years I scrounged up several singles of tracks from their second album, but the album itself was not to be had until now. I've been waiting almost three decades for this. My profuse thanks to whoever made this CD release happen. This is essential to any New Wave collection.
 Terrific CD, get them both! October 27, 2008
The Photos' American release was like the best of the two Photos British releases in one album, but it's great to have this cd to complete the best songs on the American release. In fact, the two Photos CDs together make for a great evening of British new wave rock. Buy them both!
