Disorderly Conduct

Billy Synth and The Turn-Ups, “Disorderly Conduct” (Tragik, 1983)
A fine example of the kind of kitchen-sink genre-mashing that “punk,” “new wave” etc. underwent in odd corners of middle America. This is basic greaser rock’n’roll that makes you think they would have sounded like J. Geils or Tom Petty a few years earlier, but here it’s snottier, more hard-edged and angular, with weird keyboard space-noises disrupting things from time to time for no apparent reason.
