(Yeh I'm indulging myself with yet another obscure power pop post. :oops: Forgive me ...)

I'm almost three months late with this but I didn't realise it had been released yet. Shake Some Action is a Seattle band from the Posies/Super Deluxe school, featuring ex-members of the Jeunes, who sadly never made it big. The music actually sounds a bit more like the Hoodoo Gurus, Someloves, Orange Humble Band, You Am I ... Aussie style power pop ... not surprising, I guess, since Shake Some Action's lead singer/writer is actually Australian by birth.

Audio samples and a complete tracklisting are available at Amazon:

And here's a slightly longer, slightly higher quality sample of the song "Complicated" to give y'all a better idea of just how good SSA are.
