When the dB’s first album (Stands for Decibels) came out in 1981, it was a delight—followed by the equally great Repercussion.
What I didn’t know was that Holsapple, Stamey and Mitch Easter were in a band together called Rittenhouse Square in 1972. While their LP is basically impossible to find (unless you want to spend > $1000, or get really lucky at a Goodwill), it's available on the 'tube:
