sparkle*jets u.k. - Box Of Letters (2024) [Hi-Res]

In 2023, Orange County, CA pop legends SPARKLE*JETS U.K. surprised and delighted the global power pop community with their surprise return, and their first full-length album release in over 20 years…. and it was just the start of a new renaissance for the band that reaches a long anticipated peak in 2024. The album that signaled their resurgence – BEST OF FRIENDS – was as unique as the band itself: spread across two colored vinyl LPs, it was a loving and lavish tribute to their fellow travelers on the LA pop scene at the turn of the century. With fresh versions of underground classics by the band's peers of the era (including The Masticators, The Sugarplastic, Cockeyed Ghost, Stew and many more), it was a hit with those for those who remembered and a revelation for those who had only heard of the scene. An astonishing collection of perfect, punchy pop-hits-that-should-have-been, served up fresh in all-new versions by a band who knows them by heart, the album showed off the much-admired chops of – and undiminished chemistry between – founding members Michael Simmons, (vocals, guitar and keys) Susan West (vocals, guitar) and Jamie Knight (bass). As a project, it went beyond nostalgia and brought many of the LA pop scene veterans it celebrated back to the fore just as it marked a triumphant return for the band who recorded it. https://www.bigstirrecords.com/sparkle-jets-u-k
