The Furys: Say Goodbye to the Black Sheep

(all images courtesy of the beloved MODPOPPUNK ARCHIVES)

The Furys were an L.A. band from the seventies who straddled the line between that town's punk and power-pop scenes, like a compromising position between The Weirdos and The Knack. (If you want to hear the truth about how they pissed all over The Knack, you need to go read this blog entry). The band released three singles and a 12" e.p. before splintering, and leaving behind the chant-along classic "Say Goodbye to the Black Sheep", which made it onto Rhino's D.I.,Y. series on the We're Desperate volume (see here).
