West Coast Doug recently brought me up to speed with veteran Vancouver underground power-pop guy, Robyn Stanley:
Back in 1980s, there was a Vancouver power-pop band called Fun With Numbers, who were great live. The leader of Fun With Numbers was Robin Stanley. Like most musicians he eventually settled down with a good job to raise a family. Music is his avocation and not his vocation. Robin Stanley has released three excellent solo albums; Mad Kingdom (2004), Chronic Empire (2007) and Cosmology (2012). Alongside Alejandro Escovedo's Big Station and Marty Stuart's Nashville Volume 1: Tear The Woodpile Down, Robin Stanley Cosmology is one of my favourite albums of 2012 so far
P.S.. Marty has the best hair!
