Tony went on to play with artists like Matthew Sweet, John Doe and Neil Young. The band managed two albums in the mid 80s, before drugs and disarray did them in. Then we hear from the lively Tony Marsico of the Cruzados. Now they're enjoying playing 80s festivals and releasing a new box set on Cherry Red Records this weekend.

Finally, a couple years ago they came back "together" for a long-awaited third album called Together that has been welcomed warmly. Everyone knows the Vapors from their enduring hit "Turning Japanese", but the fantastic band only managed two great albums in the early 80s before calling it quits. We start with Vapors bassist Steve Smith. This week is a special two-fer: two great bass players from two great 80s bands that are releasing new music this weekend.
