    • Scott McCARL [USA]
    Biography The Raspberries were important because they brought to pop a generic style, with so many good ideas that their approach remains vital today. They can be remembered as the ones who incorporated into the Fab Four legacy some aspects of the `60s/`70s the Beatles themselves never tackled (e.g. that "mod" approach). Even if he solely appeared on the fourth and last Raspberries album and although he grew up in the midwest, McCarl epitomizes more than ever that myth of Cleveland stamped as a "new Liverpool" back in the early `70's. He started out in Omaha, Nebraska with an outfit called Yellow Hair featuring Tom Sorrells on drums. This and the following of the story with The Raspberries is history and it falls outside the guide's time span but in the late `70s McCarl cut a lot of highly "red-album-ish" Beatle-esque demos which have resurfaced on his 1997 CD "Play On...".www.scottmccarl.webprovider.com

    • The MOBERLYS [Seattle, Washington]
    Biography The Moberlys songs possessed that kind of melodies that take hairpin bends when you thought you were speeding straight ahead ; hung on to your seat the first time, you see yourself asking for more ! If you once qualified powerpop as somewhat of a minor league that would have been less ambitious but much more fun and heartfelt, even so you should consider that The Moberlys would have deserved to accede to the highest competition.
