Just Desserts: Complete Waitresses

Just Desserts: Complete Waitresses

We know what boys (and girls) like!

Although they made their mark on popular culture with the early-1980s anthems I Know What Boys Like and Christmas Wrapping, The Waitresses were no newwave flash in the pan.

While nearly every alternative-pop collection features a song from The Waitresses, their recorded tenure has been incomplete in the digital realm for decades. In fact, none of the band s original releases have been released in full on CD domestically. Omnivore Recordings is righting that wrong with Just Desserts: The Complete Waitresses. Co-produced by GrammyÂ® winner Bill Levenson and the group s Chris Butler, this is the first collection of the band's Polydor Records output. A two-CD set, filled with delicious offerings.

The meal begins with their debut, Wasn't Tomorrow Wonderful? , which features the hits I Know What Boys Like and No Guilt. Next, I Could Rule The World If I Could Only Get The Parts, which contains the theme to TV's Square Pegs (which starred a young Sarah Jessica Parker), as well as the holiday staple, Christmas Wrapping. As a bonus gift, that single's long out-of -print B-side, Hangover 1/1/83 , also makes its CD debut.

Disc two delivers Bruiseology, co-produced by Butler and Hugh Padgham (Genesis, Human League, XTC). Make The Weather was the single, and no collection is complete without the closer They're All Out Of Liquor, Let's Find Another Party. A previously unissued version of the title cut and two remixes of Disc One s Bread & Butter finish the dining experience.

It's a full-course meal of The Waitresses, and there s no wait and no dress code. Feel free to wear your parachute pants, or come as you are for Just Desserts: The Complete Waitresses.
