Washington D.C.'s Slickee Boys' fourth and final "proper" album (not including compilations or live releases), ''Fashionably Late'' was released (on LP and CD) in early 1988 by the French New Rose label. That summer, they toured Europe (documented on their ''Live at Last'' album); soon afterwards, founding member Kim Kane departed to focus on his newer band, Date Bait. After a few more years of live shows, the Slickee Boys called it quits (reunion shows have taken place more or less annually since the early 1990s). The song "Your Autumn Eyes", which was released as a single during the summer of 1987 (the same version which appears on the album), was quite a departure for the band—a melancholy waltz-time ballad with an intense bridge/guitar solo. Most of the rest of the album, however, was what fans had come to expect from the band. Along with original songs written by members of the band, there are two cover songs: "You Can Run" was originally released by D.C.'s (The) Razz, and "The Mean Screen" was by the Gizmos (long-time friends of the Slickee Boys). The compact disc version includes as bonus tracks both songs from the b-side of the "Your Autumn Eyes" 7"—an original, "Eye to Eye" and a cover of Gary Lewis and the Playboys' "Without a Word of Warning". ==Track listing== #"Sleepless Nights" – 2:21 (John Chumbris) #"Hesitation" – 3:25 (Chumbris, Mark Noone) #"The Missing Part" – 2:32 (Chumbris) #"You Can Run" – 3:30 (Tommy Keene, Michael Reidy) #"Blind Deaf & Dumb" – 2:50 (Marshall Keith) #"The Mean Screen" – 1:57 (Scott Duhamel, Eddie Flowers, Kenne Highland) #"Your Autumn Eyes" – 4:55 (Kim Kane, Keith, Noone) #"Droppin' Off to Sleep" – 4:28 (Noone) #"The Dive" – 4:45 (Noone) #"If I Could Lie" – 4:27 (Keith, Noone) #"Love Twilight" – 3:33 (Kane, Keith) #"Eye to Eye" – 3:39 (Noone) #"Without a Word of Warning" – 2:20 (Snuff Garrett, Leon Russell, Gary Lewis) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fashionably Late (The Slickee Boys album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
