But news that said CD also contains 11 unreleased bonus tracks drawn straight from the band's archives…well, that's cause for a national holiday among certain quarters of rock 'n' roll fandom! Andy Paley was the lead singer and songwriter for the legendary Boston band the Sidewinders and played with the Modern Lovers, while Jonathan was a member of CBGB's fixture Mong before the siblings formed the Paley Brothers in 1975, and were signed to Sire Records soon thereafter. However, while the band was a favorite of Sire label owner Seymour Stein, and their good looks put them on the covers of teeny bopper magazines, the Paley Brothers only recorded one LP and several singles of sweetly harmonious power pop for Sire that have since become serious cult classics. The brothers then went their separate ways: Andy went on to produce and/or write for such acts as Madonna, k.d. lang, Brian Wilson, Jerry Lee Lewis, Elton John, Brenda Lee, Little Richard, and SpongeBob SquarePants, and Jonathan played with and/or produced such bands as the Nervous Eaters, the Dogmatics, Band 19, Skirt, Shrapnel, Classic Ruins, and the Reflectors as well as composing for soundtracks. Now, 35 years after the release of their lone album, the Paley Brothers are back with a collection of 26 tracks they compiled and polished in the studio, their complete recordings including the entire 1978 self-titled release on Sire produced by Earl Mankey and the singles they recorded for the label produced by Jimmy Iovine, plus the version of "Come On Let's Go" they recorded with the Ramones that was on the Rock and Roll High School soundtrack; the song "Jacques Cousteau" they recorded under the name The Young Jacques; and 11 unreleased tracks, highlighted by two from their 1978 Madison Square Garden gig opening for Shaun Cassidy and a track they recorded for Sire, "Baby, Let's Stick Together," that was produced by none other than Phil Spector. Gene Sculatti's liner notes include copious quotes from the Paley Brothers, testimonials from such luminaries as Seymour Stein, and photos from their private archive. The power pop release of the year, decade or even century! ## Images ![The Complete Recordings - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/810cc1R-sgL.jpg) ![The Complete Recordings - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71mjLPT-whL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ VERY WELL DONE LONG OVERDUE RE ISSUE *by E***. on Reviewed in the United States on October 2, 2013* this is certainly a well done LONG over due reissue of this power pop classic from 1979, i know this came out in japan on papersleeve around 10 years or so ago and as quick as it came out it went oop and then on e bay the damn cd was going for silly prices so im glad i waited a decade to get this on cd, i bought this lp in 1979 and way back then i was not to impressed as my ears where more in tune with heavy metal and punk at that time, anyway revisiting this album was a pleasure!!!!! the remastering is awesome on here and the booklet pretty fat with tons of information about this power pop classic, by 1981 or so i dont know what happened to the paley brothers but this album along with some 45s between 1978 and 1980 are pretty much all here even with some live bonus stuff i never heard before, i would say in the 76 minutes this cd takes to play you probably get everything from the old vaults they had packed away, if you enjoyed the power pop scene of the late 70s and you liked records by THE SHOES, THE PEZBAND, THE RUBINOOS, OFF BROADWAY AND most of the great acts that came out of the chicgo / indianapolis power pop scen i think it is safe to say YOU WILL REALLY ENJOY THIS CD, these guys where from new england and used to play cbgb, maxes kansas city and all the old legendary clubs in the village in nyc back in its heyday, the paley brothers played here a lot with bands like THE SHIRTS and all, this is a very upbeat uptempo record and it is packed with everything a popwer pop fans loves, also the song from rock n roll high school is awesome but sadley that was as far as the paley brothers ever got. today in 2013 fortunatally we have this great reissue to bring us back to when times where much better, play loud and enjoy!!!!!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I love this album! *by B***R on Reviewed in the United States on June 11, 2014* This is a great recording. I bought it months ago, when it first came out. It was stolen from my car, and now I HAVE TO replace it, because I just don't get tired of it.Like a fine wine, there's a lot of complexity...deceptively simple and upbeat on the surface, with undercurrents of Beach Boys and Everly Brothers harmonies, Ramones driving beat, classic rock n roll excitement, Motown ideas. Like most geniuses, they absorb everything useful and turn it into something new and uniquely their own. Amazing that this sounds new, after 35 years or so. I think that back in the 70's and 80's the music industry didn't know what to do with the Paley Brothers because they were too far ahead of their time and simply too in love with the music to care about pigeon-holing themselves.Don't miss this! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Paley Brothers Rock *by D***Y on Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2013* This is a great collection of fantastic power pop tunes from this under-rated New Wave era band. If you are a fan of late 70's early 80's power pop don't miss this one! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pe/products/12304543-the-complete-recordings](https://www.desertcart.pe/products/12304543-the-complete-recordings) --- *Product available on Desertcart Peru* *Store origin: PE* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
