The Box - Closer Together

Guitarist Claude Thibeault, bassist Jean-Pierre Brie, drummer Phillipe Bernard and keyboard player Guy Pisapia asked vocalist Jean-Marc Pisapia to join them as the Box in 1982. He agreed, and the band released their first album (self-titled) two years later. Although all the members were French Canadian, they mostly sang in English. All the Time, All the Time, All the Time followed in 1985, but the band didn't make it in Canada until 1987's Closer Together. Their last album was The Pleasure and the Pain in 1990; after Bernand and Guy Pisapia left in 1992, the greatest hits compilation A Decade of the Box was released in 1993.

People need to give each other a chance instead of criticizing each othet,this song tells us all about that.

This whole album was great. I still have it on cassette but I don't have a player that I'd trust not to eat it. Who knew back in the 80s that your cassettes would be useless and you'd end up listening to the old tunes over the internet on a computer that fits in your hand.

The Box were hardcore new wavers when they first started out, but they mellowed as time went on. I mean, these are the dudes who once bragged about dancing on the grave of rock n roll! That's hardcore new wave right there.

I spent the spring semester of 1987 at McGill as a visiting student. This song always takes me back. I probably wouldn't have paid much attention to it if it received any airplay in the U.S.A. However, it was one of the only 8 or 9 songs on CHOM's painfully short playlist. Never mind it already being in heavy rotation on Much Music. I got to watch it every night of the week on every screen in Peel Pub. It eventually grew on me. I had no choice in the matter. :-)

I saw them in concert back in the late 80's - they were the opening act for Chris De Burgh and they put on a fabulous show.
