*FOR YOUR LISTENING ENJOYMENT ONLY*

What is the openVAULT you ask? It's quite simple. Music that for lack of a better analogy, has been locked away from the general public. What has happened to the musical landscape is sickening. Far too many artists go largely unnoticed. We are here to change that. To drive the point home, this will not be some "best of" list aka Rolling Stone. No "Stairway", no "Walrus", just music that should be heard. Here at openVAULT you're going to be forced off the beaten path more often than not.

It'll be good for you, trust us.

Every song you will hear is from our private collection, so please NO copying, downloading or reproducing these videos in any form for this is strictly prohibited. You know as in illegal, a no-no. As stated before these tunes are FOR YOUR LISTENING ENJOYMENT ONLY! We won't sell, trade, or give up any mp3s, so if you're here for that purpose please step aside, you're blocking the view of others.

The Plimsouls - Now - 1981.The Plimsouls foram uma banda de power pop e pop rock da época da new wave norte-americana, encaixavam-se perfeitamente com o movimento pós-punk de bandas de guitarra. Sua música "A Million Miles Away" atingiu as posições #11 da Mainstream Rock (1982) e #82 da Billboard Hot 100 (1983).

Back in the late 70's/early 80's, it seemed like you either had to be Disco or Punk to have a following. Every once in awhile, there would be a band that was outside the box for the times. Although short lived, The Plimsouls were a power pop group that had some good catchy tunes. If you've heard of them, you might have heard "Million Miles Away" on a rare occasion on the radio, but this one, "NOW", is a peppy, catchy tune that harkens back to the early beatles. Hope you enjoy.

I saw them few times. Once at the Golden Bear and a few times at the Barn in Carson. Almost got kicked out of Golden Bear for dancing to the Plimsouls.

My son is a dj at a college radio station and I get him to play all this old stuff that would never be played on the radio, it's awesome. Best part is he loves it too ♥

I remember ditching school to see them play a free concert that was almost cancelled due to rain at Tower Records' parking lot in Anaheim back in 1983.

Had never heard this, and I was in high school in the '80s. Somehow I acquired this 45 (promo), and came across it as I was listing records on eBay. What a great song! Talk about a hook!

Excellent band,never got the air play they deserve because most radio stations played the same 20 songs over and over. I never hear this on the radio anymore,but you will hear a song from the same year that sucks and they still play it all the time.
