My buddies Will and Paul were mixing it up in Hollywood when they heard this gem from Los Angeles 80's band Missing Persons. When I saw them a few hours later they couldn't stop telling me about it. Turns out they were right, Walking In LA is a solid little new-wave toe-tapper.
Singer/Playboy bunny Dale Bozzio and drummer Terry Bozzio met and married while playing with Frank Zappa. They would go on to form Missing Persons with Warren Cuccurullo who shared Bozzio's attitude about clothing would also play with Duran Duran members along with Terry Bozzio. Missing Persons are probably best known for their songs Words and Destination Unknown.
Oh, and if you were wondering, it's true, there's nobody walking in LA.
Listen to Walking In LA (zshare) by Missing Persons.
