Midnight Mission

Acclaimed and expanded debut from West Coast favorites. Taking the early ’80s L.A. club scene by storm, The Textones released an EP in the U.K. and a single in the U.S. But it was after singer/guitarist Carla Olson added guitarist George Callins, multi-instrumentalist Tom Junior Morgan, bassist Joe Read, and former Dwight Twilley Band member Phil Seymour on drums to the line-up that the magic truly happened. The Textones’ debut album, Midnight Mission, encompassed everything they’d done, and took it a step further. This reissue features six unissued bonus tracks—three songs recorded for the film Sylvester, as well as a trio of live cuts from their performance on Rock Of The 80’s, recorded at The Palace in Hollywood.
