Muscler's Guide to Videonics

What the Supremes are to soul, and the Runaways are to punk, Tracy + The Plastics are to disco -- foxilicious combiners of dance-a-minute beats with everyone's favorite slow jams. Don't be surprised if listening station junkies dance on the ceiling of your emporium. Using their boss drum machine, MIDI Out Control! and Akai 612 Sampler, Tracy, Cola, and Nikki slap mental bumperstickers like "Lesbo-For-Disco + Kick 'Em In The Teeth" on your secret groove thing. Tracy in the lead crosses her fingers and belts it out. Nikki and Cola roll in the back, sneering through two dimensions.

Tracy + The Plastics shake to the lo-fi beats of a really cold basement and move to the anti-fi "I want a gold tooth" of VHS. They were brained in the fall of 1999 by Wynne Greenwood (formerly of the video-band Meme America), have released a 30-minute videotape, and appeared on the Mr. Lady compilation "Calling All Kinds and Queens." Recorded by Joe Preston of the Thrones.
