Highly recommended.

Required listening for any self-respecting power pop fan. Tom Marolda would go on to release at least four more records under the moniker The Toms but none of them reached the high level achieved on his debut, which is sheer power pop brilliance.

"THE TOMS was originally released in 1979. The project of TOM MAROLDA, a New Jersey musician, he recorded the album in his home studio, playing all the instruments himself.

In the years since its release, it's become a highly prized treasure amongst power pop fans around the world, at least those lucky enough to discover it. Beatlesque melodies abound on a record that sounds anything but lo-fi." - John M. Borack, author, Shake Some Action 2.0: An Updated Guide to the 200 Greatest Power Pop Albums.
