'Til Tuesday (often written as til tuesday) was an American new
wave band formed in Boston in 1982. Its original lineup was
bassist/vocalist Aimee Mann, guitarist/vocalist Robert Holmes
keyboardist Joey Pesce, and drummer Michael Hausman. They are best
know for their top 10 smash "Voices Carry"
'Til Tuesday's debut album, Voices Carry, contains hip photo
imagery (Aimee Mann's smile on the back is priceless and
beautiful) and excellent songwriting, all credited to drummer
Michael Hausman, guitarist Robert Holmes, keyboard player Joey
Pesce, and bassist/singer Aimee Mann. The follow-up would be more
specific as to who wrote what. While most bands from Boston
suffered from lack of production, Mike Thorne does a decent job on
much of the album and excellent work on the title track. Former
manager Randall Barbera spoke with this writer prior to the
album's recording, when Human League/Pete Shelley producer Martin
Rushent was being considered for the task. The question for fans
was, like the Cars before them, what was wrong with the hit demo
of "Love in a Vacuum," which saturated Boston airwaves prior to
the record deal? As good a job as Mike Thorne did on the song
"Voices Carry," the world at large has not heard the inspired and
innovative recording that was the original "Love in a Vacuum." If
memory serves, Will Garrett did the production work, and like
certain tracks by the band Private Lightning, the demo to "Love in
a Vacuum" was superior to what came out on Epic. As Roy Thomas
Baker polished "Just What I Needed" for the Cars, filling it with
Queen-style thickness, the new wave edge of the demo, on release
on Rhino's Cars Deluxe, will give a good example of the transition
these songs go through. The big difference is that the original
"Love in a Vacuum" was perfect and needed no changing, and the
Mike Thorne version is over-produced, creating a good album track
when the true follow-up hit was actually in hand. Epic/Legacy
simply has to expand this disc with the original 'Til Tuesday
demos. "Don't Watch Me Bleed" has the same kind of mesmerizing
bass that makes "Voices Carry" so captivating, while the final
track, "Sleep," could be the Human League going deep into the
underground. The song would also work well with a girl group hero
like Barbara Harris of the Toys, showing the versatility of this
unique ensemble. Aimee Mann's major-label debut shows rapid
maturity when compared to her Bark Along With the Young Snakes EP
and there's something about this combination of Pesce, Hausman
and the brilliant Robert Holmes that would make a 'Til Tuesday
reunion a welcome thing. The haunting lyrics and dark tones of the
keys and bass on songs like "I Could Get Used to This" or "No More
Crying" separate this recording from the work of similar '80s
bands. "Looking Over My Shoulder" has a bubbling intensity which
Holmes' guitar adds drama to. Voices Carry may have achieved
success because of the MTV video, but there were nine other songs
to go along with the hit, and this album and its follow-ups should
have had as much commercial success as the Cars, because
artistically, they are equal to that band's dynamic debut
