The Come Ons Officially Disbanded

Well, nuts. The greatest band from the old Detroit scene to never really break out on its own in the music world at large, the Come Ons, officially disbanded today, though the trio had not been a functioning unit for some years.
What is left behind is an impressively thorough catalog by a band that never really got around much and really should have. The first two LP's - the self-titled and Hip Check! were perfect bits of dancey-soul rock n roll though each with their own unique tempo. Everything on the self-titled is a hit but "Whatcha Got?" and "I Get So Excited" slightly slip ahead as the standouts, whereas on the funkier, sexier Hip Check!, "Mesmerizer" was the real highlight of highlights. The second pair of LP's took the band in different directions and most of it worked completely and all of it was substantive. One track on The Ghetto Years was reworked for the follow-up (and ultimately final) LP, Stars: "FKS". The Stars version is just about one of the single greatest recordings ever done, a definitive stamp on the pop balladry of this decade. It showcased the band's ability to write the perfect song.
The spirit lives on through MoPop Music, where the latest single is a collaboration between Come Ons frontgal Deanne Iovan (also of Detroit pop duo Sunshine Doray) and Britain's favorite troubador, Mr. David Viner. Meanwhile, drummer Pat Pantano continues to drum for the Dirtbombs, not a bad gig at all.
