Sweet Bird of Youth is a record that rolls over you like sweet, prickly tsunami. Recorded originally by Chris Lopez on cheap keyboard and guitar, the songs were brought to the rest of the band in demo form. Each member (and a few select guests) recorded their parts on top of this, resulting in a swelling, Spector-worthy spectacle in nearly every song. Even though it's too of a piece to be tagged with that near-obligatory double LP descriptor, "sprawling", the Rock A Teens know just when to switch of the formula on Sweet Bird of Youth to keep it from getting too godawful draggy (OK, maybe they could have saved a COUPLE of songs for b-sides). The sticky, sing-songy melody of "Lee Knows Every Raindrop", for example, shows the band's poppy side while the fuzzy blast of "Our Future Was Then" cuts through the dramatics to deliver some kick to the record's second half.

Sweet Bird of Youth is a 1959 play by Tennessee Williams which tells the story of a gigolo and drifter, Chance Wayne, who returns to his home town as the companion of a faded movie star, Alexandra Del Lago (travelling incognito as Princess Kosmonopolis), whom he hopes to use to help him break into the movies. The main reason for his homecoming is to get back what he had in his youth: primarily, his old girlfriend, whose father had run him out of town years before.
