New Mullet on Monday - The Call

Last October, when I featured The Call's Everywhere I Go as a Lost and Found Video, I neglected to mention whether or not the band was still around. I also neglected to notice that there were a couple of mullets in the band. So The Call gets a second mention, and members Tom Ferrier (guitar) and Jim Goodwin (keyboards) receive the honor of having worn our featured mullets of the week. As far as the first question goes, I have no definite answer (perhaps someone in the know will read this and enlighten us). All Music lists The Call as having broken up in 1990, while Wikipedia states that they are still active. The band's official website, as far as I can tell, has nothing about recent history, nor are there any tour dates. Whether or not they are officially disbanded, they don't seem to be doing a whole lot. Vocalist/bassist Michael Been is said to tour often -- as the sound engineer for his son's band, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club.

From the (pre-mullet) 1983 Album Modern Romans, here's The Walls Came Down. By the way, the keyboardist in this video is apparently Garth Hudson of The Band.
