Song of the Week-Rocket Flare

Comet is a local band from back in the day.  A great band.  I picked up the 45 for this song when it came out and hunted down Chandelier Musings, that this song is on also.  When I tried to catch them live, they always seemed to have to cancel.  Comet took a break around 1997 or 98, I think?  I figured they were gone for good when an excellent EP came out called Feathers from the WIng in 2005.   Naturally, I was super excited for shows and a new record, but nothing materialized.  Everything I can find on them suggests to me that they're not in any hurry, that their lives and familes are the'r main priority.  And they make great spacey, dreamy, beautiful pop songs that never get old to me.  If you like this song, I suggest trying to track down their stuff it doesn't disappoint.

 

Enjoy!
