A compilation of talented local acts from Wisconsin's capital city.

Standout artists: The And, The Rage

Track by track:

1. Donna Rawlins Band - "Ooh Boy": Female-fronted AOR/pop rock. The most well-known act on this comp.
2. The Vers - "More Rock & Roll": New wave/power pop that sounds like Billy Idol fronting Talking Heads.
3. Whiz Kid - "Play Dirty": Hard rock like Deep Purple.
4. The Ritz - "Straight Talkin'": '70s-style rock with organ and a synthesizer solo.
5. The Tapes - "The Hurtin's Alright": Hard rock.
6. The Shakedown Band - "Heat It Up": This comical song starts out slow and bluesy with some harmonica, then turns into a funky mid-tempo affair with saxophone added to the mix.
7. The And - "How Busy Is He": The new wave band puts out this power pop song which is more guitar-centered than their later material.
8. Java - "Say Wha Choo Mean": Female-fronted R&B/funk rock. Think Steely Dan but with female vocals.
9. Presence - "Lonely Nights": New wave/power pop with heavy guitars.
10. Bruce Koenig Band - "My Money Is Funny": Rock 'n' roll with humorous lyrics. Organ, guitar, and harmonica have their moments here. Bruce Koenig's voice sounds similar to that of Elliot Lurie of Looking Glass.
11. The Rage - "Going Fast Slowly": New wave/power pop with a slight Producers vibe.
