NEW RADICALS’ 1998 ALBUM,MAYBE YOU’VE BEEN BRAINWASHED TOO, GETS FIRST-EVER VINYL RELEASE AS 2-LP SET.
Album includes hit single “You Get What You Give” and “Someday We’ll Know”
New Radicals were an American alternative band formed by singer-songwriter Gregg Alexander. Maybe You’ve Been Brainwashed Too, the 1998 MCA Records release – featuring the hit single “You Get What You Give” – is now being reissued by Interscope/UMe on vinyl for the first time as a 2-LP set
After a pair of late-‘80s, early-‘90s solo albums, Alexander put together a group with a wide range of collaborators including Danielle Brisebois, best known for her roles in All in the Family, as well as future Paul McCartney guitarist Rusty Anderson, and “Thriller” keyboardist Greg Phillinganes to form the band and record Maybe You’ve Been Brainwashed Too. The band’s rock-pop-funk, blue-eyed soul hybrid, which was released on October 20, 1998, was praised by critics, who said it had its own “unique, oddball bounce” and compared it to Todd Rundgren, and Prince, among others.
The album went platinum in America, and proved even more popular around the world, cracking the top 10 in the U.K. as well as many other territories. The first single, “You Get What You Give,” was a smash hit on the Billboard Hot 100, topped the charts in Canada and New Zealand and was in the Top 5 in the U.K. In addition to its success on the Pop Radio charts, the song also crossed music genres and peaked in the top 10 of the Billboard Modern Rock chart.
