    • ]]>     Tinted WindowsYou may have heard rumors, and yes this band exists and it is not a joke.  Adam Schlesinger (Fountains of Wayne), James Iha (Smashing Pumpkins), Bun E.  Carlos (Cheap Trick) and Taylor Hanson (Hanson) have teamed up to form a superpop group.  I have had the privilege of previewing the album and it was everything I expected and hoped for.  People all over the blogosphere are finding themselves shocked at how enjoyable this album is.  But those same people have probably heard one song from both Hanson (“Mmmbop”) and Fountains of Wayne (“Stacy’s Mom”) and wrote them off.  But each of these guys have penned some pretty awesome, yet slightly sappy, pop songs over the past several years.  I don’t have any Tinted Windows for you to listen to yet, but here is a little bit on their origins to hold you over.
