THE MOD FRAMES (STILL SMILING TODAY SINGLE)

Excellent record from I'm assuming the New York area. I looked around for quite a bit and came up empty. There's nothing on the sleeve either, not even a date. After looking around it seems it's from 1979. Still smiling today is a great 60's influenced Powerpop track and in my opinion, the better of the two songs. Little Miss Lonelyheart is a solid track as well. I know absolutely nothing about these guy's so, if you have any info please feel free to share it with us.

I picked up an extremely beat up copy of this 45 awhile back simply because it had the word mod in their name. Never thought I'd see it up on the net.

Just discovered these posts.
I was one of the 2 musicians who founded the Mod Frames. Billy wrote our first single - "Still Smiling Today" - while I wrote our second single "Anyone After You".
Thanks for the kind words! Nice to see that the Frames are still alive...!!
All the best,
Ben (Mod Frames)

It's worth noting that the "Billy" mentioned here is Billy Altman, then the editor of CREEM Magazine. I first heard of The Mod Frames via an ad in CREEM.
