Limited Warranty – Limited Warranty (1986) [Wounded Bird Records Reissue 2007]
Limited Warranty was one of the many groups that exploded out of the 1980’s Minneapolis music scene. The core members were Dale Goulett (vocals, guitar), Greg Sotebeer (vocals, bass), Erik Newman (guitar), Jerry Brunskil (drums, vocals) and Paul Hartwig (keys). Newman or Brunskill penned most of the tunes.
Things took off for LW when they won Star Search in 1985. They used their winnings to beef up the production of their live show and to record a two song EP with Psychedelic Furs drummer Vince Ely.
The band’s good fortune continued in 1986 as they won an unprecedented 11 Minnesota Music Awards including Best Band and Best Recording for “This Is Serious”. They followed up by signing with legendary manager Bill Graham of San Francisco which landed them arena opening spots for such acts as Tina Turner, Rick Springfield, Tom Petty, The Beach Boys, Tears For Fears and even a lengthy tour with Eddie Money.
