The 1980's were in full swing. This was it, man! 1985. This was the FUTURE! The sci-fi flicks of the fifties always looked at the mid-eighties as a place where convenience was king. There would be rocket packs on every person's back, children would be delivered by vending machines, and we'd all fly to work in our supersonic spaceships.

While this didn't turn out to be reality, at least George Orwell's dark view of 1984 was nowhere to be found. Sure, we had AIDS and Cocaine, but Reaganomics was in full swing and we wouldn't hear the words "New Kids On The Block" for another three years. As Americans, we had it all, and to make life even rosier, our favorite band reunited for a new set of concerts and a new project!

Moo was released on both cassette and vinyl. Unfortunately, Judy's fans who purchased Moo on cassette are all too often discovering that analog cassette tape is not a suitable archiving medium. Today, after hundreds of plays, the majority of Judy's fans are finding their Moo Cassettes stretched, muffled, and worn.

Those of us lucky enough to have purchased the vinyl, however, were not only treated to a product with more longevity, but also a spiffy LP liner complete with pictures of the band, and an inspiring quote from Zen Koan:

"Does a dog have Buddah nature?"
"Moo"

The sound of Moo showed a definite evolution in the group's use of technology. David had invested in a Korg Poly-800 keyboard which brought a new thickness to the sound of the album, and for the first time on a true Judy's recording, guest musicians were invited in. The guest horn section in "Don't Be A Hippie" helped to make it one of the album's more memorable tunes, simply because it sounded so "un-Judy's".

During this time as the band toured, they'd often perform dressed as milkmen. Who else but David, Jeff and Dane could make a milkman's uniform so damn cool?
