Pure Pop was released in 2007 by the wonderful folks at Revelator Press. Here it is in its original format! You can still find other downloadable titles at revelatorpress.blogspot.com.

“Pure Pop is just that—a little bit of Coke, a little bit of homage to the Pops of the New York School, and a lot of heart. Tim Lane’s gracefully fluent lyrics are celebratory, immediate, full of feeling, and full of life. Without falling into sloppy sentimentality or clunky derivation, Lane conjures his own world while stealing fire from the masters.”

Lisa Jarnot / author of Black Dog Songs and Ring of Fire and more

Pure Pop delivers all of the delicious, unmitigated pleasure implied in its title. Tim Lane’s poems, jubilant and experientially engaged, prove that joy too is serious stuff.
