The Beat (also known as Paul Collins' Beat) was a power pop band that formed in Los Angeles, California, United States in 1977. The band has been led through several incarnations by singer-songwriter and guitarist Paul Collins, the self-proclaimed 'King of Power Pop'. Fusing the energy of punk with pop hooks, he's had a large underground following, with the Beat's 1979 self-titled album in particular reviving critical praise.

And although The Magnolias were a few years younger than these bands, passage of time has revealed what fans knew since the Reagan years at their best, The Magnolias were second to none.
