Winter Hours was a band from New Jersey in the 1980s that I often consider one of the most underrated bands to ever come from the state. They had beautiful songs with guitar work that always reminded me of R.E.M. or the Byrds.
They had some songs do well on the modern rock charts, but it's a shame they never made it big. They have a cult-like following today.
The song "Ten Minutes" from this album is one of my favorites by any artist from New Jersey.
The Makin Waves Song of the Week is "Big Black Car" from "My Island," the third album from Jersey rocker Part Time Baby, aka singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Mike Goldstein.

The Philadelphia-based group consists of six veteran musicians intent on delivering.
