Beat the Clock was formed in Minneapolis in 1988. It consisted of Chris Beaty (vox/guitar), Tom Scott (vox/drums), Ken Chastain (vox/percussion/guitar/anything that moves), and Jim Anton (vox/bass). They released two self-produced albums, Beat the Clock and The Funk Bus, both on their own "Booty Rock" label. In addition, they contributed a track to the AIDS awareness fundraiser disc "Break the Silence", and produced an extremely limited-edition live cassette, "Beat the Clock - Live on the Psych Bike". After seven years of gigs and fun, they disbanded amicably in September of 1995 and the individual members went on to pursue other interests. Read more on Last.fm.
