Oh man.. those were cool.. I HAVE to get this record on the next trip to the store
Checked out the debut:
I didn't know a single song off of this! It had some elements I wasn't familiar with but I liked. For example it had some doowoppey song that I thought Deborah Harry's voice was great for. I really liked this song in particular:
In The Flesh
(sexy and classy)
They also had a surf rock song as well with "In The Sun". I'm starting to see why people say that the group was so versatile as before listening I knew they had already dabbled in disco, punk, ska and even hip-hop on top of their regular material. "Man Overboard" is the catchiest track on the album. That one track has a lot of layers with it's Caribbean like vibe. I love the guitar in the last half of the song.
Man Overboard
The closing track is just fun. I love the yips and yahs! Everything about this song from the subject matter to the vocals to the frenzied drums to the closing moments is ridiculous in a good way!
