Middling Album But...

"The Song "Another Lover" is on this which redeems the cd to a degree. IMHO, "Another Lover" is one catchy, infectious, and well crafted pop song. Definitely one of the best 80s mainstream pop tunes around. There is the more familiar radio edit of this tune floating around (and I actually prefer that most) but the album version here is decent enough.



Other than that, nothing else on the album really stands apart except for the follow up single to "Another Lover", "Into You" which is also a winner. Since this cd is next to impossible to find, I would advise it on the merits of pop appeal to anyone with a penchant for 80s synth laced top 40. Again - "Another Lover" is well worth the find and "Into You" is respectable enough as far as pop goes.

Mediocre 80's 'gem'

"I say this is a 'gem' only because the CD is exceptionally hard to find, no longer in print, and basically available only second hand these days. In addition, the song 'Another Lover' is also hard to find these days and basically is about the only reason one would acquire this album to obtain a clean copy of that catchy song. Also, 'Into You' is a favorite of mine...both songs bring back fond memories."
