"I bought the "Body Blow" album in 1992 on on a stopover in New Zealand on my way to live in Southern California. It was the music that I had blaring in my car as I learned to navigate the California freeways. It was the music I partied to on the beach and at home. The songs are lyrically witty with occasional voyages into emotional waters. The music is inescapable. Impossible to ignore. You find yourself listening and tapping and singing along, whether you want to or not. A phenomenal collection of music that refuses to date."
