191) Howard Jones-Dream Into Action 1985

Av Mikael Persson - 25 september 2013 13:54

 


This 80's synth-pop album by one of the most popular artists of the era was Jones 2nd. It reached nr. 2 on the British charts, probably because he had had great success with he's first album the year before and that the song Things Can Only Get Better was a good song. The rest of the album does not include any hits or songs that touches  me, a case for many of the pop hit-artists in the 80's. Unfortunately a not so good album by one of my absolute favorites in the 80's, but it's never really bad though.


1)Things can only get better (8,0)

2)Life in one day (5,5)

3)Dream into action (6,5)

4)No one is to blame (5,0)

5)Look mama (7,0)

6)Assault and battery (6,5)

7)Automation (6,5)

8)Is there a difference? (6,0)

9)Elegy (5,0)

10)Speciality (6,0)

11)Why look for the key (6,5)

12)Hunger for the flesh (4,5)


Score: 6,08

    8 years into their albumreleasingcareer J. Geils Band released another album worth of rockin' and rollin' songs but this time they took a much calmer and poppier path and not all the songs are top class anymore. It seemes like they went out ...
