This is the swedish popartist Harpo's 4th album. It consists of pop and light rock inspired by the popular music at the time and that also means those terrible disco wahwah-guitars that was popular then. There's a lot of humour in Harpo's lyrics and music and on this album some of the swedish pop- and rockelite-musicians of the time contributes with their playing. But it does not help much. There are a couple of listanable songs but not much more. The album reached nr. 4 on the swedish charts.

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 ...
