276) Nik Kershaw-The Riddle 1984

Av Mikael Persson - 19 januari 2016 17:00

 


Another one of the most popular pop-artists of the 1980's here with his 2nd album wich included the superhit "The Riddle". The album peaked at nr. 5 in Norway, nr. 8 in UK and New Zeeland, nr. 11 in Sweden, nr. 12 in Germany and reached good positions in many other countires. The album, apart from the 80's style synthpop, however has very obvious jazzinfluences and is not very good if you want to hear 80's popmusic since the songs are very odd and not following "rules". Actually I think the songs are rather boring, but then again I'm not into jazz.

    Album number two from this incredible supergroup that made some unforgettable music in the 1980's! This is again melodic hardrock with a lot of keyboards and with impressing melodic, orchestral and powerful songs with fantastic vocals. A mus...

    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 ...
