In general not a bad album, with the best tracks coming from the Ramones (IMHO their best track in an otherwise overhyped career), Suzie Quatro, The Pretenders and Joe Jackson, and the worst being the obligatory actors tracks by Robin Johnson especially the one with Robin Gibb. That particular track is about as relevant as a Frank Sinatra track appearing on the soundtrack to A Hard Day's Night would have been. Obvious self promotion by Stigwood in play there. Toss those out and you have a fairly good slice of the commercial side of 'new-wave'.5 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
