AUDIOPHILE: DIGITAL

摘要

Relegated to cult status after a few hits in the post-punk era, Lowe consistently delivered witty, thoughtful, musical albums, many being reissued by Yep Roc. This gem, his third solo, dates from 1982 and included a dozen originals and co-compositions, including one with then-wife, Carlene Carter, and one with The Fabulous Thunderbirds' Kim Wilson. Although chart action was limited, this sounds like it's full of hits because tunes like 'Heart' are so catchy. Nick The Knife also benefited from the inclusion of two fellow ex-members of Rockpile, which split the year before. Lowe deserves reassessment, so maybe these reissues will inspire it.
