They're not really succeeding in relating a sultry and er*tic memory very successfully.

It is over.
It was OK but nothing special.
Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it.

Well, that was all inoffensive (other than his voice), yet rather unremarkable and unmemorable too. Fine for one listen.
3/5

A (probably) generous ★★★☆☆ from me.
It wasn't ever an overtly awful album and, on a couple of occasions, threatened to be actually quite good, but it was ultimately a load of songs that owed way too much to The Police of about 2 years beforehand propped up by the aforementioned surprisingly good songs and a couple of good rock-pop songs (that have obviously dated badly).
I think the problem is that the whole album has dated badly.
Even more than that dreadful 'surf-pop' rubbish we did the other day in fact.
The production was markedly good however.
