The 1981 Listening Post - David London - David London

 David London - David London


#642

1981 Housekeeping LISTENING POST DISCOVERY

David London

David London

Genre: Power Pop

4.5 out of 5




Highlights:

Somebody’s Got My Someone

Live nYour Own Life

Suicide Dance

Weakness




Don’t know who this guy is but somewhere down the line he got himself a recording contract. He sounds like Annie Wilson and his songs sound like he was 5 years too late for the glam party. But in their context they work.

If I hadn’t heard 600 records this year this one might actually have cut through. It’s not a bad power rock album. I like glam. 

The Bay City Rollers would have been proud to have put this out. 

David London should have been at least as big as the Hudson Brothers. 





Missed?: At the time? No. In retrospect? Yes.
