The 1981 Listening Post - On a Clear Day

 The Tapes - On a Clear Day



#684

1981 Housekeeping

The Tapes

On a Clear Day

Genre: Umm..New Wave?

2 out of 5



Highlights:

Hot Line



I can’t even begin to describe this without invoking David Bowie. Cuz it sounds like he’s on a variable speed turntable covering Sparks doing disco. 

This wants so badly to come across as important but I just want to fire up “You Spin Me Round” and get up and dance and wash this out of my ears. 

It’s not awful, it’s just boring. 

And I don’t know why I referenced Dead or Alive but that’s what this brought to mind. 


Also, this is, at times, atrociously boring.
