The 1981 Listening Post - Straight Eight - Straight to the Heart

 Straight Eight - Straight to the Heart



#696

1981 Housekeeping

Straight Eight

Straight to the Heart

Genre: Rock

3.25 out of 5



Highlights:

Only the Truth Hurts


These guys were on Pete Townshend’s label. 


Yeah, you read that right.


But they just sound like…The Cars. Without the charm or charisma. Or the songs, sadly.


There’s one banger here. “Only the Truth Hurts” which suggests what they could have actually been. 


The title track is pretty Ocaseky but the next one, “One More Chance” is so Ocaseky it almost hurts. 


The lead singer would go on to Modern Romance and we will get to them…


On the album "No Noise From Here/Shuffle 'n' Cut/Straight To The Heart" - Tracks 25-34
