The 1986 Listening Post - Howard Jones - One to One

Howard Jones - One to One




#449/2098
October 25 1986
Howard Jones
One to One
Genre: SynthPop
2.75 out of 5




The first thing I noticed when I listened to this record was that it was a 2020 remaster. Which implies, to me, that there are people in the world who were clamoring for this album to be reissued so they could listen to it with better fidelity than was featured on their previous versions. 
This boggles my mind inasmuch as the first two Jones records were, by all accounts, terrific, but this one is super dull. Unmemorable. Forgettable. 
It feels like a bunch of ideas without songs to wrap around them.
