The 1980 Listening Post - Link - All For You

 Link - All for You


1980 Housekeeping

Link

All for You

Genre: Styxian Rock

3.25 out of 5


Requisite 80s cover:

“Space Oddity”. Pretty faithful if a bit too over the top theatrical. Like they wanted to make the Ziggy Stardust Jukebox Musical and this was their calling card. And lemme be the first to say…I would have paid to see this show. They must have crushed this live. 




I know that’s the cop out but tell me these guys don’t sound like they wanna be DeYoung and the gang. 

But the kick is they also wanna be The Knack. The Knyx!

“Low Blow” is sort of catchy and “Music in My Head” has that late 70s grogginess to it’s pop that could actually work…if they were better at it. 


Not terrible. Missing one track:
