People, like myself, born in the middle of the 1970's, were at the right age (almost) to enjoy this album on it's first release. I owned it on Vinyl, but the album was lost in a house move nearly seven years ago. I loved the Thompson Twins when they were performing. I was a member of their fan club, and even got a personal reply from the percussionist Alannah when I wrote to them. This album for me is Thompson Twins at it's best. All the tracks are superbly written, and the riffs are pure genius. For those who don't know Thompson Twins, they were around when Howard Jones was belting out tracks like New Song.
To sum up: If you loved synth-based 80's music, get this album!
