Format:Audio CD
after nearly 30 years this cd gets a cd release..thanks you cherry pop!
the album cover is beautiful...i bought it on vinyl hoping it would be as beautiful as the cover!
after leaving guys n dolls..thereze and david had huge success in the singles chart with classics like "shooting star" "loves got a hold on me" and "who were you with in the moonlight"
signing a new deal with wea....this album and all 3 singles flopped big time...not down to promotion but down to the quality of the songs...
track by track
"radio" could have been a huge hit if it was released as a single! it has the true dollar feel and vocals are great! 9/10
"the girls are out to get ya" is a bit to rockabilly and was released as a single but failed to make the charts...its so unlike a dollar song who ever decided to release it was very much mistaken 5/10
"young love" is a nice enough pop track but it seems to hrk back to the 70's 7/10
"you take my breath away" has a merry-go- round-backing track which gets really annoying! the song was another single and i wonder if some one was out to destroy them...its pretty bad with it reggae backing 5/10
"love at first sight" is another song that sounds so dated and weak 5/10
"taking a chance on you" is a true pop classic, it was released as a single but failed to chart...it has the classic dollar sound but dollar were off the radar! 9/10
"ebony" has a a sweet sickly feel and is very weak 5/10
"no mans land" has a sixties rockabilly feel..it just isn't dollar 5/10
"don't change your mind" is more the dollar sound we know and love....a great pop track with great lyrics and great vocals....should have been a single 9/10
"love me slowly" is a great ballad with lovely lyrics and it shines 9/10
"girls are out to get you alternative version" is no better than the album version 6/10
"love dont come easy" sounds like some thing from "grease" its a great track and previously unreleased 8/10
"young americans talking" was davids first solo single so would have been more appropriate as a bonus on "the dollar album" however it is a stunning pop track that should have been a hit but stalled outside the top 40 9/10
"fight for this country" is another great david solo track....great to have it on cd 9/10
"ringing the bell" was a david track released under another name..it failed to chart but it's a great track 8/10
"young americans talking 12" - a great track given a true classic 80's style remix 9/10
although a bit dissapointing at times..it sounded dated at time and 30 years have done it no better!...
a blip as the next album was stunning!!!
the rare tracks make this cd a must for dollar fans!!!

Format:Audio CD
At last Dollar's albums see the light of day on CD. This, their second album from 1980 is a good effort. None of the songs are classic, but each are entertaining enough. I would recommend this set to fans of pop music with the best tracks being "The Girls Are Out to Get Ya" (memories of Summer 1980 come flooding back!) and "Young Love". The real bonus here however is David's solo single "Young American Talking" - easily the best song of this compilation. A true 80s classic. Unfortunately the pointlessly long 12" version is also here, which doesn't stand up to even a second listen! Never mind, this album is worth getting.
