INXS "listen like thieves" vinyl 1985
my sister gave me her small vinyl collection a couple of years ago
she has a lot of forgettable music in it, Skatt Bros, Leif Garrett, Bucks Fizz, Kids From Fame, you get the picture...
anyway,
she had this album also,
i own "the swing" and "kick" and do not really like them
always thought of them as a good singles' band and a good live act (when Hutchence was sober) but not much else
so i thought i would give this a spin since MH played it a few days ago in his "my album collection" and gave it an "A" rating.
plus the fact there is a lot of hype surrounding the 40th anniversary release with Giles Martin's new mix of it out later this year.
four big hits on this one, all of which i love, six more tracks not far behind those four in quality and a dumbass instrumental..
a solid album that hits a peak immediately and does not really let up
a surprisingly good album from a band i am not fond of, album rates 2.3 from me or a "B" on MH's latest rating scale
I LIKE THIS ALBUM
