Sure not much available on this album. Only one recorded with The Shot. Brinsley Schwartz is still with him here. Don't know the others, but it does say they had played with him previously. This album contains Grahams biggest U.S. single of Wake Up (#39), which is also my favorite, and the album went to #57 here. Graham was never a big success here, except to me. Don't see that the album charted in the U.K. How is he viewed over there? One other excellent track on here for me, with a couple of bombs to average it out to an even like status. Youtube sure let me down on this one. Nothing for my favs with only two available, and they are live clips from recent shows, so not very representative of the album.
I LIKE THIS ALBUM
Worst Track - Take Everything
Best Track - Wake Up (Next To Me)
I can't have no objection to the world outside
I don't have no complaints against life's one way ride
I know I'm sleeping with an angel and this devil's in luck
Oooooooh wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
I've been dreamin for too long
I guess something's always wrong unless I
Wake up, next to you, I wanna
Wake up, next to you you
Oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oooh
Oooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, yeah
The Summer's left a spell on us, magic and gold
The tarmac's cracked and shimmering, up on the road
I know I'm walking with an angel down a hot avenue
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
I've been dreamin for too long
I guess something's always wrong unless I
Wake up, next to you, I'm gonna wake up
Wake up, next to you ooooooo (Sax solo)
You know what I'm gonna do, I'm gonna pick up the telephone
Right now and I'm gonna call information and I'm gonna say to 'em
"Where is she right now? Cause I want you and I need you"
And I wanna hear her say: "Hey baby, Wake up!" (bass riff from
"must be my imagination")
Wake up, next to you, I'm gonna wake up
Wake up, next to you you
Oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oooh
Oooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, yeah
