Judie Tzuke's early albums feel very pop rock to me. Emphasis on pop.



It did feel a bit like some sort of Frankenstein's monster, sewn together from various familiar acts and songs. I'm not sure if I think that's a sin, but it was a bit hard to feel like the album had all that much personality.

Just in the very sort of clean, measured delivery, the album even reminded me of Steely Dan. Not sure if anyone else can see what I mean.

Welcome to the Cruise
and Sportscar are 1979 and 1980 respectively. I guess Ant is talking more Ritmo/I am the Phoenix/Shoot the Moonterritory.
