Product Description

From Amazon.com

There was a time in the early '80s when cutting-edge English bands, many of them high on the multicultural pop innovations of Kid Creole & the Coconuts, began getting down with horn sections and tropically tinged rhythms. It was all very short-lived, but, for a moment at least, bands like Haircut 100 seemed like they might win out over the more pandering likes of Duran Duran. Led by gifted singer-songwriter Nick Heyward, Haircut 100 sweated up their cardigans on this, their first album of pop pleasantries and extremely blue-eyed soul. The horns are cracking, and such tracks as "Fantastic Day," "Baked Bean," "Favorite Shirts (Boy Meets Girl)," and the stretched-out "Nobody's Fool" are all great fun. File under guilty pleasures from a more innocent time. --Bill Forman

4.0 out of 5 stars How have you been up to lately?, 2001/9/8
By A Customer
Nick Heywardの曲を聴いたことがありますか?たぶん 30歳以上のひとなら、何度か、「Boy Meets Girl」 や 「Favourite Shirts」なんか聞いたことがあるでしょう。 80年代には”モンキーズ”の再来とか?、いろいろ、言われた彼らですが、中身はとても聞きやすいポップスです。ニックはボーカルで作詞作曲、すべてをやってたひとです。このアルバムは今でも、あまり古さを感じない作品です。彼らには苦い青春の思い出なのかもしれませんが。

短い活動のあと、解散して、ソロになったニック。残りのひとたちもしばらく、同じグループ名でやってたようですか。。。。。

5.0 out of 5 stars ♪love plus one~, 2002/4/2
1980年代初頭、彗星の如くデビューして、ヒット曲を連発した彼らの1st。当時流行っていた「funklatina」(ファンクとラテンをミックスした音楽)の代表格だったと思います。でも、このグループのこのアルバムは大ヒットした、「love plus one」に尽きるんじゃないかと思います。ポップで実に親しみやすい曲で、今聴いても全然古さを感じさせません。ソロになったニックヘイワードにもいい曲が多いので、このアルバムとともに、機会があったら是非聞いてもらいたいです。
