More disco than westcoast-sound, but contains the original of "How do I survive" as far as I know. This is definitely the best version of all. The rest on this album is highly agreeable. A nice to have.
A British pop / westcoast classic. The band is built around Paul Bliss, who is the band’s singer and main composer. Musical references include City Boy, Nielsen Pearson, David Roberts and Pages. There should be little doubt for any fan of this style of music. Just listen to “Something About You” and you’re back there in the 70’s, reliving those musical moments. Thank the Japanese for making all these gems from the past available again.
