Robert Palmer
Clues
Original Release Date: 1980
Label: Polygram Records
Tracklist:
1. Looking For Clues

5. I Dream Of Wires
6. Woke Up Laughing
7. Not A Second Time
8. Found You Now
Recorded in the Bahamas for Island Records, Clues has a dual personality: part straight rock and part New Wave, which by 1980 was beginning to break through the pop charts. Palmer kept the band he used in Secrets, dividing guitar work with Kenny Mazur and playing alongside two underappreciated side men, Jack Waldman on keyboards and Dony Wynn on drums, all of whom make their mark. But the largest presence on the album was Gary Numan's.
"Johnny and Mary," a hit in the U.K.
Despite the incongruity between Palmer's Caribbean world and Numan's metal one, their combination yields surprising and impressive results. Palmer's persistent cheerfulness removes some of the monotonous melancholy from Numan's "I Dream of Wires," a song in which "the last electrician alive" laments "new ways" - in Palmer's hands, it was nearly a club hit. Funk proves a common interest in "Found You Now." If you listen to Numan's "Films," you'll understand why the hip-hop world has been stealing ("sampling") his riffs.
Отличный и редкий альбом, для 80 года это был настоящий прорыв.
