This is probably pretty obscure stuff, but well worth it if you can find it. It is basically a small jazz/'light rock' combo with female singer. But don't be fooled if this sounds drab and dull to you. It certainly would to me. But, there's a certain casual bounce (or is it spunk) to this album that gives it life. And to boot, this girl's got a beautiful voice sorta like an good jazz or night club singer and very effective. At the store in my home town (Cols. OH) that I frequent, School Kids Records, 'the Girl' has a bin in the new records section that was originally labelled 'School Kids recommends' but was changed via a slash thru 'recommends' to 'School Kids insists.' If this was your regular joe typical record store, I wouldn't have been swayed. But, since I know the guy who runs the shop (he's as much music lover as shop owner), and I remember when _Gaucho_ came out and School Kids recommended you not buy the album but tape it, because it came out at list $9.98 (a dollar more than other new releases at the time), I decided to go for it. Good stuff! -- "I'm gonna hurl myself against the wall, 'cause I'd rather feel bad than not feel anything at all!"
