Listened to this tonight for the first time since about 1982. Really good. So many better songs than My Sharona on this disc.

Serendipitously, the other night I was at a bar watching football with a coworker, the guy who remembers EVERYTHING, like photographically. Somewhere (an ad on tv or in the bar, I don't remember) the question is posed "What was the number one song of 1979?" I immediately respond My Sharona. Ding Ding. He bows to my giant brain!

Yes there is. Let Me Out the first track is a solid song. Maybe Tonight is a solid song. Selfish is another good song as is Oh Tara. Miss a little miss a lot.

My Sharona is pop genius w/a kicking little guitar solo.

Those songs are merely nice.

Whole album is pop genius. Doug Fieger was ahead of his time by a few years or just missed it on the other end. This album is top notch if this was your style and grew up in this era. Many here are too young. Slade is another group many are too young to remember but think Come On Feel the Noise was really a Quiet Riot song.
