Reviews & Opinions
DANNY BAKER, SNIFFIN' GLUE #9, April/May 1977: Classy trash and pop at it's best. It's one that's best to start on Side 2 and right from the bass intro to 'Man Overboard' away ya go - Surfin' on the New Wave. It's red hot bubblegum, the best being the first three on Side 2 and 'In The Flesh' and I love the line - "I'll give you some head (and) shoulders to lie on" - in 'Look Good In Blue'! I won't bore you with what Debbie Harry is wearing on the sleeve, NME's already done that but she is beautiful to the point of taking liberties. Again, music for the legs not for the head.Additional Notes
