The Hollies - What Goes Around... 1983 LP

Postby DevoManiac101 » Sun Mar 18, 2007 8:20 am

What are your thoughts on this LP? I believe The Hollies were on the right track with this album, sadly it was left out in the cold and many fans neglected it's 80's pop driven melodic vibe. Let's begin with their cover of "Stop In The Name Of Love" this was the only song that gained attention off the LP and probably the fact because it was a cover song. It reached 29 on the top 100 charts and the music video was in medium rotation on MTV but other than that one single the LP didn't gain the attention I think it deserved. They also recorded "Just One Look" another popular tune from the 60's which was very good as well but my personal favorite off the LP is "Casualty" it's an amazing song and very out of the woodwork for the guys, though you would only expect that from a great producer like Mike Batt which also played keys on the album.
