This is without a doubt America's most controversial album. Released in 1984, it features the splashy, heavily-produced, electronic pop sound then in vogue. For a group which made its name in the seventies with acoustic-flavored hits, this was definitely a bold attempt to try a new sound. And yet it works. If any artist could make the sounds of the eighties come together in a seamless, sophisticated manner, it was America. The woefully underrated Can't Fall Asleep To A Lullaby ranks as one of their finest recordings. Other tracks like 5th Avenue, We Got All Night, Special Girl, and the reggae-inspired Lady With A Bluebird all merit attention. If you want to hear one of the better soft-pop albums of mid-1980s, this is it.
