Comment:

In the chilly chapter of pop history that was the drum-machine-driven '80s, when pathos was at a premium, the Bongos burned up the college-rock crowd with real rock 'n' roll drama worthy of Roy Orbison, and quirky new wave touches that owed nothing to the past. Forget the new romantics — they were the [i]true[/i] romantics, and Richard Barone maintained that heart-first approach when he struck out on his own. Whether showing his '60s roots on a pared-down-to-perfection cover of the Velvet Underground's reflective ballad "I'll Be Your Mirror," or setting his guitar on glide and channeling those roots into shimmering, new pop visions on "River to River," Barone's never been less than bewitching, and this hook-filled harvest of his guitar-pop charms, both with and without the Bongos, will enchant anyone who's ever believed in magic.
