1983. Howard's first & best album. "New Song" & "What Is Love" were his first 2 hit singles. Howard was a spiky-haired, 1-man band on keyboards & part of MTV's new wave era.

1985. 2nd album finds HoJo using a band & back-up vocalists. More bouncy new wave pop, with a touch of R&B. "Things Can Only Get Better" & "No One Is To Blame" are 2 of the hits here.

1987. Howard matures a bit, but "You Know I Love You...Don't You" is typical, catchy HoJo stuff. Solid pop album.

1989. Howard's last touch of electronic ingenuity. This had a couple of good songs, but you can almost hear him going soft in the studio.

1992. Howard descends into the miserable depths of bland, adult contemporary pop & manages to squeeze out one last hit, "Lift Me Up." The rest is a bore. Sounds like a Bruce Hornsby album.

1993. First greatest hits collection. Perfect track selection. Includes every single, plus a few album favorites. Dreary cover photo though.

Limited-release 1998 album whose best moments are the 2 or 3 tracks where HoJo rediscovers electronica like "Let The People Have Their Say." The rest isn't bad, but still a bit too Adult Contemporary

Wow! What an excellent surprise!! At 50 years old, HoJo returns w/ a new US record deal & the best work he's done in years. This marks his long-overdue return to electronic pop. Great job, Howard!
