Customer Reviews
A classic!
This album contains the LONG kick ass version of Twilight Zone (When The Bullet Hits The Bone), which is, in my opinion, the greatest rock song of all time. While this album is short, this song MAKES the album. The Devil Made Me Do It, which is one of their most well-known songs, is silly, but enjoyable. Baby Dynamite is enjoyable, but very slow and not what one would call a rock song. The same with Future. Last Of The Mohicans is a catchy lightweight rocker. Lost And Found and Chargin' Up My Batteries are both great songs. Secrets is a slow, bluesy song. While the album could be longer, and there ARE better GE albums out there (Bloody Buccaneers!!), this is a classic and a good place to start with this band that's been around for 43 years and still kickin'.
In Which Golden Earring Meets MTV
Golden Earring, the talented Dutch foursome of long duration (they've basically had the same configuration for 40 years now, since 1965) has an amazing body of work. Many of their finest moments occurred throughout the 70s and 80s, and this period culminated with 1982's "Cut."
This well-written, well-played, accessible album made the Earring MTV favorites with the taut video for "Twilight Zone," whose film noirish atmosphere provided an effective context for the driving rhythms and urgent vocals of "Zone."
Hopefully this album will inspire new fans to explore the deep and pleasurable Earring catalog, perhaps starting with 1973's "Moontan" and its smash radio hit "Radar Love," and hopefully continuing into such landmark albums as "Switch" (1974), "To The Hilt" (1975) and "Grab It For A Second" (1978).
"Cut" will certainly remind longtime listeners why they took a shine to the Earring in the first place.
Happy listening!
A CUT ABOVE most albums from 1982
This album was in full swing back when MTV was great.Being a teenager albumsfrom every group were either bad or good.This one, although short on tracks is a delight to the ear.I've been a fan for years and they continue to produce good music.I visit their web site at WWW.GOLDEN EARRING.COM just to see what they're up to.Although TWILIGHT ZONE is in no way shape or form RADAR LOVE it still will be the song from the eighties as RADAR LOVE was for the seventies.
