It may come as a shock that "So It Goes," the best new Thin Lizzy song since "The Boys Are Back in Town," the Bowie/Eno marvel, "I Love the Sound of Breaking Glass," and "I Hear They Castrated Castro," which sounds like Jonathan Richman working with The Jackson Five before it slips into a vamp of Paul Simon's "Was A Sunny Day," are all the work of one Nick Lowe.

The former main-stay of Brinsley Schwarz and subsequent producer for Graham Parker, Elvis Costello, and The Damned, tries on a hilarious range of pop styles on his debut lp and almost overcomes the identity crises with his daring and sardonic wit. A must for pop ironists. | ||
