Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1984, Pop/Rock, Sophisti-Pop, London
Matrix #: SP5000
Condition: VG+, sounds great (TC)
Cultural Facts:
-
Personal Struggle Jackson was already trying to shake the bitter “angry young man” tag that stuck to his early career, and this record was part of that break.
-
Studio Lore Cut at Masonic Hall in New York with players spaced through the room to catch natural echo, giving it a real acoustic depth instead of flat 80s studio gloss.
-
Album Art The cover nods to classic Blue Note jazz design, a clean signal that Jackson was pushing past new wave and into a more arranged, jazz-minded lane.
