Title: Still a classic album of pop and soul from 1988!
Review: Most people know Don Was for his producing Bonnie Raitt's comeback album of '89, the B-52's '89 hit album and others. But few know that he was with the band Was Not Was. This album I still remember from 1988. It didn't sell as well, but it is a wonderful 64 minute album of some pop and soul songs just very well performed and done. I love Spy In the House of Love and its live mystery feel. The Boom Boom Shaka laka laka boom chorus of Walk the Dinosaur is still superb. But another favorite is Wedding Vows in Vegas and its humor. The album has some funny titles, but the songs cover a wide range of American music in its span. This was the setting point for Don Was' musical dominance in the early '90s!
