Music reviews of Beat/the Kids Are the Same
Music Review: Get this great 2 on 1.
Rating: 5 Stars
Paul Collins from NYC, went to San Francisco by the way of Los Angeles, California and formed The Nerves, with Peter Case and Jack Lee, they released a 4 song ep in 1976. After they broke up, Paul formed The Breakaways with Peter Case, they signed a record contract, but they never saw it released until last year The Breakaway sessions. Paul formed The Beat in 1979, the was made busy with other power-pop groups "The Knack" being the biggest of the bands, others were 20/20, The Plimsouls with Peter Case and Earthquake etc. At 25 Paul and the Beat came out with "The Beat", just some great pop-rock and good power-pop also. The power-poppers on this record were, "Rock 'N Roll Girl", Don't Wait For Me", Let Me Into Your Life", "Walking Out On Love", "Work-A-Day-World","Look But Don't Touch", "I Don't Fit In" and "You Won't Be Happy", should of hit the 100! The ramones influenced "U.S.A.", and a pretty ballad in "You And I". The bonus track is a real stunner "There She Goes".
The second album, "The Kids Are The Same", came out 2 1/2 years later, it was too late for The Beat, but again they put out more great music. This album had production than their 1st album. "That's What Life Is All About", is a Buddy Holly type song, catchy as hell, a top 40 hit on any other planet!
"Dreaming", another stunner, power-pop at it's best!
"On The Highway", A MTV video back in '82, a true rock masterpiece, crank this puppy up on the highway!
The 60ish "Crying Won't Help", "It's Just A Matter Of Time", a jaunty pop-rocker, some good bass by Steve Huff, the bouncy title track, the guitar on "Trapped", is first rate, the reflective "Met Her Yesterday", and the bonus track "Down", is just fantastic, Pauls vocals are something else.
Both albums failed to crack the 200, but this is just tremendous good time Rock "N Roll! Paul Collins is still performing today.
