Man
of Many Faces
New
Musical Express:
This is Christie's follow-up to their
two previous hits, Yellow River
and San Bernadino, and
shows a marked development from the early country
influence through to the much harder rock sound of
their latest release.
It's again written by group leader Jeff
Christie and features strident, punchy guitars which
strengthen the easily remembered melody and lyric.
There's nothing pretentious about it. It's just competent
pop and a record that can make you feel good to listen
to.
Music Business Weekly:
Something of a change for the heavier
on Christie's third single, but sacrificing none of
the instantaneous appeal of Yellow
River and San Bernadino.
Some excellent guitar work, and a pounding, repetitive
chorus. Sure to move.
Sounds:
Another surprise this week — though
a nice one — is this track from the once over-jolly
band who now turn up sounding very nicely in check
on a good, slightly dark little song by Jeff Christie.
It's rather attractive with a nicely chopped-up rhythym.
Melody Maker:
Another Jeff Christie song which should
make a good follow-up to Yellow
River and San Bernadino.
Particularly interesting is the bass guitar which
reminds me of the work of Chris Squire.
