I think so, my friend who went was raving about it when he came back /

These are the two Madge sounding Stephen Bray productions.

The title track is not an overall highlight but it is really good and its slightly calmer vibe is appreciated. Good tight melodies. AND THE SAX! YES QUEEN!

Probably Things Can Only Get Better should've been the closing track. On balance, a brilliant record which set the guiding direction for the rest of her career, even if she didn't explicitly follow it up for a decade.

9/10 and one of the best singles runs of all time.

I love the cover of Let's Get To It.

Yeah I like the JUXTAPOSITION of the baby blue 'KYLiE' lettering with the gritty B&W gang bang type vibes..
