So I just purchased the 40th Anniversary edition of The Go-Go's Beauty And The Beat. I'm no expert, but it's gotta be top ten all-time new wave albums, no? At least of the pop crossover variety. It's excellent. Not many jagged edges but a lot of creative songwriting and instrumentation. And very much sing-a-longable. You can hear the punk/pop influences all over the place.
More power-pop bands would do a good job listening to this and figuring out how get more power and punch into their pop. I can remember listening to this at about eight or nine years old and loving it. It still holds up. That's remarkable how it does that across all ages, sexes, everything.
One of the finest albums I can recall hearing at a young age.
