Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars David's second and fourth studio albums.......2004-02-29

David Essex's second and fourth studio albums are reissued by Demon in this handsome two-disc set. The set comes with a 12-page booklet that reproduces the original artwork from both albums, including the extensive illustrations that accompanied "Out on the Street," which was originally issued in a gatefold sleeve. The company also deserves a hand for the oustanding sound quality.

Musically, the two discs offer quite a contrast in styles. "David Essex" (1974) is a solid, smart collection of pop/rock, showcasing Essex's versatility. The British No. 1 "Gonna Make You a Star" is a delightful spoof on Essex's fame; it's a puzzle why the song never caught on in the states, with its hummable chorus and neat synthesizer riff. Other high spots include "Stardust," the glammy theme to Essex's film of the same name; the spooky "Window;" and the ragtime feel of "Miss Sweetness." The only song that captures the "Rock On" feel is "America," but it's one of the lesser tunes on an otherwise outstanding disc.
