Review

Their debut album went gold in record time and the initial hype from the Beatles' own label (Capitol) was that this was the group destined to be the next big thing--which they were for this one album. "My Sharona" and "Good Girls Don't" were the big hits. But the hype and their overnight success set off a "Nuke the Knack" backlash that saw their subsequent records fail miserably. Get the Knack, however, is great power pop. "Your Number or Your Name," "Lucinda," "Oh Tara" and "That's What the Little Girls Do" are all top notch pieces of songcraft, brought to their fullest potential by the flawless production by Mike "Commander" Chapman. --Rob O'Connor24-bit remastered 2002 reissue of the power pop/new wave act's hit 1979 debut album features 17 tracks including the hits, 'My Sharona' & 'Good Girls Don't', as well as 5 bonus tracks, 'Don't Look Back', 'That's What The Little Girls Do' (previously unreleased songwriting demo/band demo), 'Maybe Tonight' (previously unreleased rehearsal recording), 'I Knew The Bride (When She Used To Rock & Roll)' (previously unreleased rehearsal recording of Nick Lowe cover), 'My Sharona' (previously unreleased songwriting demo). Includes 12-page booklet with liner notes & photos. Capitol.
