Why didn't this band make it bigger. I LOVE this album. I wore out two cassettes and can't wait to get more copies of their music. wish they had more out. Where are they now?
5.0 out of 5 stars
you'd never guess how new romantic the album is based on the single "Working Girl",

This review is from: Going West (Audio CD)
Way back in 1983 when I first got MTV, this song "Working Girl" by The Members got regular rotation. Good song, pretty mainstream and pop, reminded me of Dexy's Midnight Runners. Here it is, years later, and being on a new wave message board steered me toward their entire 1983 album. And boy was I shocked to find that, other than the hit single, this album sounds like early Spandau Ballet, Haircut 100 and even shades of early Duran Duran at times. Wow. Never expected this band to be a new wave band (they were originally more of the punk variety on their earlier album). In fact, 4 songs on this album are produced by Martin Rushent, the man responsible for the hugely popular Human League electro pop album Dare! This one is definitely a must for your 80s collection, however, do yourself a favor and get the CD titled Uprhythm, Downbeat instead. It has all the songs on this release (although in a different running order) along with 6 bonus tracks, including an alternate remix of Working Girl.
