5.0 out of 5 stars A lost pop gem
"Movie Star" may be the most recognizable song, but this album has a lot of other wonderful songs. "Motorcycle Mama" is every bit the equal of "Movie Star" and songs like "Rock'N'Roll Clown," "In The Zum Zum Zummernight" and "I Wrote A Love Song" are also excellent. And "San Franciscan Nights" is a brilliant song, though a cover (originally written by the Animals)...

3.0 out of 5 stars A Word of Caution
This item contains a substantially different group of tracks from Harpo's 1976 release, "Moviestar." Compare before purchasing.

Sure, he's not a hip, innovative artist. He's "merely" an artist who penned a number of great mainstream pop songs. There's nothing wrong with writing straight-forward, catchy pop songs. They're fun to listen to. Consider him the Swedish Bay City Rollers.

1.0 out of 5 stars Movie Star is the only track I know., February 19, 1999

Not much to say other than the one hit wonder sadly means the chaff comes with it. Is this song worth the cost of the full CD? On the right night after a few beers with the right company --- probably yes.
