4.0 out of 5 stars
Martha Davis,
By
This review is from: Policy (Audio CD)
Totally neglected by the media, this is by far some of the finest recordings by Martha Davis. This was intended to be the next Motels album, when the band dismembered. This is a fine collection of songs, of which the majority of the world was deprived. Anyone with the slightest interest in The Motels, would absolutely love this album.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Better than shock!,
By Tim Brough "author and music buff" (Springfield, PA United States) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (VINE VOICE)
This review is from: Policy (Audio CD)
Martha Davis was allegedly working on a musical as she was composing these songs for The Motels to record. Unfortunately, neither happened. The musical was never produced and the band broke up. But these songs remain and should have firerocketed Martha into solo stardom. Who knows why, but the CD disappeared with minimal notice.
That is too bad because "Policy" is a darn good album, to my ears, better than The Motels' "Shock." I even set up a contest for this at the time I was working at radio, and still have a cassette with Martha plugging the station and the contest. There were two surefire hits on "Policy" as well. "Tell It To The Moon" and "Don't Tell Me The Time" were both great pieces of pop that got a little radio play. ("Tell It To The Moon" was also one of those hook-laden insta-hits written by pop maestro Diane Warren and will likely be a hit for someone in the future.) The darkness that permeated The Motels' songs also comes into play here. Both "Rebecca" and "What Money Might Buy" give their femme fatales some really meaty lyrics to shape up to. Sadly, this was Martha's only record. I am glad I have my autographed copy...and Martha, come back!

Listing is missing track 11,
By Thomas R. Vincent "DanceKnight" (Newport, DE) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Policy (Audio CD)
Track 11, Bridge of Sighs, is also on this CD. I haven't seen it listed on the few websites I've looked at, but it sure is there!
