Some great songs on here like "Working My Way Back to You" by the Spinners, "Lost in Love" by Air Supply, "Steal Away" by Robbie Dupree and "Sexy Eyes" by Dr. Hook. It deserves more than just two stars.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not A Great Start To The 80's, August 10, 2001

This review is from: Rock On: Top 40 Chartbusters 1980 (Audio CD)

Rock On's 1980 collection is one of the weaker albums in the series. Blondie's "Call Me" was their biggest hit, but hardly their best song. Ambrosia's "Biggest Part Of Me" is a very good soft rocker. The Doobie Brothers' "Real Love" has an extremely catchy keyboard hook and a strong Michael McDonald vocal. The always appealing Little River Band provide the breezy "Cool Change". Much of the rest of the album is made up of clunkers like Robbie Dupree's "Steal Away" on which for some unknown reason he imitates Kenny Loggins, the banal "Lost In Love" from Air Supply, Rupert Holmes' "Him" is complete garbage and even the normally great Spinners slip on the poor cover of "Working My Way Back To You".
