3.0 out of 5 stars Brandy's Fine, but there's more, May 28, 1999

By A Customer

Wanted to name my daughter Brandy (After the song of course) but "Karlee" won out on a toin toss with my wife.

Always was interested in this "Looking Glass" band. One hit wonder? not really after hearing the the ten tracks on this CD.

After one listen, you'll probably like 60-70% of it (if, you of course like the Brandy hit). Many of the other songs of similar style.

Similar to? Sounds somewhat like Stonebolt, and some tracks sound somewhat like blood sweat & tears. Lite pop music. Apparently their live show was much heavier.

Weakness: This band (like many bands) seems to be split by two personalities within it. Which makes the direction not too focussed. Are they lite pop, R&B, or a little heavier??

Elliot Lurie made all this happen. (The obvious talent). By the way, Brandy was apparently written about a girl whos name was 'Randy.' Brandy definitely sounds more radio friendly.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Whole Album is Great!, February 9, 2004

By	Rick Mathews "Iconware" (Las Vegas, NV) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

While I agree that Brandy and Jimmy Loves Mary-Anne are great songs, I like the rest of the album as well. It brings back a fresher, lighter time when the world seemed like a friendly and happy place!

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun Sunshine Music, October 19, 2004

By	Mark Swank (Hollywood CA) - See all my reviews

Another reviewer said it best, it's the kind
of music when the world was a little more
innocent, and not as jaded. "Brandy" is a
guilty pleasure, its a great summer songs that
evokes the early 1970's, the beach, and love.
Jimmy Loves Maryanne is great as well. As others
have noted this was essentialy a harder rocking
boogie band, than is evident on their big hits.
But what a time it was, I would also suggest from
the same time "Dancing in The Moonlight"-King Harvest,
"Go All The Way" Raspberries, & "Long Cool Woman" -Hollies.
