专辑介绍

by Donald A. Guarisco

After successfully toying with a more AOR-oriented sound on If You Knew Suzi, Suzi Quatro made a strong return to her hard-rocking roots on 1979's Suzi...And Other Four Letter Words. Although not a full-on hard rock album, this album sports plenty of driving, guitar-oriented tunes. Good examples include the lead-off track &I've Never Been in Love,& which effectively juxtaposes rollicking, piano-driven verses in a Jerry Lee Lewis vein with a chorus full of power chords, and the dazzling &She's in Love with You,& a set of instructions on how to court a nice girl set to a double-time backbeat and fueled by insistent guitar riffs. Bracing rockers like these are judiciously balanced with a string of tuneful, keyboard-based mid-tempo tunes: &Hollywood& effectively uses a sweet melody and a light vocal from Quatro to put across a gritty tale of how the titular city eats up young innocents, and &Four Letter Words& is an amusing put-down of a lying lover set to a pop-inflected reggae groove. The downside of Suzi...And Other Four Letter Words is that its emphasis on a consistent rock feel leads to a very similar sound from song to song (many of the songs recycle the same double-time backbeat), and some of the songs rely a little too heavily on the band's delivery to support them (the melody of &You Are My Lover,& which is minimalist to the point of being repetitive). Despite these minor problems, Suzi...And Other Four Letter Words remains a solid slab of rock that is guaranteed to please the Suzi Quatro fanbase.
