Album Notes & Community Reviews
Demonstrating the rapid evolution of the British pop idol, this sophomore effort splits its focus between energetic, driving rock and roll numbers and lushly orchestrated romantic ballads. Backed by the highly influential Shadows on the upbeat tracks, his vocal delivery is significantly smoother and more controlled than his raucous debut. The highly calculated, dual-pronged approach effectively secured his long-term viability as an international mainstream entertainer.
