Album Notes & Community Reviews

An early foray into synthesizer-driven pop, 'Son of My Father' blends the infectious hooks of bubblegum with the burgeoning textures of glam rock. The prominent use of the Moog synthesizer lends a quirky, futuristic sheen to otherwise conventional pop-rock structures. The title track became a massive hit, laying the crucial groundwork for Moroder's later pioneering work in electronic dance music.
