Special View (1979) - The Only Ones

« The Only Ones

The Only Ones released two albums before this, including one with "Another Girl, Another Planet," but many people think this is the first record. It probably was a US re-issue. It arrived at WFDD during the big 1979 wave. The band shouldn't have been a one-hit wonder.

The songs are a cut above a lot of the other generic stuff that got pushed out by the record companies then. They followed this up with another great record, Baby's Got a Gun.
