Eddie Money
Even more than most albums, this one by the man responsible for last year's hit single Two Tickets to Paradise doesn't seem so much an artistic endeavor as a merchandisable product. On the cover, suavely holding his half-smoked cigarette, Money looks like some adman's vision of a casually elegant, macho rocker. Inside, he wails unconvincingly through such track-worn themes as youthful hedonism, "everybody rocking and rolling the place," and shooting a bad guy on the Mexican border. Most of it's backed by heavy rhythm guitar, all the easier to be heard over AM car radios. That's where the Money is.
