Elegantly Wasted

Made me want to get my skateboard out ..kirks Sax is Amazing 👏. . Miss ode Miki Hutchinson. 😪

Here's the problem I have with INXS, and it is 100% my problem and one that i feel bad that they have to carry, is that INXS - like Prince and the Revolution, was my absolute joy in the 80s - and early 90s.I am talking The Swing, Listen Like Thieves, Kicks - the songs on the Lost Boys Soundtrack, X - INXS (...and Prince) was the reson i often got detentions in school for being late to class after lunch as myself and a few others would sly on down to Sean Liddle's house and pretend to be the Farrris brothers, with added air guitar and drums. Late 80s i would save my paper round money and go to London looking for 12" imports - Ok, do you have it i liked these guys, a lot !Music tastes change and (just like Prince - again) I found their output (from after X) a bit average at best. I bought this album and put it in the 'stocking fillers' list - it wont be the goto album when Listen like Thieves and X is available, however I recently fell upon the Hutchence documentary Mystify and my love affair was rekindled. I felt i owed my former mates a 2nd chance and i revisited this album, and the truth is its a very good album, bit of rock, bit of soul, bit of gospel. I was impressed at the depth of sounds.... now is it a good INXS album, sadly i cant really go with that.As I say i feel for them as they cant possibly match the level of excitement and nostalgia a new vinyl brought to bunk off school with, nor the dizzy joy of seeing them at Wembley in 1990 , a great band - good music, not great music.

Fantastic overall album with gems like everything, searching and I’m just a man. Long live INXS

Long overdue vinyl reissue, waited ages for an LP copy, this being my 2nd LP, the 1st one had tiny fine squiggly scratches really annoying on a new record which obviously leads to crackle (no fault of the seller btw). InShame this became their final album.

Good album.

An absolutely fantastic album that just keeps on growing on you , so sad Micheal isn’t here to make any more amazing music with inxs :0(

Came earlier than expected. Excellent condition

Never actually heard this album prior too, but just had had to get it on Vinyl
