Produktbeschreibungen

Aus der Amazon.de-Redaktion
Man sagt, jede Band habe für ihr erstes Album eine ganze Karriere Zeit, und so schienen auch die Schwestern Ann und Nancy Wilson den Erfolg von Dreamboat Annie, wohl eine der stärksten Debüt-LPs der Rockgeschichte, nie mehr übertreffen zu können.
Tatsächlich hatte die Plattenindustrie Heart bereits abgeschrieben, als sie ihr Label wechselten und ein neues Album, das sie nach ihrer Band benannten, herausbrachten. Überraschenderweise wurde die Platte aus dem Jahr 1985 einer der größten Erfolge ihrer Karriere, mit 5 ausgekoppelten Hits. Dies war natürlich auch die Zeit, in der sich die Band auf angeheuerte Klangtüftler und synthesizerlastige, bombastische Mainstream-Balladen einlassen mußte.

Produzent Ron Nevision versuchte sogar zeitweise, Ann in Richtung Madonna zu trimmen. Das Ergebnis war nicht unbedingt ein anderer Stil, aber -- offen gestanden -- eine ganz andere Band. --Bill Holdship

Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Heart was pretty much considered washed up when they released Heart in 1985. They learned a few important things while they had taken a short sabbatical — they knew that hooks were important and they knew they could play up their looks for MTV. So, they delivered both with Heart, giving their audience anthemic hooks and tightly corseted bosoms, leading to the most popular album they ever had. This doesn't mean it's the best, since its calculated mainstream bent may disarm some long-term fans, but it is true that they do this better than many of their peers, not just because they have good polished material from professional songwriters but because they can deliver this material professionally themselves. Yes, "These Dreams," "Never," and "What About Love" don't quite fit into the classic Heart mode, but they are good mid-'80s mainstream material, delivered as flawlessly as possible. There's still a lot of filler on this record, but the best moments are among the best mainstream AOR of its era.
