An unlikely member of the Stiff Records stable, Rachel Sweet was a brassy, big-voiced teenager from Akron, Ohio who nevertheless won over the very British, very punky label with her chutzpah and good taste in songs. This 1977 debut album--reissued and remastered in 2007--made a splash on both sides of the Atlantic, with a variety of pop styles suited to Sweet's emotive voice: there's countrified pop (Elvis Costello's "Stranger in the House"), updated Motown ("B-A-B-Y"), and big-beat new wave ("Who Does Lisa Like?"). Perhaps this reissue will persuade Sweet to come out of musical retirement and serve up some more great music from an adult perspective.
