Get The Knack
1979 Original with inner sleeve. 5 Stars In All Music Guide. Who doesn't need a clean copy of this 80's icon power pop band? This debut album features a blend of power pop and new wave styles, characterized by catchy melodies and straightforward rock instrumentation. It was produced by Mike Chapman, known for his work with Blondie and Sweet, and it quickly gained commercial success. The album's lead single, "My Sharona," became a defining hit, reaching number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and staying there for six weeks.

The success of "Get The Knack" was meteoric, with the album itself reaching number one on the Billboard 200 chart. It was praised for its infectious energy and raw, youthful exuberance, reminiscent of the British Invasion sound. Other notable tracks include "Good Girls Don't" and "Frustrated," which showcase the band's knack for crafting hook-laden rock songs. Despite its initial popularity, the album also faced criticism for its perceived misogynistic lyrics and the band's calculated image. Nonetheless, "Get The Knack" remains a significant entry in the late-70s rock landscape, capturing the spirit of its era.
