Billy Idol Whiplash Smile Release Date: 1986 Running Time: 45:29 Label: Chrysalis
|
While Whiplash Smile is Idol's most ambitious album, it only comes to life on hard-rocking pseudo-rockabilly like To Be a Lover." Unfortunately, there aren't many songs that are as good as that single on this album. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
