The dB's Like This Release Date: 1984 Running Time: 46:33 Label: Rhino From the opening notes of "Love Is for Lovers," this is obviously no ordinary dB's record. The group, now pared down to a trio fronted by Peter Holsapple, have stripped away the arty quirks of the first two albums, opting instead for straight-ahead, rootsy rockers and country-rock romps. Amid the more muscular, guitar-based sound, Holsapple turns in his same instantly endearing melodies, especially on the album highlight, "Lonely Is as Lonely Does," their most beautiful song to date. [CD reissues on both Rhino and Collectors' Choice add two tracks: "Darby Hall" and an extended remix of "A Spy in the House of Love."] Chris Woodstra, All Music Guide Tracks: Title Composer Time 1 Love Is for Lovers Holsapple 3:18 2 She Got Soul Holsapple 2:40 3 Spitting in the Wind Holsapple 3:24 4 Lonely Is (As Lonely Does) Holsapple 3:57 5 Not Cool Holsapple 2:52 6 Amplifier Holsapple 3:03 7 Spy in the House of Love Holsapple 4:51 8 Rendezvous Holsapple 3:07 9 New Gun in Town Holsapple 3:47 10 On the Battlefront Holsapple 3:34 11 White Train Holsapple 3:20 12 Darby Hall [*] Holsapple 3:00 13 Spy in the House of Love [Extended Remix][*] Holsapple 5:40 Releases: Year Type Label CD Rhino 2006 CD Collectors' Choice Music
