Black - Hey Presto (Eternal)

Now this is much more like it. Lots of genuine attack on a good song with a bit of depth but one which loses its way and lacks the killer chorus which brings a hit. Extra points for a good bit of dramatic piano. (Ian Cranna, Smash Hits, May 24, 1984)

It's Immaterial - White Man's Hut (Eternal)

Clanking bony things aplenty, It's Immaterial go in for rural/tribal chic. Tambourines and infant school choirs also get a look in on this cheeky song from the eccentric Liverpool band. Deserves to be a hit. (Peter Martin, Smash Hits, October 27, 1983)

Busy, industrious Scouse pop. There's nothing wrong with that, but the best music to come out of Liverpool sets its sights a little higher. (Sunie, No 1, October 15, 1983)

Shambeko! Say Wah! - Remember (Eternal)

Everyone's doing it. The cult chaps of yesteryear are now leap-frogging over each other to get into the charts. The 'Beeks stand a good chance. The song is instantly likeable and producer Clive Langer has topped it up with an extra zing. (Ian Birch, Smash Hits, April 15, 1982)
