The Ward Brothers - Why Do You Run (Siren)
A fifth rate bastard son of Bruce Springsteen's "Downbound Train", this song tries to give a passionate impression and fails miserably. (James Grant [Love And Money], Record Mirror, April 25, 1987)
Secession - The Magician (Siren)
The lyrics on this are a bit silly and the chorus has a Kate Bush section, but other than that, it's OK. (James Grant [Love And Money], Record Mirror, April 25, 1987)
Julian Lennon - Midnight Smoke (Virgin)
I don't think Julian Lennon is all that bad. Mind you, I don't think he's all that good, either. This time, he and his friends are round a campfire getting into a real serious vibe and scaring the sheep shitless. (James Grant [Love And Money], Record Mirror, April 25, 1987)

The Gargoyles - Madmen From The Planet Sex (Reasonable)
Deep, probing lyrics and piercing wit; hard to listen to, but impossible to turn away from. Deeply disturbing and profound. (James Grant [Love & Money], Record Mirror, April 25, 1987)
