Another look at the top ten of 1980
By Ted Treat
Battalion Reporter
Everybody that has ever read
"Rolling Stone" or any music
magazine has an opinion on the
nuances about who are the best
artists of rock music.
And since opinions are general
ly easy to come by, they are even
easier to be disagreed with. And
these selections should be the
basis for some good arguments.
With that introduction, I would
like to semi-proudly present my
"Top Ten" artists of the year for
1980:
10: Utopia's "Deface the Music"
— In this album Todd Rundgren
and Utopia come fairly close to du
plicating the masterpiece produc
tions of the Beatle's "Sergeant Pep
per's Lonely Hearts Club Band"
and "Magical Mystery Tour."
They have it down to the letter,
right down to the eerie, mono-like
sound, the noises in the back
ground, cars buzzing by, voices
and police sirens from nowhere.
With the cuts "Hoi Poloi" and
"Everybody Else is Wrong," Uto
pia tries to convince the listener
that they are really John, Paul,
George and Ringo, which is not
such a bad idea.
9: Bruce Springsteen's "The
River" — It's been over two years
since the Boss' last rock 'n' roll
epic, "Darkness on the Edge of
Town," and he came out with a
two-record set featuring the E-
Street Band playing as well as ever.
Best cuts include "Hungry
Heart," which has a nice, Latin-
influenced melody with good har
mony parts, and "Sherry Darl
ing," a fun party song that re
minds one of the Beach Boys' "Bar
bara Ann."
8: Def Leppard — Def Leppard
is one of the youngest bands to
invade America's shores. When its
first album came out last year the
band members' average age was
18. Def Leppard presents the lis
tener with a good and unique de
but album, showing the "down"
side of life.
7: Van Halen's "Women and
Children First" — Van Halen is
known as being a "group on the
edge." The result of their unres
trained fury is the album "Women
and Children First." Not giving
way to trendy, new wave hype.
Van Halen presents its own ver
sion of heavy-metal unheard of in
recent years, which is definitely
rock at its best.
6: Judas Priest's "British Steel"
— One can't name the year's best
without recognizing this album,
which showcases the group's grit
ty, wham-bam-thank-you-ma'am
style of grunt rock.
Priest delivers a sermon that
acknowledges crime as a way of
RECORDS
getting out of the slums. They
preach a song, "Breaking the
Law," which is well-done musical
ly and spiced with bitter-tasting,
slap-in-the-face lyrics.
5: Triumph's "Progressions of
Power" — With an album that
perhaps matches their last effort.
"It's Just a Game," lead guitarist
Rick Emmet drives home a song —
the supreme, accoustical achieve
ment "Finger Talking" — which
clearly marks him as a talented,
classical guitarist.
"Hard Road" is my favorite cut
on the album. Telling about the
frustrations that are ahead in life, it
is quite a change from "Hold On."
4: Scorpions' "Animal Magnet
ism" — This excellent album,
which follows the earlier "Love
Drive," proves that the Scorpions
are one of the most unique and
talented groups around. They
actually improve album after
album. "The Zoo," "Falling In
Love" and "Make It Real" are
three songs that show what an ex
cellent album "Animal Magnet
ism" really is
3: Black Sabbath's "Heaven and
Hell" — As first place closes in,
notice a move towards more
thought-challenging and melodic
songs, such as those presented on
this album.
"Heaven and Hell" represents
the initiation of lyricist/vocalist
Ronnie James Dio into the Sabbath
fold. Dio utilizes his creative abili
ties on songs like "Children of the
Sea."
2: Pink Floyd's "The Wall" —
After a long absence Pink Floyd
came back in 1980 with one of the
most brillant creations since their
last classic, "Dark Side of the
Moon." "The Wall" is an entranc
ing "story" about the adventures
of a fictional rock star, Mr. Floyd,
who builds an emotional "wall"
about himself to block out happi
ness and fulfillment.
This is a very good concept
album, and meets Pink Floyd's
high standards.
1: The Doors' "Greatest Hits" —
Jim Morrison, the Doors' lyricist/
vocalist who died in Paris in 1971
and is now wanted for resurrec
tion, was the "Lizzard King" poet
and singer of the '60s under
ground scene. The two best cuts
from this album were selected
from the Doors' last album
together, "L.A. Woman", which
runs a close second to "Greatest
Hits".
