Robert Palmer entered the 80's decade on one of the creative highpoints of his career. It's a very short album-under 30 minutes in fact but so is Bob Dylan's simiarly underrated Nashville Skyline so time has nothing to do with it. Palmer really packed a punch on what time he did have on this album and had a lot of great musical ideas to put. In 1980 there were a whole lot of different genres colliding together during the music industry resession. Looking For Clues" is one of the most successful rhythmic inventions Palmer ever came up with. It's new wave,funk,ska and South African pop all rolled up into one and it was even a hit for him with the inclusion of a clever music video as well. There are some soul rockers here somewhat in the Rolling Stone's style such as "Sulky Girl","What Do You Care","Woke Up Laughing" and a cover of The Beatles "Not A Second Time".

Released September 1980. 1. Looking For Clues Lyrics. 2. Sulky Girl Lyrics.
