The Fools were a phenomenally successful Boston band in the 1970s and 1980s, but, as often happens, were not presented accurately to the world on their major-label debut, or its follow up. Pete Solley's pedestrian production on the 1980 release Sold Out is almost indiscernible when compared to Vini Poncia's presentation of the band a year later. It is telling that while their first album yielded the excellent "It's A Night For Beautiful Girls," it is the Roy Orbison cover here, "Running Scared," which is the outstanding track on Heavy Mental. These were mental times for Boston rock & roll (a local . actually had the phrase "Go Mental" and would create havoc at Boston area shows), but there is nothing chaotic, crazy, or even marginally psychotic about Heavy Mental.
