memories Nov 18, 2009 Had this many years ago on cassette. Upgraded to cd. Took me back.
80's music Jul 31, 2009 Doesn't so that much better than my albums when I was in high school. Still good music but wait for the remastered if you can. Sent in a timely fashion.
Success Hasn't Spoiled Me Yet by Rick Springfield Apr 03, 2009 I felt like a kid at Christmas when I came across Rick's CDs. I ordered two of everything as I knew my sisters would be just as thrilled. We are all enjoying them very much and my daughter borrowed them to listen to also. They arrived in record time and in perfect condition. Thanks for carrying our favorites and for the great service as well.
Underrated Aug 31, 2008 Yes, you remember Rick Springfield as a teen idol of the 80's... and he was, but, he was so much more than that. If you are a purveyor of power pop, you can't go wrong with this Rick. You might be tempted to get Working Class Dog because it has the mega-hit Jessie's Girl, but this CD is more consistent and is the one Rick Springfield disc to own if you're only gonna own one. But why stop at one?
All time Favorite! Jul 25, 2006 I have never before written an online review of an album for any artist. But having just recently replaced many of my old Rick Springfield albums and cassettes with compact discs, I was reminded just how special these songs were -and are- to me. For me, Success Hasn't Spoiled Me Yet was where it all began. Yes, I know Jessie's Girl (from Working Class Dog) had already been a hit, and Rick was already a heart throb on GH by this time, but for ME, this album was a turning point. Of course Don't Talk To Strangers was what sucked me in...but upon listening to the rest of the album, I found the songs that would stand the test of time for me.
I know there have been many 'greatest hits' and 'best of' compilations of Rick's music. They all include hits from this album. "I Get Excited" is a great song. "Kristina" is an all time fave. We all loved Rick's tribute to his father, "April 24, 1981". But there is one song on this album that is not on those other compilations...and is a good enough reason to make sure Success Hasn't Spoiled Me Yet has a place in your music library. It's my all time favorite Rick Springfield song, "The American Girl". In 1982, I didn't understand all the lyrics. I was 11 years old. But I played this song so many times I can't believe I didn't wear a hole in the vinyl. Once I got this album on cassette, I rewound over and over again to hear my song. Those first few notes still get me every time!
I've listened to and loved Rick's music from the 70's all the way thru today, as he continues to write, record and release new music. His talent is ever apparent, his songs are infectious. He's an amazing performer live. I recommend checking out all of Rick's music if you're unfamiliar. Especially Success Hasn't Spoiled Me Yet, and "The American Girl" in particular!
