THE POP - GO! (1979)
The second and famous album "Go!",
this classic Power Pop masterpiece was produced by Earle Mankey, an
original Sparks member and also a renowned Power Pop producer (20/20,
Elevators, The Quick, The Three O'Clock... and others). The overall sound of
"Go!" was very different from the "more garage" first album, evolving,
pushing the boundaries of pop to include not just their original
influences which rapidly developed into a pop-punk hybrid sound of
crunchy and jangly guitars but also the more modern sounds they were
listening to on David Bowie's "Low" and Brian Eno's "Another Green
World" as well. The bands guitarists liked to boast that they could do
anything on guitar a synthesizer could do but cooler and one listen to "Beat Temptation" or "Under The Microscope" backs this up.
