My review

Level of familiarity before listening

I’ve never heard of Peter Allen and don’t know anything about him.

What I expected

This is tricky because there’s not a lot on the album cover to give me hints, but I’ll guess jazz.

What it was actually like

This was a pretty classic 1970s singer-songwriter record, representing everything I dislike about (some, not all) 70s music. Interestingly, I Go To Rio also managed to anticipate everything I dislike about 80s music as well.

Peter Allen strikes me as like a less talented Elton John.

Grade

1/5: horrible enough that I couldn’t make it through
