About
1976’s self-titled effort was praised heavily by Circus Magazine upon its original release, where it was called the greatest debut album ever produced by an American rock band. While it certainly does not live up to that extreme level of hype, it’s still a solid record, with most everything written and sung solely by Squier. The highlights are two of the poppier number, the power-pop classic “Who’s Your Boyfriend? (I Got a Feelin’)” and the crunchy “Telephone Relation.” “Who’s Your Boyfriend” is slightly reminiscent of CCR’s “Hey Tonight” in spots and was an undeservedly unsuccessful single, while “Telephone Relation” boasts one of those insidiously catchy lead guitar riffs that’s impossible to shake. .
