Rachel Sweet "Blame It On Love" LP (1982)

Details: Rachel Sweet's final full-length of material outside of soundtrack and other work. Released in 1982 on Columbia Records. Cover edge/shelf and corner wear, ring wear on front back of cover (most noticeable near top). Gold promo stamp over UPC on back.

Description: "Blame It on Love shows signs of revitalization. Though it sounds Tom Petty-influenced, Sweet wrote the entire album’s worth of catchy material. She may never regain the youthful charm of her debut LP, but at least this LP shows her regaining control over her musical direction.

The diminutive powerhouse was not again heard from until early 1988, when John Waters tapped her to record the title song of his film, Hairspray. Sweet entered the TV world in ’89 with a daily show on cable’s Comedy Channel and wound up (reportedly) doing the voice of Barbie on a Saturday morning cartoon."--John Walker, Ira Robbins, Trouser Press
