Look At Us (CD)

Although touted as the misunderstood young lovers of 1965 folk-rock, Sonny Bono and Cher were not all their image suggested. Bono had a history in the music business stretching back to the late '50s, and became romantically attached to Cher, who was working as a backing singer. The duo found fame with 1965's transatlantic number 1, "I Got You Babe," and followed it up, as both a duo and soloists, with a formidable passel of hit singles. In the '70s they hosted their own television variety show, and Cher enjoyed a phenomenally successful acting and singing career, while Bono became a successful politician before dying in a skiing accident in 1998.

Sonny and Cher had released a handful of previous singles, under both their own names and the pseudonyms Caesar and Cleo, but this is their full length debut album, a curious mix of folk-rock jangle and Spector-influenced orchestral pop. Sonny Bono worked under Spector as a go-fer, session musician and staff songwriter, and his admiration for the producer's patented Wall of Sound verges on slavish imitation in spots. It's clearly felt on "Let It Be Me" and a note-for-note cover of the Crystals' "Then He Kissed Me." It's the folk-rock material, like the enormous hit "I Got You Babe," the sweet "Five Hundred Miles," and a terrific version of the Beau Brummels' "Don't Talk To Strangers," that's the most interesting. Wisely, Sundazed chose to use the superior mono mixes for this excellent reissue.
