Success Hasn't Spoiled Me Yet (CD)

After leading the group Zoot, Australian pop-rocker Rick Springfield started a solo career in the early 1970s. But because of label troubles, he forsook music for acting. His visibility as a regular on the popular soap opera GENERAL HOSPITAL enabled him to relaunch his musical career in the early '80s. He scored a number of big hits over the next few years, and also began appearing in films. By the late '80s, when the hits stopped coming, he concentrated on acting again, but after about a decade he returned to performing and recording, much to the delight of those who'd followed his career since the days of his breakout '81 smash "Jessie's Girl."

After WORKING CLASS DOG became a surprise hit, thanks to the smash single "Jessie's Girl," soap-opera star/musician Rick Springfield followed up the album with 1982's appropriately titled SUCCESS HASN'T SPOILED ME YET. Clearly in the same mold as DOG, even down to its cover photo, SUCCESS proved that the earlier outing wasn't just a fluke by presenting another catchy and dramatic set of pop/rock tracks, most notably the angst-ridden "What Kind of Fool Am I" and the urgent, Journey-like "Don't Talk to Strangers." While the WRITTEN IN ROCK compilation should satisfy those looking for a healthy dose of Springfield's finest, SUCCESS is essential for those unabashedly devoted to the charming performer.
