Rick Springfield Artist Snapshot:

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."

Liner Note Author: Rick Springfield.

Recording information: 1970 - 2005.

Although Rick Springfield is primarily known for his indelibly catchy 1980s hit "Jessie's Girl" and his role as Dr. Noah Drake on the TV soap opera GENERAL HOSPITAL, the Australian singer/actor actually began his recording career during the late 1960s with the band Zoot, and went solo in the early '70s. This well-selected two-disc set features a number of Springfield's initial singles, most notably the jaunty pop tune "Speak to the Sky," as well as his biggest hits (the aforementioned "Jesse's Girl" and the hard-rocking "Affair of the Heart") and latter-day tracks (the sunny "Beautiful You"). Book-ended by Beatles covers (a surprisingly heavy take on "Eleanor Rigby" and a fairly faithful version of "For No One"), WRITTEN IN ROCK is a highly effective argument for Springfield's pop/rock credibility.
