1983














Tracks
1. Karma Chameleon

6. Church Of The Poison Mind

This is the final album of 1983 and what a way to go. Ladies and gentlemen, we have a five star album on our...ears. Ahem. Is this thing on?

This album is absolutely brilliant, starting from the opening track. You will be hard pressed to get some of these melodies out of your head, particularly "Karma Chameleon" and "Church of the Poison Mind." It just doesn't get better than the Culture Club; I wish more people would talk about them. 

Anyway, say goodbye to 1983, which was truly the best (this and The Blue Nile) and the worst (Meat Puppets) of times. Happy holidays!

RATING: 5/5

  1. Love Church of the Poison Mind! My business partner at the time--my fellow aerobics dance instructor--and I used tons from this album to choreograph dance/exercises. Yes, it was the 80's and we did aerobic dance routines. *****
