The Romantics, Strictly Personal, 1981 on Nemporer

Third album from The Romantics, who originally came out of Detroit MI. Look at the new wave style here – matching pink leather suits and bolo ties.

Did not reach the same heights as their self-titled debut and “What I Like About You” but continues in that same sound. Nemperor was a label founded by Nathan Weiss in the 60s that put out Stanley Clarke, Jerry Goodman, Jan Hammer – The Romantics were one of their biggest artists.

My copy—via Vinyl Destination in Lowell MA—is an original 1981 Pitman pressing.
