Our Take

The Go-Go's Vacation (Opaque Lavender Vinyl) - Album Review

In a world that sometimes feels like a never-ending Groundhog Day of chaos and confusion, The Go-Go's are here to remind us to take a damn break and go on, you guessed it, Vacation! The iconic all-female band's sophomore album has been given the royal treatment with this luxurious opaque lavender vinyl release, and let me tell you, it's a real treat for the eyes and ears.

From the moment you drop the needle on this beauty, you're transported back to the carefree days of the '80s when MTV ruled the airwaves and shoulder pads were a must-have accessory. The infectious energy of tracks like "Vacation" and "Head Over Heels" will have you dancing around your living room like a maniac, much to the dismay of your neighbours (who cares, really?)

But it's not all just fun and games with The Go-Go's. Tracks like "This Old Feeling" and "It's Everything but Partytime" showcase the band's depth and maturity, proving that they're not just a one-trick pony. And let's not forget about the iconic harmonies that made The Go-Go's stand out from the crowd - they're as tight as ever on this record.

So if you need a break from the monotony of everyday life, pop this bad boy on your turntable, pour yourself a cocktail (or three), and let The Go-Go's whisk you away to a world of neon lights, big hair, and endless possibilities. Vacation is a state of mind, baby, and The Go-Go's are your ticket to paradise.

About the artist

The Go-Go's

The GO-GOs are the quintessential embodiment of the vibrant, rebellious spirit of 80s new wave music. Hailing from the sunny shores of Los Angeles, this all-female group burst onto the scene in 1981 with their smash hit single "Our Lips Are Sealed" which captured the hearts of fans worldwide. Led by the fearless frontwoman Belinda Carlisle, the GO-GOs quickly became renowned for their infectious energy, catchy melodies, and killer guitar riffs. With a sound that seamlessly blended punk rock attitude with pop sensibilities, they carved a unique space for themselves in the male-dominated music industry of the time. Their debut album Beauty and the Beat skyrocketed to the top of the charts, making them the first all-female group to achieve a number one album. Hits like "Vacation" and "We Got the Beat" solidified their status as icons of the era, with their songs still being played on radio stations and dance floors to this day. But the GO-GOs weren't just about the music - they were also known for their wild antics, rebellious spirit, and unabashed femininity. From their daring fashion choices to their energetic live performances, they proved that women could rock just as hard (if not harder) than their male counterparts. Despite internal tensions and lineup changes over the years, the GO-GOs have remained a powerful force in the music industry, inspiring generations of female artists to break boundaries and forge their own paths. Their legacy as trailblazers in the world of rock and roll is one that will never be forgotten.
