One of the greatest and most successful debut albums in the history of rock & roll, Get The Knack emerged from a late seventies landscape that was littered with disco and overblown rock. Punk and new wave were taking hold when this completely infectious, melodic and punchy music came screaming out of the L.A. club scene and created one of the music industry’s most famous bidding wars.
Get The Knack features some of the greatest power pop music ever made and includes the massive worldwide number one hit “My Sharona” and its follow-up single “Good Girls Don’t” that was extremely successful in its own right. Despite the quality of some of the music that followed, this incredible album was the “crowning achievement” of the bands career.
This Iconoclassic release features insightful liner notes by Ken Sharp and definitive remastering by Grammy Award®-winning engineer, Vic Anesini.
