Produktbeschreibungen

Es war, logo, nur eine Frage der Zeit, bis nach den Söhnen auch die Töchter kommen: zwei Gören aus der Sippe des Ober-Beach-Boy Brian Wilson, die Eltern von Miß Phillips hingegen waren Mamas & Papas. Und die Blagen? Nette Stimmen, aber sonst eher untalentiert. Die Wilson-Girls rührten in Sachen Songwriting keinen Finger, auch Chynna Phillips bekleckerte sich nicht mit Ruhm. Die Sahne stammt also wieder mal von den Studiomusikern, hier der Creme kalifornischer Altstars. Fazit: Nicht allzu aufregend.

Girlie-Pop mit Geschichte: Was passiert, wenn sich zwei Töchter von Beach Boy Brian Wilson und ein weiblicher Sproß der Mamas & Papas zusammentun? Wilson Phillips liefern die poppige Strand-Kollektion für den Sommer, mal sonnig-verträumt, mal surfig-schneidig, aber nie verrucht oder gar gewagt. Mit Songs wie "Hold On" und putzigen Gesangssätzen segeln die drei Mädels im Fahrwasser von Belinda Carlisle und den Bangles - nett, aber porentief rein.

Review by Alex Henderson

Sugary, commercial pop/rock isn't necessarily a bad thing, and in fact can be fairly enjoyable in the right hands. But Wilson Phillips are much too sweet for their own good. This debut album -- which amazingly went five-times platinum during the early 1990s -- is about as lightweight and sophomoric as it gets. Chynna Phillips' weak singing on such homogenized, mundane fluff as "Impulsive," "The Dream Is Still Alive," and the chart-topping "Hold On" isn't even remotely convincing. Compared to Phillips' saccharine performances on "You're in Love" (another major hit) and "A Reason to Believe," even Tiffany and Debbie Gibson's debut albums have some bite.
