| J-Card Comment | The Motels "The Tim McGovern Experience" ---Rock Goes To College, University Of Bradford, UK 10 December 1980--- (39:17) Kix Days Are O.K. (But The Nights Were Made For Love) Closets & Bullets Whose Problem? Total Control Party Professionals Cry Baby Envy Danger ---Promo Videos--- (10:20) Whose Problem? Danger Bonjour Baby Guitarist Tim McGovern, formerly of the Pop, joined the Motels prior to the release of the 1980 sophomore effort Careful. "Tim McGovern is Careful's greatest asset, not only for his songwriting but for the new music he brings to the Motels sound. His terse lyrics and edgy fuzz-tone solo give "Envy" an honest urgency that's absent from the brittle compositions of keyboardist Marty Jourard and bassist Michael Goodroe, as well as from Davis' own tunes. Martha Davis can be a smart, slick wordsmith, but her melodies are generally hookless and plodding. Without the kick this band gets from Tim McGovern, the Motels would be strictly prefab." -Rolling Stone #327 After Capitol rejected the Motels' third album, All Four One, McGovern exited, and the group re-recorded the album. |
