As for debut records - this one is hard to beat in my book. Of course there is Boston, Boston - that debut record may top them all, but this is pretty close. And to me - it just screams summer. Released in 1985 - it took off with Your Love (Josie's on a vacation far away) in the summer of 1986. I saw The Outfield at a bar a few years ago. They were great - but it was rather pitiful - they went from mid-eighties sold out arena rock to a half-empty bar near me. This album is dangerously close to being on my top five deserted island records list. There is not a bad cut on it.
