I've only ever heard one radio station, St. Louis's former KWK 106.5 FM, play "Takin' It Back" by Breathless. Despite not hearing it on the radio in about 40 years, it's on my mind this morning. The forthright, arena rock-style guitar and vocals seem crafted for an audience of adoring fans ready to rock out.
In short, this is prototypical album rock for its time, i.e. 1980. It still puzzles me that the song barely grazed the charts.
