Starfish


Product Details


I started listening again to the music that defined my taste 20+ years ago. When I got to "Starfish" (hearing it for the first time in several years), an immediate smile came over my face. I remembered the easy-on-the-ears, casual summer hackey sack fest, driving with the top down style that made this album sweep through my college campus like wildfire. Now and then, I'll place a couple of tracks from "Starfish" onto my outdoor party playlist and I just watch the people almost unwittingly start bobbing their heads to the music. Then they typically ask me for the band's name.

"Under the Mily Way" is still one of my favorite songs. And although unknown to the general public, this album is a classic and still very playable.

Product Reviews


(5 stars) - It's great music from the 80's!
I bought this item because I had the cassette. Also because I was watching reruns of Miami Vice and two of the tracks are in an episode of the last season. If you love the 80's, you'll love this CD.



(3 stars) - An album of good material
I have always had admiration for the song "Under the Milky Way" throughout the years and decided to get 1988's Starfish from the Church in order to hear what the rest of the album was about. After several listening sessions, the rest of the disc has grown on me. Starfish sports ten compositions, and the material is in an earthy pop rock music direction. Altogether, the songwriting is satisfying, the musicianship is solid, and the sound quality is worthy. Steve Kilbey (bass guitar/lead vocals) handles all of the singing except for the cuts "Spark" and "A New Season." Guitarist Marty Willson-Piper turns out the vocals on "Spark," while guitarist Peter Koppes sings on "A New Season." I like the meat-and-potatoes vocals of all three of the guys. Examples of tunes that I enjoy are "Destination," "Under the Milky Way," and "Lost." "Destination" is a nice song with a pleasant guitar line. "Under the Milky Way" is unforgettable and pretty, while the laidback "Lost" is gratifying. The disc is just over 46 minutes. Starfish is recommendable.



(5 stars) - STILL ONE OF MY FAVORITES
I HAVE ABOUT 1800 CD'S AND ALBUMS AT THIS POINT AND THIS ONE WOULD HAVE TO BE IN MY TOP TEN. I BOUGHT IT WHEN IT WAS RELEASED IN 88' AND I'M SURE I HAVE LISTENED TO IT HUNDREDS OF TIMES OVER THE LAST 20 YEARS. I WOULD ALSO SAY THAT THIS IS THEIR BEST ALBUM TO DATE.



(5 stars) - Great great great
Great album with no filler. It's a perfect rock album to play on a night when things are quiet.
