Retronaut Selects: Foreigner - Double Vision (1978)

Published on 15 April 2019 at 10:15

I got into this album because my dad had an extra copy that was a later edition and he gave it to me when I started record collecting.

Before I had my own collection, my dad let me dig through his and borrow whatever I wanted. That’s how I got into so many different albums on vinyl. I knew a lot of it from hearing on CD, but once I got a turntable, everything changed.

I got to hear all the bands from my teenage years like Starz, Riot and Waysted on vinyl and it was so much different than it is on CD. 

Something about watching the record spin and just letting side one and side two play really makes you appreciate the whole album experience.

With that, I started listening to Double Vision, which is an insanely popular album. It is also an insanely great album. Hot Blooded was one of the best known songs from it, but there’s so much more to Double Vision than just this tune.

Hot Blooded is one of the many songs that add to the masterpiece that is Double Vision.


Essential Tracks: Love Has Taken It’s Toll, Lonely Children, Blue Morning, Blue Day
