Short intro

Rhyme & Reason is the second album by American new wave band Missing Persons, released in 1984. After the successful debut album by the band, this LP had a significant decline in sales. The pleasant-sounding Surrender Your Heart was its signature single. A video was created for it featuring animations from famous artist Peter Max and received heavy rotation on MTV, but the track was largely ignored by AOR radio. Give and Right Now were also released as singles, and videos made for both received. Missing Persons - Rhyme & Reason 1984. To favorites 1 Download album. Listen album. Alternative Pop-Rock New Wave. Missing Persons. HITS: The Closer That You Get, Surrender Your Heart. Missing Persons was an American band who played a blend of New Wave music and pop rock. The band was founded in 1980 in Los Angeles by guitarist Warren Cuccurullo, vocalist Dale Bozzio, and drummer Terry Bozzio. They went on to add bassist Patrick OHearn and keyboardist Chuck Wild. Dales quirky voice and heavy makeup made the band a favorite on MTV in the early 1980. From this day forward, preamp is a Schitt Mani. Sounds good in my budget system. Though some consider this to be Missing Persons' best album, it is, in essence, a catalog of flawed ambition and missed opportunities. For other, more sober critics, the band's moment had passed and they were in serious danger of outstaying their welcome. Trite rock songs such as Surrender Your Heart did little to assuage that opinion. Rock 1984. Surrender Your Heart. More by Missing Persons.
