Review

Okay, let's dive into Al Corley's 'Square Rooms' - this 1984 debut album is pure 80s gold, y'all! Corley, fresh off his 'Dynasty' fame, decided to swap the small screen for the recording studio, and honestly? It was a pretty sweet move.

The whole vibe of 'Square Rooms' is like stepping into a time machine set for peak 80s. It's got that Harold Faltermeyer touch - you know, the guy behind Laura Branigan's 'Self Control' and that killer 'Axel F' theme from 'Beverly Hills Cop'? Yeah, that guy. So you know it's gonna be synth-heavy and dance-floor ready.

The title track 'Square Rooms' is where it's at, though. It's got this moody, atmospheric thing going on that'll make you feel all the feels. Corley's vocals are giving brooding heartthrob, and it totally works with the whole isolated, disconnected vibe of the song. It was a hit in Europe and even made some waves stateside. The rest of the album keeps that energy going - it's like a love letter to 80s pop, rock, and electronic music all rolled into one nostalgic package. - Kaitlyn
