The Rembrandts - L.P. (1995)
Most of the merits of the Rembrandts' third album, LP,
were overshadowed by the massive success of "I'll Be There for You,"
the infectious theme from the hit Generation X sitcom Friends. Included
on LP
at the last minute -- the first pressings didn't list the song on the
album cover -- "I'll Be There for You" received saturation radio
airplay, topping the adult contemporary charts, yet it was never
released as a single, forcing fans to buy the entire album to own the
song.
While the Monkees guitar riffs and layered harmonies are not entirely representative of the Rembrandts
-- it makes them out to be a bubblegum band -- the record is filled
with smart, hook-laden guitar pop that won't disappoint old Rembrandts fans or listeners attracted by the hit.
I believe the guys...or girls...:-) of Allmusic seems to be big fans of the soap opera Friends. You can't nothing read about the Rembrandts without reading nearly more about Friends. Anyway you all know the Rembrandts and this is a fine album in the tradition of the Rembrandts.
Enjoy it
