Reviews

  • normanharvey
    A great album and one of the best debuts of all time

    It was included on the ROLLING STONE MAGAZINE 500 greatest albums of all time.
    Good choice

    i would like to know who the girl on the Album cover is... I have heard that she was a girl from eastern europe who migrated in the late 70s to the US
