Here's a review I never forgot.
Possibly the accusation - "Emotional Fascism" - seems in retrospect a little harsh, considering what Dexys soon became (jolly jigsters circa Too-Rye-Aye.... harmless has-beens / heroes-to-some thereafter...). Also in light of Rowland's evidently troubled soul.
Still, as a real-time reaction of repugnance, this is forcefully argued, I think
Those lyrics from The Beat are terrific. Were they intended to be about Rowland? Right on target, if so.
