Def Leppard have a glimmer of hope here.

Wishy washy album. Wishy washy songs. Apart from "You're so Vain" the only other thing that's remotely interesting is the front cover.Def Leppard have a glimmer of hope here.
Isn't that the point of the thread?I havent voted for any of the albums yet because they would all get a zero or one, and that would be unfair, as there are some talented artists so far, but I just dont like them.

No Secrets is the third studio album by American singer-songwriter Carly Simon, released on November 28, 1972, by Elektra Records.
The album was Simon's major commercial breakthrough; it spent five weeks at No. 1 on the US Billboard 200 chart and quickly went Gold, as did its lead single, "You're So Vain", which remained at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for three weeks, and the Adult Contemporary chart for two weeks. Twenty-five years after its initial release, No Secrets was officially certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on December 12, 1997.

Here we go! Review No 9 - You're so vain you probably think this review is a bout you, don't you !? - The lovely Carly Simon kicks off our Album for the week - A mix of personal and poignant songs and her voice is very nice, for a album 50 years old this is still sounding very fresh - whilst many songs stand the test of time it is hard to pinpoint which ones are exactly the classic's aside from 'You're So Vain' , 'We Have No Secrets' is nice enough and showcases her voice and subtle lyricism also 'Night Owl' is quite a good upbeat cover - but i'm struggling to find anything else memorable on here.
'You're so Vain' is just the stand out - it is a wonderfully produced classic pop song with the help of Mick Jagger on back up vocals.
A talented artist and a wonderful voice (and a nice pair of nipples) but 'No Secrets' was just too bland for me.
This placed 997 out of the Top 1000
5/10

Dave Crosby's been on, he wants to know whether it will improve his Blue Moon scoring if he gets his nips out........... ;-)Wishy washy album. Wishy washy songs. Apart from "You're so Vain" the only other thing that's remotely interesting is the front cover.
The whole album is dull, uninspiring and not worth a top 10,000 slot let alone a top 1000.
2/10
1 for You've So Vain and 1 for the nips.
