PAUL COLLINS: "Flying High"
A classic among the classics, Paul Collins essentially invented the genre of energy-infused power-pop. The Beat’s debut with its skittering guitar-and-adrenaline stompers like “Rock and roll girl” or “Walking out on love” remains the style’s apex and established an archetype that lesser bands like The Romantics and The Knack parlayed into mass success.  His first solo turn in 12 years proves his gift for a hook is still intact...
