'There is little doubt now that David Husselshaft is a major force in the music business these days'

Aural Ecstasy poured into your Ear Trumpet, 20 November, 2002


This is a creatively challenging album, which uncomfortably straddles many musical genres. David roars like a turtle through the screeching monster rock opera that is ‘Highway to your heart’. Although this album can't truly capture the magic of David's live performances (who can forget his legendry 1980 UK sellout tour of the Mr Wimpey burger chain) this album does however paint an intimate portrait of David Hasselhof the man. One can imagine a young teenage David playing hopscotch with his friends, singing along to Boney M (probably Ra Ra Rasputin or Ma Baker) and inwardly yearning to one-day sing just like them. Well track four ‘Do the limbo dance’ realises David’s teenage Boney M dream.

This album has it all, the highs the lows, the heartache and the pain, the laughter and the rain. I must also add a word of warning to pet owners: Do not put headphones on your cat’s ears and play this album to him/her!
Francis (my cat) was ill and needed cheering up, so as a treat I popped the headphones on him and played him his favourites ‘Dance dance d'amour’ and ‘Flying on the wings of tenderness’. All was well and he seemed to be perking up until I introduced a new and daring track entitled ‘Hot Shot City’ Francis responded in a terrifying display of hissing and twitching. The vet told me that Francis the cat had been seriously quadraspazzed by David’s mind bending rendition of this Edith Piaf classic. I’m sure David will be pleased to know that Francis no longer leans to the left when walking and can now walk properly again although he does still cry in his sleep.

these reviews are very funny too. a bit more subtle:
