At the time, both Network and Nightwork were indeed little more than disco fodder, laden down with everything from the BeeGees to Hall \u0026amp; Oates, KC \u0026amp; the Sunshine Band, and all points worse than that. Andy Gibb even gets a co-production credit on the debut's \"Save Me Save Me.\" But listened to today, so many ghosts of American rock's future arrive to rattle their chains that half of the '80s are predicted on this disc; from the stadium rock of Toto et. al to the glittering grimace of the hair metal crew, and onto a slab of Journey-esque prog, in the shape of the second album's \"I Already Played It.\" None of which should cause a wholesale rewriting of music history, but a little recognition for Network would be nice. ~ Dave Thompson","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50824999010591,"sku":"630428026421","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/93419d88454d607b380b853ae075c4f6.jpg?v=1777890396","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/network-nightwork","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
