RecommendEven with the overlying despair and heartbreak evident on this album, one cannot help but admire the beauty of it. Recorded while Richard and Linda's marriage was in turmoil they were able to harness their feelings and get them down on tape. Shoot Out The Lights is a case of everything coming together and seamlessly flowing as a complete work. With LInda and richard trading off vocals a nice variety is held while the tone of the album stays primarily the same. I'm sure that once these feelings were out in the open it put the nails in the coffin of their marriage. Heartbreak is quite often the key to amzing creativity.
