For today's post, I bring you Tight Fit's self-titled second album from 1982. As far as I can tell, this album is long out-of-print (Discogs only lists one CD reissue from Europe in 1994 re-titled as 'Greatest Hits' but with the same tracklisting). The source of my rip is a mint vinyl, although my stylus and software don't quite do it justice. I am uploading it without any audio remastering or noise compression (perhaps some day I will re-visit my vinyl rips with an updated record player and software, but for now, this'll have to do).
Anyway, Tight Fit were a UK-based group whose lineup changed at least twice. As a result, the group pictured on the cover were not the voices behind every song on this LP.
The biggest hit single from this LP is a re-make of the popular The Lion Sleeps Tonight that became a hit throughout Europe in 1982 (UK#1, for example).
There are also at least three VERY ABBA-esque songs on this album, the UK#5 single Fantasy Island, the pleasant Secret Heart (UK#41), and the song I'm Undecided.
The remaining tracks are not without their charms, but for the most part, it is those four songs that stound out from the filler on the rest of the album.

01. The Lion Sleeps Tonight
