[1970-1974 Best Songs]
Billboard Top 100, 1974, #64
Minimalism. Radar Love is just pure, simple Rock N' Roll. Most of the song is a guitar, a bass and drums. A bit of horns is thrown in for a bigger crescendo toward the end. Nothing else - no strings, no synthesizers, no backup singers.
The raw, deliberately UNDER-produced sound makes it stand out among the songs of its day. It also leaves little room for error. Kind of like a model without her makeup: she's got to be extraordinary.
All I can think of is Raquel Welch... (really, that's all I can think of.)
