Yoyo

Bourgeois Tagg

1987
Island Records

The second and final Bourgeois Tagg album was also the band’s most successful, thanks to the low key but still Top 40 charting “I Don’t Mind At All,” a short, sweetly orchestrated and sung breakup ballad that also had a notable video. All the same, Yoyo is an audibly late 80s major label effort – there’s an awkwardness in a lot of the songs, with Todd Rundgren’s usual production polish servicing an airless stiffness masquerading as slick pop/funk more than once – but whenever Brent Bourgeois and Larry Tagg harmonize the results are very attractive.
