}} ''Race'' is the third studio album released by Australian new wave band, Pseudo Echo. It was released via EMI Australia in 1988 and RCA Records internationally in 1989. ''Race'' resulted in a musical change for the group as it mirrored the music landscape at the time; dominated by big hair, big guitars and rock. While the album no doubt alienated the majority of the bands fan base, it equally attracted a new breed of rock loving fans.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Pseudo Echo - Race (1988) )〕 The album included their track "Take On the World" which won at 1987 World Popular Song Festival (aka Yamaha Music Festival) in Japan.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=18th World Popular Song Festival World Popular Song Festival in Tokyo '87 )〕 Three singles were released from the album, the first "Fooled Again" (which had "Take On The World" as a B-side) peaked at No.32 in Australia in late 1988.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=PSEUDO ECHO - FOOLED AGAIN (SONG) )〕 ==Reviews== Allmusic gave the album 3 out of 5 stars.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Pseudo Echo - Race )〕 The Doctor of alltime records gave the album 2 & 1/2 out of 7 stars, saying: "Pseudo Echo’s third album came when their fame was fading and facing this reality, they attempted to change their image and style, becoming a hard rock band. What resulted was ''Race'', an album that was a flop both commercially and critically. With the constant sound of crunching and whining guitars, this is a record of corny, pretentious songs."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Race by Pseudo Echo )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Race (album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
