Jim Diamond - Desire (A&M)

Who are these people that go out and buy Jim Diamond records by the trunk load? 'Cos I know what I'll do if I ever come across one. . . sorry, got a bit carried away there. . . it's having to listen to this gut-wrenching piece of plastic, heavily disguised as the latest gem from heart-throb Jim. What a stunner! What a desirable item to grace any record collection! What utter piffle! 1/5 (Anna Martin, No 1, May 10, 1986)

Jim Diamond - Young Love (A&M)

The most amazing thing about this record is Jim's bizarre alien dreadlocks on the poster bag. He looks like an insect in a ballet outfit, but don't let that put you off the record. The song is a very sincere love ballad. I'm sure it could have moved me even if I hadn't been so preoccupied with the record sleeve. 2/5 (Ralph Tee, No 1, July 12, 1986)
