The Lambrettas - Somebody To Love
Review by Colleen Eakins
The Lambrettas released their album Somebody To Love in 1980, and it quickly became a fan favorite. The album features a mix of punk, new wave, and mod influences that create a unique sound that sets it apart from other albums of the time.
The standout tracks on the album include the title track "Somebody To Love," which is an upbeat and catchy tune that showcases the band's ability to write infectious pop songs. The song "Cortina MK II" is another highlight, with its driving rhythm and catchy chorus.

Notes
- There were three versions of "Somebody To Love" pressed,
- This pressing
- "Nobody's Watching Me" as it's B side track which is also listed on the sleeve
- No 2 has
- "Leap Before You Look" as it's B side track which is also listed on sleeve
- Runout B, X P R E S 7 4 B // 2 ▽ 4 2 0 W 1 1 3
- No 3 has
- "Leap Before You Look" as it's B side track which is also listed on sleeve but plays "Nobody's Watching Me"
- Runout B, X PRES 74 B // 1 ▽ 42 0 R 1 1 2
- "Nobody's Watching Me" play's on Side B, and not "Leap Before You Look" as stated on label & sleeve,
- Not sure if this version is rare or not as have come across a few copies while investigating this version from my collection, before listing it, but definitely seems to be a cross over mix up as i have a copy that actually plays "Leap Before You Look"
- Record label states that B side track is taken from the album "Beat Boys In The Jet Age" and is dated ℗ 1980 but this is information for "Leap Before You Look" and not the track that actually play's on the B side.
- B side track is taken from the album "Beat Boys In The Jet Age" and is dated ℗ 1980

The Lambrettas could have done this song so much better but this is a terrible arrangement. An opportunity missed.
