Another bit of clever packaging outside (the record label featured an iris that appeared through a cutout on the sleeve) and inside, where producer David Foster and even more members of {|Toto|} help {|the Tubes|} punch up their new radio-ready sound with added energy. If their last record showed a newfound dancefloor sensibility, Outside Inside is absolutely funky. There are plenty of over-the-top arena pop numbers on here, including the hit She's a Beauty, No Not Again, and Tip of My Tongue. Yet with so many cooks in the kitchen, the record is peppered with some strange entries, like Wild Women of Wongo, Drums, and Outside Looking Inside. Maybe the Tubes were trying to exorcise their own artistic demons, the better to play a song like Fantastic Delusion or The Monkey Time with a clear conscience. Outside Inside is definitely a party record, which is fine, except that the Tubes were never a party band (after all, their most radio-friendly album to date, {|The Completion Backward Principle|}, was still pretty dark). The change in direction will probably alienate old fans, just as it clearly attracted new ones (the record reached the U.S. Top 20). If you enjoyed their hits from the '80s (e.g., Talk to You Later, She's a Beauty), this is the album to own. Music>Music>Pop Rock>Pop Rock>Pop Rock, Bgo - Beat Goes On Core >3<
