1 stars Man this was such a disappointment after ' The Original Soundtrack" and " How Dare You". I had to relisten to it on numerous occassions to find something worth convincing me that it was an OK album. If there was ever the concept that the previous album was so good that anything else a band tried to do would not cut it, then 10CC achived that with the dismal ' Deceptive Bends". I remember Queen and Kansas being especially alive with their current releases at the time and hoped ' Deceptive Bends' would cut the mustard. Apart from the commercial ' The Things We do For Love' which fades far too early mid song I find little else on thsi album worth chirping about so have to give it a solid one star. This album truly did die with the onset of punk and all the other anti establishment new wave around at the time and unfortunately it could not rise to the bait!
