Description
Prisoner of the Night is Golden Earring's last studio album before the band members decided to call it quits. Following the less successful albums Grab It for a Second (1978) and No Promises...No Debts (1979), this album also sold few copies. Long Blond Animal was the first single and despite the classic status the song acquired in later years, Golden Earring had to settle for a minor hit at the time. The follow-up No for an Answer didn't even make it past the tipparade. Prisoner of the Night hardly fits in with the spirit of the times around 1980, when disco and (to a lesser extent) new wave dominated the charts. You hear none of this on Golden Earring's LP. Only the clinical, futuristic synthesiser tones in the intro to Going Crazy Again, characteristic of the time, suggest that Prisoner of the Night dates from 1980. And those sounds came from a relative outsider: Robert Jan Stips. This seems to explain the album's flop. After this, the rock group from The Hague tried again with Twilight Zone (Golden Earring), which unexpectedly turned out to be a golden move. However, the group was already in a completely different phase of their career at that point. -
