Rick Springfield may have been a soap-opera heartthrob, but he started out as a rocker in his native Australia, and his 1981 U.S. breakthrough, WORKING CLASS DOG, is a power-pop classic. "Jessie's Girl" remains a part of the collective pop consciousness decades after its release, and the mix of pop and New Wave-tinged rock on "I've Done Everything For You" is just as credible as anything Matthew Sweet has ever turned out. The addition of two previously unreleased tunes and a bare-bones demo of "Jessie's Girl" sweeten the pot for the Legacy reissue of this benchmark '80s pop gem.
