LOVE'S A PRIMA DONNA features two of Harley's finest songs in the title track, a bracing song that features the writer waxing comical about the pitfalls of love over a briskly paced pop tune that fleshes out its pub-piano melody with flamenco guitar and a choir, and "(Love) Compared With You," a delicately orchestrated love ballad that manages to be touching and heartfelt without lapsing into sappy sentimentality. This album also produced one of Harley's biggest hits with an arty, synthesizer-laced cover of the Beatles' classic "Here Comes the Sun." The remainder of the album juggles genres as diverse as prog rock, folk, doo wop, and reggae as Harley carefully balances his musical ambitions with his knack for pop hooks. Harley's ambitions occasionally overwhelm him ("Innocence and Guilt" goes a bit overboard on studio effects), but the best songs rank with Harley's finest work and the album manages to overcome its occasional excesses thanks to a crisp, consistent production that keeps its genre-hopping sounding smooth. In short, Love Is a Prima Donna takes a few listens to assimilate, but it is an impressively crafted album that offers plenty of rewards for Harley fans and anyone who can appreciate glam rock at its most artsy.
