Cover EX.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter recording a series of albums that established him as a pop-minded interpreter of soul styles, Robert Palmer surprised fans in 1980 with the stylistic about-face of Clues. On this album, he brought his sound into the new wave era by playing up the rock edge to his music, stripping the high-production gloss from his sound, and incorporating synthesizers into the arrangements. The end result became a big hit in the U.K. and paved the way for later international successes like Riptide and Heavy Nova. Clues also produced two notable singles in \"Looking for Clues,\" a clever slice of new wave pop that surprises the listener with an unexpected xylophone solo, and \"Johnny and Mary,\" a moody synth-driven ballad with perceptive lyrics about a doomed romantic relationship. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracklist\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1.
