10cc's third album is their first after their break with novelty-minded pop impresario Jonathan King, and as a result, it's less cute and bouncy than either 10CC or SHEET MUSIC. This doesn't mean that the music is less melodic, or that the group's satiric intent is duller, but THE ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK is a more subtle, mature record.
The group was rewarded with their first US hit, the exquisitely lovely and understated "I'm Not In Love," surely one of the oddest love songs--in both arch concept and minimal execution--of the era. Elsewhere, Eric Stewart, Graham Gouldman, Lol CrFme, and Kevin Godley get their first opportunity to stretch out compositionally on the surprising extended suite "Une Nuit a Paris" and the lyrically acute "The Second Sitting for the Last Supper." While not all of 10cc's new fans got all of the jokes, art pop aficionados swear by this album.
