All Four One, the Motels' third album, came out on Capitol in 1982, produced by Val Garay and recorded and mixed digitally. The Berkeley band follows up Careful with cool, moody new wave, all shadows and neon, and Martha Davis's smoky, aching voice sits right at the center of it.

"Only the Lonely" became a top ten hit and "Take the L" followed it, both helped along by music videos that MTV played heavily. It's a late-night record, glossy on the surface and lonesome underneath.
