3rd track from "Objects of Desire" (1982). This album is both romantic and thoughtful, so why am I comparing women to beer? Uhhhh, it just seemed to be suggested by the song title? Especially when I started seeing all the descriptive names of brew out there? And I'm just super creative like that? Yeah, that last thing! For sure. ;)

"Objects of Desire was recorded toward the merciful end of the disco era. Franks never followed that fad but here takes a couple of cracks at some aspects of disco culture using tunes faintly redolent of that form to press his point. Ladies Night and No-Deposit Love are the chief examples of this. ...the whole CD is testimony to Franks' status as one of the finest composers and wordsmiths in modern music. I highly recommend this overlooked gem which still sounds great nearly 20 years after its release. [Um, wow, make that 35 years after its release now! –Mimosa]
