About The Record:

Mystery Ticket, by Moon Martin, features X-Ray Vision, which had a music video that became a huge hit on MTv. The album blends synthpop and adult-oriented rock (AOR) elements during the height of his commercial activity in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Featuring a tracklist that includes X-Ray Vision, Witness, She's In Love With My Car, and Paid the Price, the album captures Martin's evolving sound influenced by new wave and electronic production trends of the era. Historically significant as part of Martin's tenure with Capitol following earlier minor hits like Rolene and No Chance, it peaked at No. 205 on the US Billboard 200 and contributed to the burgeoning MTV video culture with the X-Ray Vision clip, an early example of music video promotion in 1982. The album's hit singles were X-Ray Vision, which reached No. 67 on the US Hot Dance Club Songs chart and No. 99 in Australia, and Aces with You, charting at No. 95 in Australia, marking Martin's last notable chart entries.
