Whirlwind is the fourth album by singer-songwriter Andrew Gold. It was released in 1980 on Asylum Records. It is Gold's final major label album and last solo album of any kind for over a decade.

Reception

Rolling Stone's Stephen Holden called Whirlwind "a well-crafted album of imitation rock by a pop sentimentalist unconvincingly crying tough." Concluding "the record merely reaffirms Andrew Gold's skill as a meticulous pop interior designer recycling Sixties guitar hooks into blandly tasteful studio settings."^[3]AllMusic's James Chrispell noted "[t]he hits were not forthcoming" and the "album came and went in nearly the blink of an eye, and not much else was heard from Andrew Gold's once-promising solo career."^[1]
