Burning Bridges was Naked Eyes' 1983 debut album. The album was released in the United States and Canada as Naked Eyes with two tracks demoted to B-sides. The track "Always Something There to Remind Me" was released as a single and reached No. 59 in the United Kingdom chart and US Top 10 in July 1983. The album was released for the first time on CD in 2012 by Cherry Red Records.
All tracks written by Pete Byrne and Rob Fisher, except where noted.
The North American release of Burning Bridges was issued in April 1983, retitled as Naked Eyes and released with an alternate cover.
The two deleted songs, "The Time Is Now" and "A Very Hard Act to Follow" were issued in the US as the b-sides of "Always Something There to Remind Me" and "Promises, Promises."
Tony Mansfield is listed as having played "guitar" (but not "bass guitar") on the British version of the album (Burning Bridges), while on the American version (self-titled), he is listed as playing "bass guitar" (but not "guitar"). It thus seems reasonable to assume that he played both instruments on the album.
