Beginnings is the debut studio album by Australian musician Rick Springfield. The album was released on 28 August 1972, by Sparmac Records. This album was issued in the U.S. on Capitol Records (SMAS-11047).
Reviewing in ' (1981), Robert Christgau wrote: "Would you believe second-generation Emitt Rhodes? Well, this is an exemplary singles albumâÂÂgimmicky, banal, full of filler, and filled out with a few more catchy little numbers to go with "Speak to the Sky". Recommended follow-ups: 'Hooky Jo' to keep on rock-rock-rocking, 'If I Didn't Mean to Love You' for a future in Vegas balladeering."
