Easily Tommy Shaw's best album from the 1980s. Someone was wise for Tommy to hook up with an outsider as a songwriter as I believe Terry Thomas brought a new direction in Tommy's songs. Main criticism is that there is a lack of variability in the album - many slow songs. Still the harder sound, the chin job and the longer hair was a sign of what was to come - Damn Yankees. Favs are No Such Thing, A Dangerous Game, Somewhere In The Night and Lay Them Down.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
