This group of guys simply rock. Now 'Time's Up' didn't have a rock anthem as their first album, 'Vivid' did with 'Cult of Peronality,' but this album shows much more range of talent from the Big Apple rockers.Like other respondents, I could do without the spoken word interrupting the fine musical performances, but this is a major work by a great band....And it's a bonafide bargain to boot.There is a lot of great rocking here, and little filler. Sure it's a bit long in the tooth by age, but not by any other means.In case you haven't heard: Elvis is Dead.Shorter review: A dirt cheap rocker of an album by a group of fine musicians that'll make you a better person for having purchased it..Trust me.
