This record is the best album from one of the greatest classic hard rock bands ever. In the era before hair metal, AOR bands like Journey, Boston, and REO Speedwagon dominated mainstream hard rock. Punk was not the music of the day, this was. This record had everything. The band is top-notch. Steve Perry has yet to be out sung, and this remains a classic. If you listen to classic heavy/hard rock, this album should be a cornerstone of your collection.
