TC Record Review- "This is a guitar band that rocks with the attitude of early Sammy Hagar. The track "Just Gotta Go" deserves regular rotation on any station. If you only have time for one song, skip to this cut immediately. I guarantee you will play this song again."City Limits- "All the natural ingredients for hook & line are apparent. The opening off the wall guitar arpeggio takes you by surprise with curiosity of what lies ahead. A very solid release indeed."The Note- "Vocal, guitar driven & overall very mid-western stylistically with elements of Queensryche, Warrant & even the same things that made Reo Speedwagon a household name." Go to www.retrospectrecords.com today , listen to sound clips , and be one of the first to own a copy of this melodic hard rock treasure! Sam McCaslin CEO/President Retrospect Records

Excellent reissue of album/ep originally released in 1990 on cassette only. This reissue includes 4 unreleased bonus tracks and a good remastering. Melodic hard rock in the vein of early Black N Blue.
