"IF YOU ARE A BTO FAN , YOU HAVE TO GET THIS CD. I REMEMBER WHEN IT FIRST CAME OUT AS AN LP IN 1984 AND I LOVED IT THEN. EVENTHOUGH IT IS NOT THE ORIGINAL BTO LINE UP (GARRY PETERSON IS ON DRUMS AS OPPOSED TO ROBBIE BACHMAN) IT IS GREAT BTO ROCK AND ROLL. THE FOUNDER OF THE BAND, RANDY BACHMAN IS IN GREAT GUITAR FORM IN SONGS LIKE 'JUST LOOK AT ME NOW' AND 'CITY STILL GROWIN" AND HIS WORK IS VERY MUCH MISSED IN THE CURRENT LINE UP OF BTO, ESPECIALLY IN PRODUCTION. BUT THIS IMPORT IS A FINE EXAMPLE OF BTO AND THE GREAT VOCALS OF C.F. TURNER ARE OUTSTANDING. IF YOU ARE NEW TO BTO YOU MIGHT WAT TO CHECK OUT SOME OF THE CLASSIC CD'S FIRST, THEN MOVE ON TO THIS ONE. ITS IS GREAT BTO ROCK AND ROLL. ALSO, THE FIRST SINGLE RELEASED FROM THE ALBUM IN 1984 WAS "FOR THE WEEKEND" FOR WHICH A VIDEO WAS SHOT. I THINK ANY BTO FAN OLD OR NEW WILL ENJOY THIS ONE."

"...this is not the original BTO I but the 1984 comeback. Great guitar work by Randy on "City's Still Growin'." At this price, you'd be crazy not to pick this one up!"

True B.T.O fans this is a must have

"I was born in 1964,so growing up listening to B.T.O. was a natural.This CD features the same intensity and power that is B.T.O.. What really makes this CD stand out for me is that this CD is not so textured as their previous work. When you hear the opening track "For the weekend" you'll know exactly what I'm talking about. Every song on this album makes you want to find somebody to dance with.This 1984 album is truly one of their best,but if you own "Not Fragile" you will still like this CD better,or at least a close second.There isn't one bad song on this release.I hope you will enjoy it as much as I do."
