"This album got to be one of the best pop (or whatever you call it) albums of the eighties. It`s packed with great stuff from the upbeat "I can hear your heartbeat" through the mesmerizing and carefree "hey you" to the dark and melancholy "candles". I listened to that album many times in 83 and the years thereafter, and it helped me through a great crisis in my life, especially the wonderful and almost heartbreaking "candles" . Just listen to that intro, magnificent !!"
My favorite album...nuff said.

"Chris Rea has to be one of the best, virtually unknown (at least in N America), blues/rock musicians at present. Every song on this album is worth listening to, a true rarity these days."
Great CD!!
