"If you know Cliff and like him, But have never heard this album, Your missing one of the better one's. Originally released in 1980, This is now been re-released after many years. Actually, I've never seen it on CD in the U.S. I have tried to get this CD on auction sites and seen it go for [price] or more. Even in Britian where Cliff is much more popular than here, It's still been an all time fan's favorite. I'm not going to list and praise all the songs here for you, they are all great. If you are a fan of Cliff's buy it! No more need's to be said. It may not be around again for a long time. I myself have waited over 15 years to get it on CD."
Cliff at his best!

"I've never heard a better album by Cliff than this one. A few years ago I started looking for it on CD, but was told it was out of print, and felt very disappointed. So when I saw that it has been re-released, I just had to have it. Please get this one--it's a classic!"
HEROIC EFFORT

"Sir Cliff Richard originally release this album the dawn of the 80's, and it was one of his four big comeback albums, the others being "I'm Nearly Famous" (my favorite), "Rock and Roll Juvenile," and "Wired for Sound." Cliff should have had a much better reception on this side of the Atlantic, but having these classics FINALLY on CD is great news for followers of this one of a kind vocalist. This is more up-tempo than some of the others, but producer Alan Tarney capitalized on catchy hooks, good beats and great songs! A Great addition to fans of the 70s and 80s."

"A terrific pop album. Even the title, "I'm No Hero" is catchy. There is no better pop album for the 1980 era. EMI Records and all concerned are to be heartily approbated for finally coming to terms and releasing this fine album. This CD will knock you out! Not necessarily with the knock-kneed Sir Richard on the cover but with the music. What a voice! Crystal clear vocals yet how this Knight rocks! 45min and 23 seconds of sheer unadulterated pleasure will consume you with the times. This CD features two cuts I have never heard before--and they are D-Y-N-A-M-I-T-E!!! (one is so 'aptly' named). Have fun! A must have!"
