'80s Heart...

"I love Heart.

I have loved Heart since Magic Man hit the Radio and I saw then on that first headline tour. This is not that Heart, it is '80s Heart, which was still my favorite from the era at the time, but for me this is my least favorite incarnation.



Recently however, I have repurchased my favorite era of studio albums and got the CDs again of everything up to and including "PassionWorks" and also the "LoveMonger era", I have debated geting the '80's CDs but they lack the emotional hold on me as the other albums. I compromised by geting this CD, which does have the singles that defined their "Singles" & MTV era. IT is a very good set of "Power Ballads", one old school style rock song "Black on Black II" as well as "Back to Avalon" and "The Road Home" from the accoustic era.



So here's the deal,

This is a great CD for those who are '80s Heart fans, and those like me who want something to represent that era of their work but aren't crazy enough about it to go replace their lost albums."
