"If your a fan of melodic hard rock this is a must have; copies of this on vinyl are not very hard to find. The cd seems to go in and out of print every 6 months.why this band never took of is a mystery .they came out with only child 2 in 95 although not as good as the first it is still worth searching out.the guitarist and lead singer paul sabu has solo material out that are very much worth searching for(in the 80 kiddglove haertbreak). the 90s under the band name sabu (in dreams;between the light;and resurfaced."
One L of a record

"When this was first released back in '88, Kerrang broke with their tradition of awarding K's as marks out of 5, by giving this an 'L as in one 'L' of a record, and indeed it was. One of the best melodic rock / AOR records you're likely to hear this, or any other year. At the time where poodle haired rock was at the fore with Bon Jovi, Def Leppard et all ruling the globe, this was uncomprehensibly overlooked by the masses and the band eventually sunk without trace.To say this is criminal is an understatement. Led by Paul Sabu on vocals and guitar, this debut had killer tracks from start to finish, that both aforementioned bands would have killed for. From the uptempo stodge rock opener, Just Ask, through some of the finest AOR moments of the decade, namely the "lighter's in the air" ballads Always & Save A Place In Your Heart. Combined with hook's galore and enough widdly guitar solo's to keep the guys happy, this album should be filed under the heading " Every home should have one ". In one sentence, a hidden classic !"
