30 Years and Still Going Strong

(5 out of 5 stars)
"Too often die hard fans of long-standing rock groups will give everything they do 5 Stars, saying "it's the greatest thing ever". Well, I've been a loyal fan of Saga since the very beginning, but my expectations are much higher than that. In their later years, Saga's releases have ranged from amazing ("Security of Illusion", "Full Circle") to mediocre ("Marathon", "House of Cards") to downright confusing ("Steel Umbrellas", "Pleasure and the Pain"). A couple of years ago, they released "Network", which offered a glimpse of the potential this amazing band still had.
Now hear this: "Trust" is outstanding. I've been listening to this CD constantly since I purchased it, and I am overwhelmed by how good it is. This just might be the best thing they've done since their "heyday" - it's that good. Pretty incredible considering how long the boys have been at it.
The CD is solid from start to finish, but "Back To The Shadows", "I'm OK" and "On The Other Side" are standouts. Check it out - you will not be disappointed."
