"This album has a great backbeat reminiscent of many other early '80s groups like Donnie Iris. It is what I would describe as "club music" because it sounds exactly like a house band in a bar. An excellent house band, that is. "Hidin' From Love" and "Remember" are worth the cost alone in my opinion. This isn't a powerhouse LP, so don't expect the BA of '83 to blow your woofers and hold you spellbound, but for people like me who were 13 when this came out and are still not jaded, it is a decent recording. There's a compilation out there which is pretty hard to find that has material which even predates this LP - it's called "Sweeny Todd Presents Bryan Adams". It's a mishmash of mostly lame material, but if you're a die-hard fan you'll want to add it to your collction anyway."
