(4 out of 5 stars)

"Lost within The Halls Of Fame is an AMAZING album from the 90`s. Some re-releases of things from I Used To Be An Animal, but a lots of new things. I almost exploded first time I listened to it!1. I Used To be An Animal from the album named the same as the song. It`s really cool with Eric as a rapper. In the end (before he just talks) it`s a little noisy.2. When We Were a Gang is a rapidly moving song abuot how good things were When We Were A Gang3. This version of American Dreams is really good. A really good piece of rock.4. Rock & Roll shoes is a short song who slides over in5. Memories Of Anna. A really, really good song. 6. New Orleans Rap is a moody song about New Orleans. Not very long.7. I Will Be With You Again is one of the absolutely best songs on the album. It`s sad, but that doesn`t matter. It starts so nice and calm and builds up in to a wall of music. 8. Brand New Day is a little too noisy for me. One Of the albums weaker songs9. Nightrider isn`t very good either.10. This version of Going Back To Memphis is terrible. The albums worst song. The vocal is so weak that you almost can`t hear it.11. Leo`s Place has also a very weak vocal, but it is very much better than Going Back To Memphis.12. Woman`s Touch is good. Here Eric sings together with a woman (I don`t know who). Really good.13. Is There Another World is a quiet song with beautiful guitarplay. A little minus is that you can hear that Eric isn`t so young now, and I don`t think that any fan likes to be reminded of that...14. Don`t Shoot Me is a little too long. At least 1/3 of the song is the chours: "Don`t shoot me! I ain`t got no money. Don\ t shoot me! I`ll give you anything you wan`t I`ll give you anything you want, but don`t shoot me!""
