"Jim Peterik is the former "Survivor" musician that was a main writer of their successful music in the 80's. This CD is no exception. He continues with the AOR style of rock anthems & power ballads which are very well written. The musicians on this CD match his style perfectly. If you are a fan of Survivor, Pride Of Lions, Mecca or Journey then you will love this CD."

"As the songs have been discussed in other reviews and I agree with most of them I'll be brief.

With 40+ years of writing, performing, producing and entertaining the world stage, Jim P. proves his vast abilities and explores the deep riches of his talent on this album.

There is a plethora of meaningful lyrics, abundant hooks, and the execution that only a master of his field could produce. To say he wrote the book on songwriting would be an accurate statement as, well, HE DID. ("Songwriting For Dummies")

Any fans of beautifully constructed, thoughtful and meticulously crafted songs will be giddy with the selections on "Above The Storm". Kudos to Larry Millas and the array of talent assembled for this project.

Please Jim, keep pouring out your soul to your devoted fans and long live The Ides of March.

RC McWilliams"

"Above the storm is truly a masterpiece.

Some Days I can't get the song Live Life out of my head. Burning with a reason is a little funky with an great rock guitar one of my favoriates on the CD.

Above the storm is a great tendar ballad.

In the days we have has such a powerful message. I get the sense Jim is a bit of a spiritual person on this record. I for one welcome that. I love the female vocal & that song.

Stand & be counted is in the same vein as days it is a great powerful pop rock song.

At this moment of Night is a good pop song with a bit of a duet a tice touch. It is even a little funky pretty cool.

A Kiss to Remember is another ballad that makes me think each time I say goodbye to my wife before heading out.

The God in You is another nice pop song.

Secrets of a woman is a neat change of pace and a knod to the Ides of March side with the horns. That song has grown on me lately.

A talent for Loving you anothr nice balad.

Hiding from Yourself is something I could expect on a Survivor record. Great rock heavy guitar with melody my favoriate on the CD.

Midnight in my Soul is a great closer very powerful with that Survivor feel.



NOT A BAD SONG ON THIS CD>



This CD is like a roller coaster in a good way you rock dance funk slow down rock pray a little pop slow & finally rock. All in all a fun ride can't wait to get in line to ride again. I'm waiting on the 2 Pride of Lions Cds now.



I hope it gets released in the US so it can be enjoyed by more people. That may take the record co pinheads to decide to stop feeding us processed stuff."
