Strangers Waltz-How appropriately titled

"(...)Unlike most incarnations of veteran rock bands, this group does not even sport ONE original member! Gone are David Paton, who at one time was in Elton John's band, still does session bass work, as well as playing on select cuts with the Alan Parsons Project. Gone are drummer Stuart Tosh. The third member, Bill Lyall, succumbed to complications from AIDS several years back. Leaving a whole new lineup that does not even sound remotely like the original one, not musically or in content. Where as PILOT was good seventies pop, this is nothing more than 90's alternative. While it manages to be SOMEWHAT listenable (and I am NOT a fan of alternative) one should not think he/she is getting a 'long overdue' release from this band."
