"Excess All Areas is a superb 80's AOR british rock album, this was probably Shy's finest hour, every track is a winner.and is a must if you like your rock with a touch of class. I have also found the best Shy website check it out www.shy-england.4t.com if you are into shy you will love this site."
Nothing "SHY" about this album

"Simply the best Shy album to date. Their latest album "Unfinished Buisness" is superb but this one still takes some beating. Still has lasted the test of time and is still the most played album by any band I like. Can't fight the nights is a cracker and they even manage to make Devil Woman ( a Cliff Richard song ) their own. As expected the ballads from shy over all their albums are first class. "Just love me" will have the air guitar out by the time the solo starts and and all too soon the album is over with "Telephone".. A cracking album which will certainly get it's money worth with the amount of times you play this over the years."
If you love 80s "hair bands", you will love this entire CD!

"This CD is filled with flashy guitar riffs and high range of singing that was so popular in the 80s--you know, the type of band that if you sang along with a song, your throat would hurt for days. Tons and tons of keyboards. A few very well written "power ballads". This CD is very old (I think I bought it around '85-'86...when I was 15), I thought it was a great tape then, and I still think it's a very good CD now."
SEARCHING FOR THEIR NEXT ALBUM

"This band later changed their name to Shy England and put out another album. I have the cassette, but would like another copy-preferably on CD. The album is titled "Mispent Youth". Songs include "Give It All You Got", "After the Love Is Gone". I've searched and searched, but have been unable to find the album. If I could rate that album, I would give it 5 stars. It has everything that the Shy album has, but much more developed. 80's hair band-definately, and they do it very well!!! High energy rockers, and very cool power ballads--everything that defined the 80's"
