A frequent group on the Uncut CDs this latest album offers us some quite impressive 70s inspired classic rock with plentiful guitar pyrotechnics put to good effect in the longer songs and good vocal melodies. A very good album that does everything right and will no doubt appeal to most classic rock fans and although I enjoy it quit a bit, there is just something missing to push it into the must have album stakes and I do find it difficult to stay connected with it throughout its 60 minutes.Rating 3.5/5.
