Fun record but I recommend it for fans only.

"If you are a big Phil Lewis fan, a glam rock devotee, or a relative of one of the band members, buy this record. If not, listen to it first. It's a fun disc with Phil's songs as the high points and the other guy's songs as the low ones. If you like your rock n roll simple and pretty, you will probably enjoy this record. If you are looking for depth and complexity, check out Phil's "More Purple Than Black". If you are looking for record to kick you right in the trousers that is also in this genre, then check out LA Guns' early 90's stuff."

An o.k recording

"bought this disc thinking phil lewis provided the vocals on all tracks, to my disappointment he does not. phil lewis sings about half of the songs on the disc sharing the vocals with steve dior. the disc is an alright listen but for those LAG fans hoping to hear phil lewis on all the songs, beware. as for the music, ladbroke groove, which closes out the disc, has a LAG sound to it and is a definite highlight but also worth noting are: outta control, black cadillac and baby i want. steve dior does an ok job on his portion of the music but he's no phil lewis. if you looking for something different from phil lewis check out his solo album titled 'more purple than black'."
