Aug. 20, 2025: Temporary Message Board Closure The company hosting the message board sprung a surprise price hike on me that would have more than tripled the monthly hosting costs, so I've been scrambling to find an alternative. I've purchased a license for self-hosting a different platform and am hiring a consultant to migrate the existing board's content (posts, user profiles, etc.). However, this means I need to shut down the message board for anywhere from 3 days to (hopefully less than) a week so the data can be migrated. While this is an expensive proposition up front, it should result in some long-term savings. The current message board will be closed down at some point this Saturday, August 23. I will post updates here. The main site (where you are reading this), will NOT be affected. -Dan

Excellent follow-up to IN ROCK. This one finds the band moving away from metal into more ecletic territory. Songs like "Fools", "The Mule", and especially "Anyone's Daughter" are simply impossible to forget.

Very under-rated. Not "classic rock", but very interesting. Anyone's Daughter shows a side to the band that I wish they'd explored further. I think at the time, they were more driven by commercially oriented management rather than musical integrity.

Good follow up to the monumental "In Rock". This album is somewhat overlooked due to where it is in the band's catalog. Contains the unheralded classics "Fireball" and "Strange Kind Of Woman" (on the re-issue). 8/10
