Killer hard rock!!!!

This has really surprised me. I loved "Prism" but never really warmed to Talisman that much (even the first 2 albums never blew me away), so was not really expecting this to be that great when I heard it was a hard rock affair. But it's awesome. "Believe In Me" is the most commercial track, but "High Time" and "Find Our Way" run it close, and the ballads are sensational. Awesome vocals, some top class guitar work, and only "On My Own" and the bonus track let the quality drop a little. 9.5/10.

This fantastic album will have the jaws of melodic hard rock fans everywhere dropping to the floor. Superb in every department, from the excellent production to the outstanding vocals to the red-hot guitars to the killer hooks to the supersonic choruses to the cool harmonies. Soto sings his lungs out on this one and fans of his vocal skills will kneel & thank him for his contribution to the genre. "Prism" was good, but "Lost..." is great. This one needs to be in your collection...

From: BOB	Date: October 7, 2004 at 10:12
Yes, this once Is great and even better than "Prism" and Jeff has found another right-hand In Howie Simon who's done a great job on this one. How does Jeff found the time to do vocals here and there and still make a solid solo album?...his just great and killer singer.

THIS MAN IS THE BIGGEST SHOWMAN, FRONTMAN AND SINGER IN THIS WORLD. I SAW JSS YESTERDAY IN THE FIRST EUROPEAN SHOW: VALENCIA-SPAIN. WHAT A SHOW!!! TWO HOURS OF THE FINEST MUSIC OF HIS CAREER. IT WAS GREAT TO SEE THIS BAND ALIVE AND KICKIN', THEY HAD A GOOD TIME PLAYIN'AND THE CROWD TOO. AFTER THE SHOW THE BAND MEET THE FANS: A DREAM COME TRUE. IF YOU CAN...GO TO THEIR SHOW. BY THE WAY, THIS CD IS THE GREATEST CD IN MANY YEARS... ITS SOUND LIKE 80s AND FRESH.

I agree w/ all the comments above, LITT really is a masterpiece, a hard rock heaven, great vocals, great instumental, great songs, far better than Prism. And to RafaMC, make your worlds mine, mate. JSS played Oct 1st here in Brazil, and it was a smash, a real kick in the ass, and Richie Kotzen was the opening act and did great too, w/ Pat Torpey on drums, a real hard rock party. Back to LITT, I agree w/ TIM(2), FIND YOUR WAY is a monster, and the ballads are amazing, Jeff is the king, absolutely

From: meradona	Date: October 16, 2004 at 6:35
Lo ha vuelto a demostrar, es el mejor vocalista de hard rock de todos los tiempos, vaya album es impresionante vaya temas (sobre todo los 3 primeros) y vaya conciertos que hace, es el mejor, si buscais algun disco de 10, este es el mas recomendado. JEFF SCOTT SOTO IS THE VOICE OF ROCK. COMPRATELO YA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From: RafaMC

ESTE TIO ES EL MEJOR CANTANTE DEL MUNDO DEL ROCK ACTUIAL, MENUDO ESPECTACULO EN VALENCIA EN SU PRIMER CONCIERTO DE GIRA. ES UN CACHONDO Y UN PROFESIONAL. SI TENEIS OPORTUNIDAD DE VERLO NO OS LO PERDAIS, ES LO MEJOR QUE HE VISTO EN DIRECTO Y EL REPERTORIO ES PARA VOLVERSE LOCO. SOBRE EL DISCO LITT POCO QUE AÑADIR A..COMPRATELO YA,ES UN CLASICO, COJONUDO; Y EL PROXIMO "SOUL SIRKUS" VA A SER LA BOMBA, CON NEAL SCHON. ESTO SI QUE ES ROCK Y NO LA REUNION DE EUROPE. 10/10. SALU2 DBOER.

From: meradona	Date: October 24, 2004 at 4:42
para rafa mc: estoy contigo, jeff es el mejor hoy en dia, estoy esperando por soul sirkus desesperado, este es un disco para no perderselo vaya temazos, neal schon ya lo conocemos y sabemos de lo que es capaz , pero atencion a howie simon en directo que se sale, creo que para mi ya es un guitar hero.

From: Rene	Date: November 1, 2004 at 8:52
No, its not bad. His voice is good like always but the songs are not very strong. I think songs from YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, KUNI, PANTHER, or AXEL RUDI PELL singing JSS are far better. His voice is great but the songs are not good in my opinion. SAD BUT TRUE.

20 de 10. Increible, quiero a este hombre. Incredible, I love this man.

This is reall good, I always loved his voice, but the songs on here are excellent as well. Very catchy, IMHO bridging the gap between AOR and Hard Rock. Classy, well executed hooks, harmonies not overdone, I have trouble finding fault with it. 9/10

From: Slikk Vicc	Date: December 8, 2004 at 10:44
The album he has always threatened to make....almost perfect!

From: Wotty	Date: December 8, 2004 at 10:56
A few people advised that I should get this.I'm glad I did......

Can't keep this one out of my cd player. This is such a good release. JSS provided the goods on this one. Strong vocals (as always) and the music is some of the best he has ever done.I consider this a modern Eyes album that has been much more produced than the plug in and play self titled Eyes album. Not a bad song on this album. Standouts include: Believe in me,Find our Way,Soul Divine,Title cut and Drowning but all are good. I cannot recommend this album enough. You will not be disappointed.

From: howe	Date: December 16, 2004 at 8:48
Nothing new about this one. Just another 80's Hard Rock album. I like "If this is the end" though...

From: Dave Stamos

Date: December 16, 2004 at 12:57

Gran trabajo de JSS..uno de los mejores del año!! "Soul divine", "Drowning", "If this is the end"...incluso el bonus track es todo un temazo. Hardrock contudente con una guitarra solista de alucine (Ese Howie Simon!!) y una voz muy buena. Lo vi en Asturias hace unos meses y estoy de acuerdo con el resto es un tipo genial con un buen directo y una voz portentosa. Creo que es un mejor disco que Soul Sirkus la verdad qme esperaba mas de mi adorado Neal Schon... Jeff Scott Soto sin duda una de las v

From: Kip	Date: December 18, 2004 at 7:03
Beginning 2 End is an awesome ballad. The rest of the album didn't hit me so hard, but I really love that one song.

From: Geoff

Date: December 20, 2004 at 3:43

I must disagree with the last 2 English reviews. I have always been a passing fan of JSS. I love the Eyes debut, but perhaps a bit of overkill and averageness with dozens of projects. Still, a wonderful voice and he blew me away with this one. Voice is superb as always, but musically this is an excellent album too. No fillers this time, which is unbelievable to me. 'Believe in me' is sensational, as is 'If this is the end'... and the rest. Killer songs, killer musicianship and JSS at his best.

Love JSS in all his incarnations. Gods 2002 was awesome gig and first time I'd seen him live. Thought 'Prism' was excellent overall but at the risk of incurring wrath from almost everywhere this album, 'Cats And Dogs' and Soul SirkUS all leave me cold. I really really want to like them especially as I've shelled out for all of them based on nothing but reviews!!! but all are average. Gutted. Sorry Jeff, get together with Michael Voss and write out "Quality NOT quantity" 1000 times each!!!!

From: Swriter	Date: February 13, 2005 at 21:09
this is classic hard rock with a melodic element. Great voice, great guitars, great songs, one of the best from 04, way better then the Soul Sirkus release, hopefully, Jeff and Neal will colaborate again soon, this one is a must have and best hard rock release of 04!!!

From: meradona	Date: March 12, 2005 at 19:03
el disco del año, el mejor disco del 2004 con muchisima diferencia, por favor rafo comenta este disco si no lo has escuchado pidemelo, es impresionante, para mi gusto jeff scott soto es el mejor vocalista de cuantos he escuchado, y tengo mas de 2000 cds de hard rock y aor, para mi el mejor.

From: Rafo Phoenix	Date: March 14, 2005 at 20:17
meradona amigo, me puedes decir a que grupos suena este disco de jeff, pucha si hablamos de cantantes de hard rock o heavy metal, mmm mi favorito siempre a sido Glenn Hughes, no creo que haya un cantante con ese tipo de voz, hecho para el AOR, Hard o Heavy Metal, es mi punto de vista personal. habra que escuchar este disco para sacar conclusiones. saludos amigo.

From: Lennie	Date: March 17, 2005 at 7:14
How can anyone slag this album - it is great from beginning to end and far better than anything he ever recorded with Talisman! Great hooks, big choruses, and fantastic solos from Howie Simon & of course JSS's killer vocals - what more could you want! 9.5/10 - being a massive Journey fan I never thought I'd hear myself say this, but was Neal Schon's input really required on this album??!

From: meradona	Date: June 4, 2005 at 8:01
rafo, te pido que escuches este disco te encontraras con un vocalista unico en este estilo con muchisimo feeling y con una calidad impresionante, y a la vez un guitarrista que para mi es un nuevo guitar hero howie simon, un 10 de 10 (claro que jeff scott soto es la voz del hard rock)

From: meradona	Date: June 4, 2005 at 8:52
rafo escuchalo, si no lo tienes pidemelo, es el mejor disco del 2004, el mejor vocalista de hard rock y un guitar hero ( howie simon) un disco imprescindible, claro que es hard rock no aor, pero bueno un discazo. un saludo a rafo que es un amigo.

From: stryper	Date: July 7, 2005 at 5:27
this guy just gets better and better.much harder edged than his last outing.but still melodic.keep it up mate.

From: SangreAzulForever	Date: September 22, 2005 at 18:55
No more comments so far... 9/10

From: jmikep	Date: June 30, 2006 at 10:53
"Believe in Me" has got to be one of the best rock songs to be released in the last 10 years. The rest of the album ain't bad either.

From: juan carlos

Date: August 7, 2007 at 14:50

A un pelín de ser un clásico para mí. Gran voz nada que discutir, gran producción, muy buenas canciones. "Believe in Me" es mi favorita y con el maestro Neal Schon que se mete ese gran solo con su sello Vaya Súper-Temazo y Solaso. "If This Is the End" hermosísima balada ya un clásico en el repertorio de JSS. Gran disco impedible para todo Fan de la voz de Mr. Soto y del Melodic rock en general. 8.9/10

From: rick kerch vzla	Date: March 9, 2011 at 20:39
