This is the best Blackfootalbum indeed. No Southern Rock, but great AOR/Hardrock "Send me an Angel" has a killer intro with this church pipe-organ. "Crossfire" is brillant too, not to forget the incredible "teenage idol" ok the rest is average but these three tracks kick ass!!

After the superb 'Marauder' album, Blackfoot bring in Ken Hensley on Keys and produce another excellent album, albeit a change in sound. There are some blistering Suvvvvern moments on this disc (some of Rickie's guitar playing is awesome) check out 'We're Goin Down' or 'White Mans Land' mixed in with some very commercial rock tracks 'Goin In Circles' (a definate Rainbow/Russ Ballard rip off). The rest is very good with special mention going to 'Send her an angel'probably the best track on here.

Southern Rock at it's best. An absolute classic. 10/10

From: Rockhead	Date: November 3, 2004 at 8:33
Don't you mean Southern AOR? Molly Hatchet-Flirtin', Skynyrds- 2 From THe Road and Indeed Blackfoot's Marauder and Tomcattin are far more Southern. Siogo is good but not that good!!

I mean this album sounds great whatever it is. Southern , northern, eastern or western....

Just ordered this one from Amazon based on the praise I have seen and my love for the few Blackfoot releases I DO have :-) Gotta love the guitars and Ricky's vocals

WOW! Got it in mail yesterday and been cranking it this morning! What an album! My favorite from Blackfoot as of today. What a great record, this should have made Blackfoot a household name. I have never heard Medlocke rock harder than he does on this slab. The Southern sound is not as prominent here, but it's definitely heavy azz Blackfoot!!

The beginning of the end. Another fine Southern rock band trying to be turned into another Journey-clone by numbskull record company executives. Blackfoot still had enough power to put out a solid effort here but the current raing is 9.3 where I would rate it around 7.0 . I really liked "Crossfire", "...Angel" and "...Idol" also, as well as the Nazareth cover "Hearts Grown Cold" , BTW shouldn't that have a cover designation?

I agree with METAL PETE. This is an increible great album of pure hard aor/melodic hard rock the way we all love it. My fave songs are SEND ME AN ANGEL, CROSSFIRE and TEENAGE IDOL. This is a buy or die release.

From: Figge	Date: October 25, 2006 at 14:08
Excellent stuff on offer here. The best Blackfoot album featuring some real highlights like the awesome "Send Me An Angel" and "Teenage Idol". An album full of magical melodic rock...a favourite of mine with huge nostalgic value.

GRAN DISCO DE HARD AOR SUREŅO LLENO DE BUENOS TEMAS Y BUEN TRABAJO DE KEN HENSLEY, NO TIENE DESPERDICIO A "MUST HAVE", EL VIDEO DE TEENAGE IDOL ES DIVERTIDO

From: rbrigade	Date: February 10, 2009 at 7:27
Great! Send me an angel and Teenage Idol are hard 'n' heavy masterpieces. Crossfire and Sail away great melodic hard rock tracks. Some AOR tracks sound nice too. Personally I also love White man's land, one of the few southern/hard rock tracks of th album. Get it by all means!

From: 123charpenay	Date: May 2, 2009 at 16:36

Hello 123chapernay!!!(i suppose that "rick" is me )...well i've just undusted my old vinyl,gave it another listen and now i'm ready 2 write a comment about it...well this one's like sort of a "pre-warming" to what next release "Vertical Smiles" was all about...Melodic Hard Rock with an AOR feel and leaving the Southern Rock aside a bit..."Send Me An Angel" is by far the best cut of the album but another goodie ones are "Teenage Idol","Goin' In Circles","Run For Cover" & "Sail Away"...Blackfoot did at that stage like some other counterparts like Molly Hatchet & 38 Special did,turning into a wonderful mix of Southern Rock and AOR that gave its fine results back in the day...recommended album...86/100

From: 123charpenay	Date: February 16, 2012 at 13:47
yes rick it s you my friend from venezuela.i have this record in new zealand import with 6 bonus tracks 5 live and one interview of ricky medlocke.!!!!very rare cd s.

From: elljam	Date: May 12, 2012 at 6:01
I remember this album getting some flack on it's release due to it's more AOR nature & the addition of keyboards. However there are some strong songs here with send "Send me an angel, "Crossfire", "Teenage idol" & "We're goin' down" hitting the spot. I still prefer "Tomcattin'" & "Marauder" but would not put any fan off buying this.

excellent release once again for BLACKFOOT this time adding some keys with Ken Hensley and somehow a slightly more commercial edge!of course 2 classics like "send me an angel" and "teenage idol" but the rest is great as well with songs like "goin in circles",'white man s land" and "we re goin down"!great stuff from a great act

From: 123charpenay	Date: May 18, 2021 at 17:13
