| Eliminator part 2 and nowhere near as good. Has some good songs, 'Sleeping Bag', 'Stages' and 'Rough Boy' is a good ballad. The problem arises when you play this back to back with 'Eliminator'. Now that you have done that i think you'll see what i mean.

| I actually like this one more than "Eliminator". If you thought the last album was 80's sounding, this one turns up the 80's factor even more with all the syntheisizers and electronic drums. Somehow, this works well with their sound, especially on "Velco Fly", "Planet Of The Women", "Stages", and "Rough Boy". 9/10

| Not as good as Eliminator. But how could it? Great record for partying.

| Great CD! At the beginning of the song "Sleeping Bag" it sounded a little like rap, thank God the rest of it wasn't! This album was much better than Eliminator. They used alot of different sounds in addition to their traditional southern"hill-billy"rock sound to perfect this masterpiece. No one can be compared to this great band. It's hard to believe that "Afterburner" is almost 20 years old. It still Rocks! A Perfect 10!

| These guys never disappoint, even on more commercial endeavors like this one. Hell, the girls were liking them now, so I don't blame them. They still didn't compromise, though.

| This album is like "Eliminator" part 2. Why mess with a good thing? Better than "Eliminator"? Maybe. Maybe not. But who cares? Another excellent album from a group that ruled the rock world in the mid 80's. (Along with the big-hair bands...lol)

| I Love this album is a Total Classic, se que hay muchos muchachos aca comentando y se tambien que pocos le toman importancia a ZZ Top, charlando con Tony Thunder(el mas experto en material escandinavo que existe) y Peterpoland sobre este disco concordamos que es lo mejor de ZZ Top y de lo mas grande en albums que existe, cuando llego a mis manos este cassete a finales de los 80 sabia lo que me esperaba "Rough Boy" era el tema abanderado un verdadero temazo AOR de pelicula

ZZ Top y este album fue uno de los que influencio en lo que ahora conozco sobre el mundo del AOR, es increible y yo que siempre critico a Big Papa K por su baja puntuacion ahora coincidimos totalmente, estuve esperando mas de 4 años para ver un comentario en español de este disco aca y nada, el Eliminator no fue la cumbre este lo es  Planet of Women, I Got the Message, Velcro Fly, Sleeping Bag, Delirious... que temas un Rock Sureño/AOR con Sintetizadores y Baterias Electronicas

| Y el otro corte que junto a Rough Boy convierten este en un Gran album no necesita mencion, el hispano que lo mencione se ganara un pase al paraiso, solo para conocedores.

| Este album lo tenía en LP de vinilo allá por el año 87 junto con el Eliminator, salió en edición nacional acá en el Perú, tiene unas canciones fabulosas desde ese Sleeping bag hasta la última Delirious, pasando por temazo tras temazo que esta demás decir que son excelentes, ahora que ya lo tengo en cd es una gozada escucharlo a todo volumen y sin esa "cancha" que se queda por tantas escuchadas, esa balada Rough boy Excelente y el temazo que se refiere el amigo Rafo Phoenix es Stages si o no?

| El lado suave de ZZ Top que a muchos nos gusto pero a que muchos tambien decepciono (no fue el caso mio).Apostaron por algunos temas de aor (como lo llegaron a hacer bandas como Molly Hatchet y Blackfoot) pero que de alguna manera la fanaticada y quizas el medio artistico no supo entender (en mi opinion personal,aceptar).De todas formas fue una etapa (los dorados años 80,cuando no!)donde muchas bandas se decantaron por el rock melodico/aor.Lastima que solo el intento fue en un solo album.80/100
