| Classic release and their best one , although 'Up' is another goodie. This is the re-release (Millennium Edition) with bonus track 'Back In America' feat The great Terry Brock (Strangeways). 'No filler, just Killer' would be the appropriate well used phrase for this album. Probably Fergie Frederiksens finest hour along with the debut 'Trillion' cd and 'Toto's - Fahrenheit'.Not a bad track in sight and a classic of the genre

| From Melodicrock.com: A Le Roux re-union with none other than Fergie Frederiksen? It could be. After recording a planned new solo album, Fergie and the guys of Le Roux are in negotiations to write and record a new studio album for 2004 - which if and when they do it will be along the lines of "Last Safe Place" and "So Fired Up".

| I would like to say hello to the boyz of La Roux, I had a difficult time working with them under my circomstances and thought Fregie did a nice job dispite the fact he came into the band late on. Jim was a real good guy which made the trip from NY worth it. Leon was a real pro as were the other boyz -- Rod -- what a guy!! Wish things could have gone differently -- but my heart wasn't really there. Living in LA now but leaving to record in NY City on easter sunday -- my first time back east since

| I own five different versions of this album (two on vinyl, three on cd). That's how much i love it. Still the no. 1 highlight in my collection. AOR/pomprock of the superlative kind. 'A nice job' is the understatement of the century for Fergie's performance on this disc. I would very much welcome a new Le Roux album.

| This would have to be one of the all time great AOR albums ever. There are classic moments like 'Turning Point', 'Carries Gone', 'Lifeline'. The quieter moments too like 'Wait One Minute' and 'Let Me In' are spellbinding. Overall it's a consistent AOR experience for the listener.

BUEN ALBUM, CON UN FERGIE GRANDE PERO CON TOTO DEMOSTRO TODA SU CALIDAD.  Lifeline ES LA MEJOR CANCION DEL ALBUM Y POR SUPUESTO DEL GRUPO.

| I could probably compare it with the 87'Stan Bush and Barrage selftitled, wich(don't get me wrong)it's a lot tougher; but some albums just never die! This is a Timeless CLASSIC with NONE weak track on it; and Mr. ROB GARCIA is truly right saying that every home should have one

| Are you looking for another "Runaway" or "Separate Ways" then you should also check out this album especially "Turning Point" which is every bit as good as the Bon Jovi and Journey songs! It´s on my best of the best car hifi cdrs! excellent album throughout!

| Que tema el Lifeline y que buen video tambien, Inmenso Fergie uno de los mejores cantantes sin duda, un año despues con Toto sacaria uno de los mejores albums de AOR de todos los tiempos y el mejor de ellos. salud por ello.

| Mind-blowing!! If you like this release you´d probably like to try with Shelter, Prototype, Fortune or I-Ten, ´cause they all have similar soundings. The singer appeared in Toto´s "Isolation", what a pitty that finally he didn´t continue with that line... 10/10.

| Gran disco,de acuerdo con algunos,su estilo es de comienzos de los 80 parecido a bandas como Shelter(first stop)I-Ten,tiene temas excelentes caso de Lifeline, Let me in balada con grandes coros, Carrie´s gone otro temazo donde el teclado y guitarras se mezclan dándole ese aire de AOR clásico de los 80, en general buen disco con esa voz particular de Fergie Frederiksen.

| Grandioso disco sin dudas y la voz de Fergie ni que dudarlo en su mejor estado. "LET ME IN" simplemente me encanta y mi Súper-Favorita, "Carrie's Gone" mi 2º fav., la suave y fina "Wait One Minute" mi 3º fav., "Line on Love" "Turning Point"... Vaya calidad de temas, ninguna tiene desperdicio. Clásico. 9/10

| 2nd best Le Roux album after UP. Fergie was a great singer to but I still prefer the smoothness of Jeff Pollard. Some great songs on here - Wait One Minute, Yours tonight, Let Me In and Line On Love. Excellent album.

Pleasant album as stated above...nice songs and perhaps one of their best releases as a band  ...Fergie's doing great as usual and he gives these songs like some kind of pomp feel...like some Styx-ish style...opening track "Turning Point" is a rocker and the next one "Carrie's Gone" has catchy hooks,"Back In America" has somethin' to say,"Let Me In" follows the same catchy pattern as Carrie's Song and is one of the best tracks along with "Line On Love","Look Out" is another goodie to take count of...a nice one album 2 have...85/100

| Essential and classy AOR album from 1983 with the mighty Fergie "Turbo Voice" Frederiksen on vocals. Strong and well performed songs, keyboard heavy and hookladden with some Pomp elements, at times reminding of bands like Alliance - S/T (82), Dakota, Foreigner, Journey, Shelter-(First Stop) and Toto. A great product of it's time and a prime example of what the genre sounded like in the early/mid 80's. 9/10.

| This album remains in my all time top 5 of Powerful AOR albums It was a golden time..... the 80s for quality ...well produced albums of this nature. Frederiksen is superlative here.... voice soaring like an eagle . Guitars are sharp and cut thru.... keys are of equal importance as well..... the sound is pristine. I was so excited for a follow up.... disappointed it never happened...but was cheered that Fergie joined Toto....Isolation was their best album.... due to that voice! If you havent checked out the Leroux AOR live " album...please do as it contians 2 tracks with Fergie ... recorded back in the day... "Lifeline and "Line on Love" are there.... awesome.... always hoped there would be some new releases of Fergie live with the band...but no !
