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

Fantastic year for AOR in general lines...this album was part of this music movement that worked pretty well in mid 80's...compare it to other releases of the time it pales but nonetheless offered some pleasant tracks in the shape of "Radical Prodigal" that is by far the best cut of the record...tracks 4,5 & 7 also are goodie ones in here...75/100

Awesome album by former singer of Jack Mack And The Heart Attack, specifically heard on the 2 songs from the movie Police Academy, She's In My Corner and the Legendary I Wanna Be Somebody, excellent voice, killer album here.

AOR with some New Wave touches, not much though. The Circle is a pretty nice midtempo tune. A creepy tune with Tell Me With Your Sister's Hiding. Not bad musically wise, but could be better, a bit mediocre after all. Rating: 7/10. Favorite Track: The Circle.
