mark mangold, the big musician behind the band touch. superb AOR in foreigner's style, to pop rock, heavy rock. singer/guitarist al fritsch, the best newcomers of the past years. with his cross between joe lynn turner and lou gramm. excellent song material written by mark mangold. colourful, fresh keyboard n sharp guitar parts, heavy drums very tasty n beautiful. this great album is right choice for every AOR listener

Quizás prefiera su primer disco pues sus temas mantienen una misma dirección,cosa que no sucede en este donde hay muchos temas en onda Hard Rock bastante normalitos,pero amigo,cuando se ponen a componer lo que mejor se les da,o sea los temas en plan AOR demuestran que eran de lo mejorcito de esos años y sirvan como muestra que en este disco estan mis dos temas favoritos de ellos, como son Think Of Love y It's Gonna Take A Miracle.Aunque me sobren 3 o 4 temas lo que queda es de BUEN NIVEL.

Great album!! At least the 2nd greatest from D,SS - The debut will never be surpassed though...

To be honest, I do not really like this band... but as with the debut, there are some very nice AOR tracks here. 'Think of love' is a great AOR opener and an album highlight, and 'Hard to hold' is almost as good, and 'Veil of tears' is also a very fine peice of AOR. All three are great tracks. The rest? Well, unfortunately my finger likes the skip button when listening this this one. I'm sure AOR fans will enjoy.

DRIVIN WHEEL MANTIENE GRANDES MELODIAS EN EL AOR MAS PURO, YA QUE MUCHAS DE LAS CANCIONES DE ESTE SEGUNDO TRABAJO DEBIERON APARECER EN SU JOYA AQUEL 1 TRABAJO, THINK OF LOVE ES UNA DE ELLAS GRANDIOSA,DRIVIN WHEEL UN POCO MAS HARD, HARD TO HOLD ES HERMOSA Y COMO NO SI TIENE LA MANO DEL GRAN ALDO NOVA,WHEN YOU LOVE SOMEONE ES GENIAL CON APOYO DE VOCALES DEL BENNY MARDONES, VEIL OF TEARS EN SU PLAN HARD-AOR,IT'S GONNA TAKE A MIRACLE OTRA DE LAS QUE IBAN AL PRIMERO, JUST FOR THE MOMENT HIMNO AL AOR.

Sin duda los Amos de los MidTempos y baladas en plan AOR con alta finura y un cantante de aquellos ehh Al Fritsch es de mis favoritos en esos cortes como "Hard to Hold"(Mi Favorita y me recordó a Tony Martin en los Black Sabbath!!) "Just For the Moment"(Que voz Dios!!) "Think of Love" "When You Love Someone" o "It's Gonna Take a Miracle"(Teclados a lo Journey) las mejores en ese orden. De las HardRockeras me quedo con "Veil of Tears". Su 2º mejor disco?.. claro que sí. 8.8/10

Their follow up to their very acclaimed debut album...5 out of the 10 tracks in here are among their best stuff ever recorded ("Think Of Love","Drivin' Wheel","Hard To Hold","It's Gonna Take A Miracle" & "Just For The Moment")apart from that another goodie ones such as "Can't Get Enough" which the band made a killer cover of the Bad Company's anthem,"Veil Of Tears" & "Do You Believe"(this one is a monster track IMHO)..anyway Mark Mangold & Al Fritsch delivering once again those amazing melodies...what a pair undoubtebly!!!...excellent stuff,get it!.95/100

SUPER MASTER PIECE!

This is not that good. Mr. Fritsch tries way to hard for my taste. Pretty average compared to the self titled release.
