I've got to say i'm a fan of all these guys albums and this is as good as any. Great vocals from Al Fritsch and along with Mark Mangold they write some superb AOR songs that will have fans of the genre drooling.

Too many songs but overall a very good effort...Not as good as their 2 first albums but take "Let It Ride" - Gotta love it!!

Despuès de dos discos discretos,Drive She Said sorprende a propios y extraños con una verdadera joya del AOR de una calidad poco frecuente.Desde la produccìon,impecable a todas luces, la banda no hace mas que derrochar buen gusto y calidad.Hay canciones increìbles como la balada Won't Keep Beggin',medios tiempos: Wherever You Go ò Forty-Second Street,donde aquellos ingredientes brillan por si mismos.Sin dudas un clàsico casi inadvertido del genero.10/10 . carro_martin2000@yahoo.com.ar

"Something at last" is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. Everyone that loves AOR should own this one. 9/10

Something of a let down when you consider this group released such gems as S/T and Drivin' Wheel. The opening 5 tracks do just enough to keep your attention but after that any use of the excelerator went unnoticed by me - seemed more like they were shifting down a couple of gears. Good, but disappointing considering their legacy. 6.5/10

Disco muy variado, las 2 primeras no llegan a ser buenas IMO, pero hay muy buenas canciones, esa "Won't Keep Beggin' (Come Away)" es maravillosa! y asi como esa estan "something at last" "wherever you go" "someone to run to" y "when hope is burning" y por ahi "inside you" mas rockera.. y las 3 ultimas mas en onda tranquila y con afluencia del piano a cargo de Mr. Mangold estan buenas tambien. 8.5/10

COMO SIEMPRE DRIVE SHE SAID, DE LO MEJOR EN EL AOR. Y NO SU PUEDE ESPERAR MENOS CON ESA MANCUERNA MANGOLD-FRITSCH. SOBRE EL DISCO ES EL MAS ELABORADO DE LA DISCOGRAFIA, MR. MANGOLD LE SACA PROVECHO CON ESA CATEDRA DE TOCAR EL PIANO Y EL TECLADO. HABLAR DE TODO EL DISCO ME LLEVARIA MUCHO. DESTACAN WHEREVER YOU GO, INSIDE YOU ESE TEMAZO WON'T KEEPIN BEGGIN, WHEN HOPE IS BURNIN. SI TE GUSTA EL AOR CON DERROCHE DE CALIDAD Y MAJESTUOSIDAD ESTE ES TU DISCO, LARGA VIDA EL HARD-AOR.

Third album and somehow not as solid as their 2 previous ones IMHO...still managed to catch my attention with some well known "best shots" of the band..."All I'm Living For","Wherever You Go"(marvellous!),"Inside You" & "Won't Keep Beggin'(Come Away)"...another interesting tracks are "In My Hands (The Healer)" wich is a pretty rocking song,"Let It Ride" that also rocks & "Someone To Run To"...many different points of view written above wich i entirely respect but being objective this album is not bad but neither as outstanding as their 2 first albums...get it anyway because is still worth having it...88/100

very fine release once again by DSS based in the keys-piano of Mark Mangold and the sensational vocs of Al Fritch!maybe thereare a few filers but the good moments are more and they really shine."inside you","all i m livin for","wherever you go" are excellent songs and def a keeper !
