| Very high quality solo release from the ex-Fisc vocalist, which sees a change in direction from Euro-Metal to poppy AOR. "Drivin' Through the Rain" is the same track "Driving Through America" on Steve Thompson's album, and is probably the highlight, but there's barely a filler track on here. I'm not a big fan of the ballads, and there are too many, but if you love smooth AOR with plenty of keys this is worth tracking down. Great vocals too. 8.5/10.

| En este album el amigo Jaimito continua con un AOR de muy agradable escucha tal y como ya nos ofreció en su disco del 89' "Rythmn Of Life",en esta ocasión quizas no suene tan 80 pero sigue siendo extremadamente melódico a pesar de ser editado en un año (me consta q es de 1994) que estuvo bastante reñido con la melodia.Asi pues si os gustan los discos de Jimmy Harnen,Fahrenheit,Stan Bush(90's) y similares es mas que probable que os guste este.BUEN AOR.

| I bought this after a review in an old AOR magazine over here in the U.K. called Frontiers. It's a pretty cool CD and as Tim(2) points out Drivin' Through the Pouring Rain is probably the best track on the release but the title track runs it a close second. I find after a while though the songs start sounding a little samey BUT they are all good songs! Don't know what he did after this but I have seen a CD single called Angels doing the rounds. Not sure if it is off a second album or not.

| Hey Nick C, I used to work for FRONTIERS magazine so it was probably my review you saw first-time around too!

| Great mag...I've still got all the copies printed from when when it was a kind of a2 size then it went up to A4 didn't it. I used to subscribe to it! Was always great getting it thru the post. I'll have to dig it out and reread the review. I think you said something like had the CD been released in the mid 80's then it would have been played all over the radio. Loved the mag...I grab Fireworks now since it's demise...besides if I didn't buy it Bruce would duff me over!

| Yeah, had a good time working on the mag. Got to do some good interviews too (including the first one with the 'new' Marcie Free). You'll see my name (Tim Robertson) reviewing most of the softer side of AOR, and I used to get tons of free CDs! Fireworks is great, but a bit more diverse, as it has to be these days...

| Very Good of course, despues de los comentarios de los grandes expertos de arriba no hay mucho por decir, el Rythmn Of Life es una pasada con Fisc Jimmy dejo buenos trabajos tambien como el Too hot for love, en fin este disco gustara sin duda y la puntuacion de Tim(2) es precisa.
