| Bad Company's worst album. Electric land starts the CD off right but the album soon boggs down. The main problem is poorly written songs and not enough guitars. Best songs are Electric Land, Untie the knot and Painted Face.

| One of only two Bad Co. records that I think sucks... Stories Told is the other one. This is full of the horrific disco-pop-rock song-writing and production that plagued Kiss and Santana at the end of the 70's (mindyou, Kiss did better with it, and Santana were even crapper). Crappy sound and horrible pop melodies, I do remember one track being ok, but I haven't listened to this hideous record in so long that I forget which. Anyway, only get this to be a completist, it's total pants. 1/10

| One of the worst albums in the history of rock. This is what we meant by the term,"Sell-out".

| An album from which Bad Company never recovered. Their classic era with Paul Rodgers on vocals would soon be over after this release. Nothing here is even worth the mention really, though "Electric Land" did somehow make it onto their first "Greatest Hits" Package "10 From 6".

Yeah i agree with some of the comments above...this ain't the band we used to know with this release  ...i mean the album has its moments in tracks 1,2,6,7 & 9(the ones i liked)but this mix of Rock with some Funky elements here and there aren't the band's qualities at all...65/100
