5 stars The majority of Saga fans would probably agree this is one of the worst albums they has ever released. I always heard this album was rushed to meet contract obligations and based on the quality I would have to assume this was indeed a matter of fact.

For me this is the 3rd worst Saga album, with Steel Umbrellas (The 'Cobra' TV Series Leftovers Album!) being 2nd and The Human Condition being the worst. The Pleasure And The Pain isn't all that bad if you're someone like me who likes a lot of different genres/styles of music. There is some good energy here!

My Pleasure: Heaven Can Wait, How Do You Feel, Welcome To The Zoo, Where's My Money, You're Not Alone '97, Gonna Give It To Ya, Fantastically Wrong

My Pain: Taxman, You Were Made For Me, Pleasure And The Pain

I did put Where's My Money in the Pleasure list, that was not a mistake! I do consider it a pleasure. The Pleasure outweighs the Pain for me personally with this album, I just wish they never would have covered Taxman, that is an awful song.
