MYSTERY

I bought this album when it first came out and still enjoy it. Having fallen in love with Renaissance, their best album, it was eagerly anticipated. Tried to see them when they toured that year with Uriah Heep but ended up at a Kris Kristoferson concert (long story). Hot Blood's a dud but the other songs are powerful. I was surprised by the shift in styles from their earlier period. Don't miss "The Return" (2002) especially their cover of the Backstreet Boys "Tearin' Up My Heart". I told them at their show that they were the only band in the world who could make the a Backstreet Boys song sound good.
