2 stars Like its predecessor, COUNTERPOINTS begins promisingly with the rousing "On My Feet Again" leading into an intense instrumental fusion workout: "I Can't Remember, But Yes". But again, it runs out of steam quickly. I can't say there's a single worthy number on the B-side, and listening to their pathetic attempt to rock out on "Rock & Roll Show" and more soppy lounge-vocalist muck in "Road Back Home" makes you mourn the loss of Russ Ballard's songcraft that much more. The fusion-oriented "Time" and "It's Worn Off" improve matters a bit, but only a bit.
