This album indicates a dramatic change in "Titanic" music. From a very good heavy prog, the
band has turned into some bluesy, country oriented music ("Honky Vigrant"), even soul
("Ricochet") or basic American rock music ("The Cripple", "Following A line"). It is hard to believe that this band released such good albums so far. This has NOTHING to do with "Titanic". A weak blues-rock record, with one fine rock ballad (accordingly called " Ballad of a Rock 'n' Roll Loser") and that's it. There were some changes in personnel between "Eagle Rock" and "Ballad?". Gone are the great Hammond sounds and the participation of John Williamson (an English blues guitar player) certainly oriented the band in this direction (he co-wrote six songs here). This album doesn't hold any prog moment (nor even related) and was quite a disillusion. One star, no more. This was an enormous deception.
