3 stars There are some guitar influences from GENESIS here, it begins already in track 1, "Change For Less". While listening, you're waiting for the keyboard to enter, but it's not! Still it's a compact sound throughout the track. 2nd track is more popish, nothing more. Acoustic guitar, good vocal, but rather a dull track on 3rd. Track 4 is more interesting, here they sounds more progressive occasionally ( in the mid section). The drummer certainly does his part here and carries the track to the end. The title track sounds a bit BILLY JOEL in the beginning but the tune has more to offer, but never really takes off. The next one is one of the best, but it is prog? "Take A Look" is very 80's and simple, yet the chorus carries you to the end. Number 8 must be the favourite on this album, the speed is increasing and the guitarist can show off what he is capable to do. "Sarah Lynn", no comments. Last track is to long, will it never stop? Throughout the album the vocal is very clear and gentle but still strong enough. From time to time it remind me of FREDDY MERCURY and BONO.
