This is Phil’s offering for 1985. It was not that well received by his biggest fans but I love it. Criticisms of the album were that it didn’t feature his guitar playing but instead was more of a pop album. This of course is the exact reason I love it. I’m more of a pop rock kind of guy and less of a guitar virtuoso kind of guy. It was a little heavy on the electronic drums but that doesn’t bother me. As usual for Keaggy many of the tracks had one too many verses making them unnecessarily long but this is part of who Keaggy is so I shouldn’t fault it. “Sounds” does a good job of highlighting his guitar skills so that track is there for the crowd that loves him for his guitar skills. The album includes the original version of “I Will Be There” which I think is a better version than the one that would show up on Crimson And Blue in 1993. The CD release for this album in 1998 included 2 bonus track that we have included in our upload.
