This was quite a visionary album for 1985. While Tom was well known in 1985 Bill was more of a hired gun. He had tons of credits but up to this album not the proper recognition. Bringing these guys together was a great idea and this album works just perfect. Tom and Bill take turns on lead vocals and while I usually find this to be a bad thing, not this time it works perfectly. The album has an excellent flow and their vocals compliment each other. The album was mixed by Mark Heard at his studio and the mix is perfect, but we came to expect that of Mark. The album is a mix of easy listening and light rock but there is something here for everyone. It’s a great rounded album and it definitely deserves a listen.
