5.0 out of 5 stars My All Time Favorite!, April 30, 2004

Can't stop listening to it since it came out in the 80s from time to time. All the tunes and melodies are just so great! No one makes music like this anymore nowadays -- so musical and so vocal. The other reviewer is right -- if you like New Wave music like Pet Shop Boys, get this one. You won't be disappointed.

4.0 out of 5 stars Bring back JHJ!!, June 1, 2001

It's too bad this band wasn't around longer. Great vocals, instrumentals, and lyrics make this obscure band one of my favorite from the 80's. Original singer Clark Datchler sings most of the songs on this disc, including Shattered Dreams and I Don't Want to Be a Hero. But Phil Thornalley (ex-bassist from the Cure)filled in nicely on a couple of the other tracks here, like Turn the Tide and Let Me Change Your Mind Tonight.

4.0 out of 5 stars BEST THAT YOU CAN GET ....., August 8, 2002

IN the 80's there were some pop band that made it some who did not.This is one that did not but had great tunes like:don't let it end this way,i don't want to be a hero and other songs..
THE 80'S HAD A LOT TO GIVE US IN MUSIC MORE THAN 1960:(breathe,crew cutting and other's).BUT FOR THE MONEY THIS IS A GREAT BUY..
TAKE MY WORD FOR IT,
