3.0 out of 5 stars
Good leftovers!, August 28, 2008
This is a nice collection of demos & left off tracks from one of the bands that should've been a household name in the 80s rock scene. While I'm a fan of their first 2 releases, and not so much their third effort, this cd shows you pieces of each phase of their career. Quality is remarkably good on most of the tracks. Only two songs really sound like demos. The rest must have been produced by a pro, mixed down, and just missed the cut for the album.
Stand-outs for me include the more rockin' songs (Break It Down, Don't blow Your Chances, Hot Women, Knock Em Dead, Nightmare), but "Keep On Believing" should have made it's way onto an album too.
The mellower, synth driven songs don't do anything for me, but I know the record company was behind the push for that stuff.
Wish these guys would've gotten the chance they deserved to shine. What could've been...
At least we have this gem, and Pettology to remember how great they were.
