4.0 out of 5 stars BACK WHERE THEY BELONG, April 7, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Resolution (Audio CD)

THE BOYS ARE BACK!! DON BARNES RETURNS AS LEAD SINGER AFTER AN ABSENCE FROM THE BAND'S LAST TWO STUDIO ALBUMS..AND THE RETURN OF HIS FORCEFULL VOICE HARKENS BACK TO CLASSIC .38 ALBUMS OF THE PAST. THE SOUND IS A LITTLE MELLOWER THAN IN THE PAST, ALMOST 'UNPLUGGED', BUT IT'S STILL GOOD OL' SOUTHERN ROCK AT IT'S BEST....

4.0 out of 5 stars Not Yet Fully Recovered, July 9, 2000

It has become much more greater than Bone Against Steel which I think is not live up to their reputation. Now that Don Barnes was back and with the support of Jim Peterik(formerly Survivor) they launched another tour de force. Overall impression is they turned back to where they started. 38 Special with southern rock flavor. It is not 80s primetime 38 Special but great rock nonetheless. Just Can't Leave You Alone sounds familiar to me because of Don Barnes vocal. Changed By Love and Shelter Me show excellent talent of songwriting pair Don Barnes and Jim Peterik. Particularly Shelter Me is one that you can never miss. Starting with R/B and gradually turned into dramatic rocker with enhancing chorus at the end. So this album shows 80 percent recopvery of one of the greatest rock bands of 80s. I just look forward to the next one.

Don Barnes returned to .38 Special for RESOLUTION, and the result was another great album. The band tried some new styles on a couple of songs, and added more acoustic guitars, plenty of mandolins, and some harmonica, and the result is sort of a cross between LONESOME JUBILEE-era Mellencamp and the Outlaws' first four albums. It may not be as pop-friendly as SPECIAL FORCES, but that's compensated for in the heartfelt lyrics of "Find My Way Back", a song of romantic regret that also expresses my feelings about turning down a trip that could have gotten me into better shape; "Changed By Love", which for me describes how my life has changed in the past couple of years; and "After The Fire Is Gone", a tale of love gone wrong which says in a few minutes why I place my fitness goals above the desire to go to my old school's Thanksgiving dinner. The closer, "Shatter The Silence", describes the horrors of child abuse, not just in the home but in some residential facilities as well. You should get this album if you can find it.
