5.0 out of 5 stars Bonnie and Jim a perfect match, January 31, 2008

As a lifelong Jim Steinman fan, the teaming of gravel-voiced Tyler was a match made in heaven (or is that Hell?). Their first effort, 'Faster Than The Speed Of Night' produced the classic, 'Total Eclipse Of The Heart', and this album is in the same vein. Steinman's Wagner-at-the-piano mini rock operas are the winners here - especially the stand out track, 'Loving You's A Dirty Job', where she duets with the golden-voiced Steinman collaborator Rory Dodd, but other highlights include the oft-covered 'Band Of Gold' which gets the ballsy Bonnie treament. 'Holding Out For A Hero', perhaps the best-known track is from the Footloose Soundtrack. There is talk of a new Steinman/Tyler album, so cross your fingers, and until then grab this, if only for the Janet Jackson/Rhythm Nation cover shot.

This is one of the best albums I've ever bought. I orignally bought the album in 1988, and it didn't left my cars casetteplayer for months. It was also one of the fist albums I had to have on cd. And now its on my MP3, and still one of my top 10.
Just listen to "Loving you's a dirty job", "Holding out for a hero", "Ravishing" and Freda Pynes "Band of gold", and you'll be hooked, for sure.
Please Bonnie, team up with Jim Steinman again, and do the magic ones again.
