this is one album from the 70's and 80's period that most folks have never heard of, but i still consider it a classic, "Raise a Little Hell" is probably the only song that some people would recognize, but it is not even the best song on the album. a must for fans of guitar oriented clear lyric type music of this wonderful era...

Trooper's 1978 album was there best album ever! With the hit's "Raise a little hell", "Round round we go", "Moment that it takes" & "Say goodnight" (not to mention "The Gambler", "Live from the moon",& "Drive me crazy"), Ra and Brian were at there peak songwriting. Without a doubt one of my Top 10 albums of all time (#4)and a soundtrack to my youth. ...

This is the only song that I know of by Gary Trooper, I didn't even know how to find it until I started playing around on the Internet!

I bought the vinyl in Canada roughly 19 years ago. Now it's time to purchase the CD...what a great collection of tracks.

Product arrived on time and in good condition as promised. I thought there would have been more catchy songs on the disc. Although I did buy it for one song. No complaints.

I own 5 Trooper albums and this is the best by far. Hot Shots is great, but this album just SHINES!!!!! Ra's vocals are so sharp, the band is so tight, not a bad song on the whole album. Wish they would tour here in Denver!!! Love to get a new album out by them. LONG LIVE TROOPER!!!!!!!!

I have heard of Trooper a couple years ago but I didn't really know too much about them and I'm so glad that I discovered this album at a record store and I decided to give these guys a try and I'm now glad that I did, Trooper sure has a wide diversity of music and I take that as a good thing, at times they sound like Foreigner, Rare Earth, Orleans, Eagles and the (early) Doobie Brothers, the best songs are No Fun Being Alone, Round Round We Go, Raise a Little Hell and One Good Reason, the rest of the album is solid and there isn't a bad song on here and that is something I don't say too often, I just wish that Trooper would've been as big in the states as they were in Canada and I think that all 70's classic rock fans should check out this album.

Trooper has alot of music but my favorite is "Raise a little hell." I started Disc jockey and radio in the late 80's. Troopers, "Raise a little hell" is a real crowd pleaser!
