4.0 out of 5 stars It took 20 years to hear this!, May 8, 2000

Who can explain what goes through the mind of a record exec? As Burton's liner notes explain, this album was quashed for US release in 1980. What a shame, but this release is now our gain! Can anyone explain how a song as beautiful as Heavenly Blue could be ignored? Or the snappy horn solo-ed Fine State of Affairs? This follow up to Dream Of a Child just seems to grow on you with repeated plays...One and Only, another gorgeous ballad, has Cummings signature all over it, along with the album closer Wakin' Up Today. With a host of band and studio buddies, including Jeff Baxter on guitars, Lenny Castro on percussion and Jim Horn on sax, this collections fills a big gap for us US fans...It should never have been shelved...listen and see why!

4.0 out of 5 stars An artist with priciples?, November 24, 2000

You have to own this one. This is the recording that caused Burton to walk away from millions. Once you've heard it, you'll understand why he stuck to his "guns, guns, guns". It is lamentable though that this may have cost him being more of a recognizable solo artist outside of Canada. I feel he's as talented as his contemporaries (Billy Joel/Elton John), but perhaps his principles cost him that kind of recognition. At least if you're reading this, you're one of the folks who know how talented this man is. This is Burton's favorite solo recording, it'll be one of yours too.

5.0 out of 5 stars What happened to this one?, July 29, 2000

I have been a Guess Who fan since 1970, and bought all of the Burton Cummings albums that were available, including his self titled first, My Own Way to Rock, Dream of a Child, and Sweet Sweet. When Woman Love became available on the internet, I snatched it up. I was amazed and a bit upset that although the other material was great, this CD was superior. How in the world did this classic collection of BC music not make it to the public before this. Please release Plus Signs and Heart.
