Title: Not a _bad_ album, but one of BOC's weaker efforts
Review: While every BOC fan should, naturally, have _every_ BOC album, I have to take issue with the previous reviewer's statement that "Mirrors" is "a great album". Musically, it represents a misguided attempt to repackage BOC as a guitar-pop group along the lines of Cheap Trick (whose producer at the time, Tom Werman, was borrowed for this album -- his only work with BOC). Many BOC fans dislike this album so intensely that they prefer to call it "Errors". I wouldn't go quite that far, but I do think that of BOC's studio albums, only "The Revolution By Night" is worse than this one. Some of the songs are quite weak, particularly "You're Not the One (I Was Looking For)" -- an obvious ripoff of The Cars' "Just What I Needed" -- and the title track.On the plus side, "In Thee" is probably the prettiest ballad BOC has yet recorded, and "Dr. Music" is energetic and fun.
