Title: 'Lose yourself....'
Review: This album was a high school graduation gift from a good friend and fellow music nut when it was new. I'll never forget the mood of exhileration this lent to my new 'life' outside the confines of school, and looking back, it seems as if the new producer (Todd Rundgren) gave them new breath as well."Forever Now" just beams with mirth and shimmering joy in places, transposing a lot of the personal angst of former albums to political targets("President Gas") and blossoming into melancholic or ecstatic love songs. "Love my Way" was the hit-that-should-have-been in the U.S. and I don't think they ever topped the soaring guitar-fueled you-and-me-against-the-world feeling of "Run and Run." Although softer around the edges, this album explores new spaces and the instruments (horn sections AND cello) never smother one another in this rich masterpiece that takes on new textures and themes with each listening.If you ask them, I'm sure this is the work they want to be remembered for.
