Title: music speaks for itself
Review: Although many of us would like to forget the big-hair excesses of the late 80s-early 90s scene, we would be fooling ourselves if we denied the quality of some of the music. Two talented bands, Firehouse and Slaughter, caught the last wave of the melodic-rock era and were denied the earlier acclaim given bands like Poison and Skid Row, whose talent was inferior. Songs on this album like Love of a Lifetime and Don't Treat Me Bad withstood the transition to an acoustic format on Good Acoustics (1996), which I would also recommend. Like any other era, it was originality, not big hair and make-up, that determined which music would survive. This album is still a treat for the ear, and I for one am not ashamed to appreciate it for what it is: a good rock n roll album.
