Contains the one-in-a-million-song "You can do magic" by Russ Ballard fame. I especially like the ballads on this record like "Inspector Mills" or the sweet version of Ian Thomas' "Right before your eyes". I agree to Tore that the songs sound rather unfinished, but all in all this is an entertaining affair. In fact twas the last satisfactory record of the guys till 2007...
One of the very good America-albums. It sounds a bit strange and unfinished but the songs are basically really good, and there are many great musicians here. It has a nice soft rock-feel, and is just a good collection of feel-good songs.
