What can I say? A lot of crap on this album. Overproduced. A poor attempt to score hits. The titletrack is a remake of the hits Level 42 scored in the eighties. Some numbers show what a good muscicians they are, and what a damn good bass player King is (as if we not already knew after his impressive live performances: listen to Physical presence, live). The contributions of Alan (guitarist) are not in place since his guitar play doesn''t suite the song material.

After a bit of reformation and a new label, Level 42 releases the first new songs in years.
