the band's tenth studio album....
contains probably what many consider their greatest ballad in "the flame"...
excellent cover on here also of Presley's "don't be cruel" which is, IMO, better than the original...
band are leaning a bit more towards the rock ballad thing on this one, but theres still some fine
rock and roll happening...
not sure what I consider their best album but this one isn't far off it...
I LOVE THIS ALBUM
