>BEST AOR ALBUM:Heartland:As it Comes. Fantastic songs, great vocals,
>impeccable arrangements, and crucially for new fans of the band top notch songs
>across the board, no filler.

I know you are a BIG fan of them, but this album to me is just like their rest. Some real killers and loads of filler.

My best AOR album this year is split between T-Bell and Kharma and Journey's Arrival (if it ever gets released!).
