Agree with pretty much all said by all above although I actually rate TTBK far more now than I did back when expectations were much higher than perhaps they shoulda been!? Actually the song that turned it all around for me was the (typically and criminally left as Japan only bonus tune) Never Walk Alone - exceptional tune that captured everything I liked from the first couple records... Anyway, on the Jorn front I think he need move well past the DIO material and get crazy. I thought his Spirit Black was a step in the right direction but also agree he could move back to a true AOR/MR stylas was the Millenium release (agreed was quite fantastic).

Regardless I hadn't realized he'd left Masterplan and gotta say I find that VERY disappointing TTBK was a decent second start I think another could have been quite something!?
