What a question!But i've only an answer.FORTUNE(85)!!!!!!!!!!The best AOR album ever,from the melodies to the lyrics,from the great vocals to the best keyboard working in history of AOR!Do you want KEYBOARDS?Just listen to"Dearborn station" and you'll understand what i mean.And for all those who think that bands like Journey,Toto,Bon Jovi(AOR?),Stryper(what a joke!) are better,this album is comparable only with Survivor,Blvd,Van Stephenson and Bad English.Where are you AOR Freaky?Please come back.

Journey is more toward hard rock and power ballads. Toto is more toward jazz and pop.
Both albums are excellent in their own genre's.

AOR? hmm Pink Floyd's The Wall!

29/03/03: NOBBY - neil.odonnell5@ntlworld.com
groundbreaking doesnt necessarily mean the best!
in the early days it was BOSTON & JOURNEY, especially 'escape'.
growing up 4 me it was AIRRACE (SHAFT OF LIGHT)+ BRONZ (TAKEN BY STORM) then later on GIANT (L.O.T.RUNAWAYS)+ BOULEVARD (INTO THE STREET).
these are some of the best ever along with STRANGEWAYS(NATIVE SONS + WALK IN THE FIRE) SIGNAL (LOUD & CLEAR) also the VIRGINIA WOLF LPs, HEARTLANDS 1st & TRIUMPH(ALLIED FORCES).
