A turning point in pop rock, where sweet melodies intersect with sharp guitars.
With the addition of virtuoso Robert Quinn and Richard Lloyd, this album blends the hard-hitting guitars of the late '80s with fresh melodies. While shaping the flow towards their later masterpieces, the album also highlights the solidity of their songwriting with tracks like "Love" and "Vertigo."
This second album, which occupies an important position as the first step in establishing their power pop style, combines fresh melodies with powerful rock expressions tightened by the guitars of masters Robert Quinn and Richard Lloyd. The low-key groove continues from the opening "Easy", and the song structure of "Love" and "Vertigo" stands out, with sweetness and tension intertwined. Sweet himself plays many instruments, creating a unified texture, and the whole album is enveloped in the neat production characteristic of the A&M period. The direction that would lead to their later masterpieces is clear, and this work is filled with the universal appeal of pop rock.
