Walter Trout has never recorded a bad CD. This is one of his early efforts and its one of my last additions to my complete collection of his releases. The singing is good,the guitar playing is off the hook and the songs are excellent. I regret not buying it earlier as its obviously going to get a lot of play in my house !
Do not come to this album if you're expecting Walters usual blues blasters. Some have accused Walt of being a bit samey?Well this album proves just the opposite. A more rock/stroke ballad album with Walt delivering some of his finest vocals. Motivation Of Love is a rock ballad with a great beat while Endless Variety is more laid back, then we are back to rockin with the title track.Running In Place is one of Walts best vocal ballads with some real nice subtle vocalisation.Deeper Shade of Blue is another fantastic rocky ballad.Kill The Monkey is Walts 90, s eco song, what a rocker....this Monkey has big balls, with a great guitar solo, the kind we Do expect WT to deliver with panache.Face The Night, another super ballad with a superb accoustic solo.Playing With Gloves On is possibly the most well known track on this album as it was frequently performed live, as was Motivation of Love.Shes Missing is the biggy epic here, loud guitar, loud everything in fact.The album ends with another rocker in Fast Moving Traffic.A totally different sounding album that deserves all of the 5 stars ive give.For me this album is about the ballads and Walts fine fine vocal delivery.An exceptional album which should put paid to those who say Walt is a one trick, pony. I would urge fans to buy the cd single Motivation of Love also as it incl.not only different version of Motivation, but also an alternative mix of Transition AND 2 non album studio tracks, Finally Gotten Over You(9min plus blues rocker, the track featured on the live album Live Trout),and a funky little number called As Long As You're Right.
