A great chorus and check out that happenin’ bass from Chopper Anderson. Sounds like this white boy is giving Louis Johnson (of Brothers Johnson) a run for his money! ‘Midnight Heartache’ pulses along in typical AOR fashion, though is surpassed by the appealing but bluesy riffarama that is ‘Tupelo’. The chorus is straight out of Toto and Airborne territory. For real! Pomp fans are gonna love ‘Say Goodbye’ – keyboards everywhere on this one chaps, even if it is relatively laid back! The southern style is evident on ‘Hard Ride To Heaven’, reminding us of that fantastic 1985 release from Van Zant. It’s AOR, but it’s southern.
