Excellent disc that, as per the results to this poll, I never see anyone ever talk about. 'Hell can wait' is my favourite, but most songs on this are great... especially from track 5 onwards.

Yeah I'm big fan of this album as well. I went for track 2 'Time' as the best track for me. I also really like 'One Heart' and 'Desperation Calling'. I own 3 CD singles from this band - all up theres an extra 5 tracks that don't appear on the album. I ripping them to MP3 now if anyones interested in hearing them let me know. BTW does anyone know if the Japanese version of this album has a different track listing or is it the same 10 tracks?

 

EDIT...oops I did mean to say "Hell Can Wait' instead of 'One Heart', Hell Can Wait is a wonderful track.

Okay guys, here's the non-album tracks. I hope I'm not violating the rules here by posting the link, but given that this is just five select tracks from three different out of print CD singles from 1991 I think this should be okay. I'm guessing the majority of people who will be interested already own the album.

 

For fans of the album, these are definately worth a listen, especially as there are three great sounding melodic rock ballads among them.

 

'Straight For Your Heart' should've been included on the album, in fact it could've fit nicely on a Def Leppard album. 'Jackson High' is another brilliant track, better than most of the album. 'More Than I Want' - what can I say - probably close to, if not the best track the band has recorded, a great intro, and once again very Def Leppard-esque.

 

'Can't Take The Credit For It' is an okay rocker, nothing too special and 'Freight Train' is a pretty average track really but shows the band playing in a style not heard before.

Shoot -- I thought this had something to do with the classic ass-kickin' movie starring Patrick Swayze. Never mind, I got nothin'.

[Swazi]

Awesome, Justin !! Thanks !

[Geoff]

Thanks Justin!!

I worked a bit with Smith & Jackson (country band referenced on his MySpace page) and, while I haven't heard the album that was released on RFG Records , the one that was recorded here in Phoenix (and shelved) was PHENOMENAL. Def Leppard with fiddles, basically ...

Wow mate, I have to admit I was not expecting these tracks to be this good. Exactly as you say above, those first 3 songs are absolutely excellent, as good as anything off the album. Especially love 'Jackson High' and 'More than I want'.

 

Thanks again mate, these are awesome. Some definite Ipod additions here...

[edwithmj]

Wow looks like my poll struck gold!

Thanks a lot Fahrenheit.

I've been searching for those CD singles on ebay with no luck and searched for the mp3s with no success.

Roadhouse is definitely a band that should've gone further.

 

EDIT

Here's a Japanese release of this album on ebay. I believe the track listing is the same as there are ten tracks although the seller hasn't said which ones I'm assuming they're the same.

You could always ask him.
