To me, this kind of album sets Paul apart from the majority of eletric guitar virtuosos from his generation. He's not only the monster shredder we know so well, but also has a feel for composing good pop rock-like tunes. Personally, I really like this album, and has a great nostalgia in it for me... thanks for the music Paul!

People who don't get this album (Or his other early solo albums) don't fully get Paul...He was heavily influenced by 60's and 70's pop music...This was his answer to that...I personally think this stuff is vastly misunderstood but as someone who understands it, I think its great.

I can tell Paul drew HUGE inspiration from The Szuters/Mike Szuter as far as songwriting. So much so, Paul tapped Mike to play bass for him a few years back.

Ron Williams i have a hard time believing Mike didn’t co-write this. The vocals are so much like mike and cj. Even his playing . I know he was very high influence on mike but man if I heard this and someone didn’t tell me who it was I’d guess the szuters all day long.

I just love THE JIG 12:24 and THE JAM! 36:58 That's what a guitar player flocks to for inspiration! And if you love those then you'd love his CD "GET OUT OF MY YARD" which I played through at least 200 times and it never gets old! No singing pop songs either...because there's enough pop music out there already and Paul Gilbert is a shredder genius and that's where I get my goosebumps from!!
