As entertaining as listening to this album.

Are Metallica the best metal band? Let's not kid ourselves, please. Nice album though, despite the genre change. It's clear that anyone who calls it a piece of shit album is just the classic thrash addict who sees it only as a severe betrayal. The worst for Metallica was yet to come...

Disco from Stendhal syndrome. However, this is not the first album by Rainbow (the first one seems to have an eponymous title), but that doesn’t matter! The Rainbows are fantastic, especially the first three albums!

Seriously a contender for the best Maiden album post '88. Really great, even though it's controversial. I just want to know how many times it has been listened to by those who think it's complete nonsense.

"The work has been validly voted 25 times, obtaining an average of 2.76."
Here's confirmation of how many people are close-minded or simply don't understand anything about music.

Great review, I rate the album 4 only because subjectively it’s not among my favorites, but objectively it’s a godsend for those who enjoy rock. Screw the talk like "How I hate Bon Jovi!", some of my favorite musicians/singers annoy me on a personal level (like Blackmore), find another excuse to tarnish an excellent singer. And of course, nobody appreciates a guitarist like Sambora, rightly described by the reviewer as a great guitarist—not exceptional in technique but with truly remarkable flair and taste.

I trust those who say it’s an excellent review, having never listened to the album, but I’ll give you 5 anyway, especially for the final comment, which I completely agree with regarding how you judged the first three albums. For me too, the quality goes in chronological order in this case: Boston is an absolute masterpiece, Don't Look Back is slightly inferior but still phenomenal, and Third Stage is a great album.

Great, great, and still GREAT! Boston is an extremely underrated rock band; many people only care about "More Than a Feeling," when they actually have plenty of truly beautiful songs! "A Man I'll Never Be" is my all-time favorite song, and I agree with you on how splendid it is; it’s complete and perfectly arranged! It's a shame they had a troubled history and only released 5 albums in almost 34 years...

Anyway, this album is absolutely excellent, but I generally tend to prefer the first one, though it’s always a constant struggle... and then this is the album that introduced me to them, thanks to my father's cassette bought the same year it was released, almost 32 years ago; it’s my most precious "relic," also for the emotional bond!

Great, GREAT album. I also wrote it in another review, this record and "Rock City" by Riot kicked off Heavy Metal!

"This is history"... you said it!
In my opinion, this album and "Sad Wings of Destiny" by Judas Priest created Heavy Metal. A fabulous gem, too bad that, and I will never tire of stating it, Riot are one of the most underrated Heavy Metal bands of all time!

I didn't really like the review, to be honest...
As for the album... pure magic, a gem of rare beauty!
