LA RECENSIONE

Here you have my two idols, Billy Sheehan and Paul Gilbert, what more could you want from this band. This album is a collection of sixteen gems by MR.BIG.

It starts right off with the driving rhythm of "Addicted To That Rush" where the two immediately show what they're made of. Then it moves through the enjoyable "Rock & Roll Over" and "Green-Tinted Sixties Mind", pausing at the splendid ballad "To Be With You" (you must have heard it before).
Equally enjoyable is "Just Take My Heart" and... WHAT'S THIS?! IT SOUNDS LIKE A DRILL! Yes, indeed, "Daddy, Brother, Lover, Little Boy" where the great Paul Gilbert plays the guitar with that drill you heard. A song with a great impact. Just a moment to catch your breath with "Wild World" and... AND NOW? THERE ARE EVEN BARKING DOGS!!!! Don't worry, it's just "Colorado Bulldog" and the MONSTROUS guitar-bass riff silences them, another impactful song with slight jazz undertones. Then it moves to the melodies of "Promise Her The Moon", "Nothing But Love", "Take Cover" (which I really like), "Goin' Where The Wind Blows" and "Seven Impossible Days".

In this collection, MR.BIG gives us three unreleased tracks: "No One Night", "Unnatural" (sung by Paul Gilbert), and "Stay Together".
Finally, the album is graced by the beautiful voice of Eric Martin and the outstanding drummer Pat Torpey.
A MUST-HAVE!!!!!!!!!
