The review notes the brothers' lineage as sons of Ricky Nelson and singles out the hit '(Can’t Live Without Your) Love and Affection.'

For:Fans of late-80s/early-90s AOR and melodic rock; listeners who enjoyed Bon Jovi and Def Leppard-style adult rock.

 Sons of rock 'n' roll singer Ricky Nelson, who tragically passed away in 1985, they inherited from their father a conception of music made of carefree days spent on the beach having fun and doing nothing, but with a musical approach that mixes pop with the guitar energy typical of hard rock.
