Unfortunately, not so hot !!

Had to rely on the very positive opinions of others here.
Unfortunately, the album as a whole is in my opinion not so hot.
"In the eye of the storm" from 1984 remains his best and most emotional album.
Songs like "Had A Dream" Give me love, give me life "and his best ballad" Only because of you "are for me the best solo pieces that Roger has released.
I just let the Supertramp albums außenvor. The living of the alternation wealth of the two main actors Davies and Hodgson.

Unfortunately copied / Roger repeated here only himself.
Surely it's better than "Hai hai", but also is not difficult, because it was really a letdown.

The title track, "Open the door" and "Death and a Zoo" stand out and are convincing.

"Along came Mary" (quite nice) Barclay James Harvest sends his regards. "Hungry" ala Christopher Cross 80 Style.

"The more I look, the garden, love is the thousend times, say goodbye, for every man" everything ballad-like pieces that I find rather inconsequential.
All in all, for me too little to break out in praise.

On the other hand I think it's terrific that Roger ever after his serious accident in 1987 again can make music.
Maybe he hits so again sometime a low.
Because this album is so mittlweile already 12 years.
And by the beautiful live DVD "Take The Long Way Home"
it would be yet again at the time.
