Walk Tall is the weakest track and why I wasn’t sure about the album at 
first, but even it has some good moments, DS

Hi there,
I've heard only one song yet, that is Walk Tall - well, it is ok. If the 
entire album is of that quality, that is quite good for this day and age. No 
offence, but I must make it clear: it is a huge difference if you have 
Lawton singing (or Ozzy) or if it is some Scandinavian bloke. No offence, 
once again, but if you have clones behind the mike - you'll never make it of 
the same value no matter how good you are at composing. And I do quite like 
"Who needs me" being made by those musicians in 1977, it is a classic song 
:) Time and people make a difference, that is my point.
Take care, Igor
