Shooting Star's poofy hair phase.......2004-03-09

This cd starts off strong with Summer Sun, Somewhere In Your Heart and Heat Of The Night, but soon lapses into tired sounding filler. Summer Sun was one of the great "shouldabeen" songs of the summer of 1985, but despite occasional airplay, it never really caught on. Too bad. Maybe with a hit Gary West would have chosen to stay with the band. Now all we have is Shooting Star part II, a pale and poor substitute. This one is worth it if you find it cheap because the first three songs make a great addition to a career retrospective, plus there is the addition of the previously unreleased songs from the "Up The Creek" soundtrack. Get Ready Boy isn't great, but it was a pretty decent soundtrack song.
(Oh yeah, and for a laugh, check out the band picture on the back cover. Can any of you honestly say that this was a good look?)

Another Great Shooting Star Album.......2003-12-22

SILENT SCREAM is another great album by Shooting Star. The songs are great, and Gary West's voice and Van MacClain's guitar really shine. There are many inspirational songs here, including "I'm Getting Out", "Get Ready Boy", and "Take It", the latter two of which are bonus cuts which truly improve the album. However, the most heart-tugging piece here is "Little By Little", which sums up why I gave up going to my old school's Thanksgiving Dinner in favor of getting in shape for my favorite female celebrities. Overall, this band's Midwestern roots still shine through here, making this band an AOR Outlaws to Survivor's Atlanta Rhythm Section. Whoever described this album as representing "the band's poofy-hair phase" needs some serious anger-management therapy, because first of all, the band did not poof their hair for this album cover, and secondly, the music is just as good as on the first two albums and is much better than its immediate predecessor, BURNING. It's unfortunate that Gary West decided to leave after this one, but at least we have this to enjoy.

One Awesome Band.......2003-04-08

They have to be the greatest band that never had a top 40 hit. How that is possible I don't know. They are one of my all time favorite bands ever. This is their best album but all of the albums are awesome. I listen to this one all the time. Summer Sun , Heat Of The Night , Somewhere In Your Heart and When You're Young are all awesome songs. I have all their albums and also have found them on cds. There's not a bad song on it.

The Most Underrated Album By the Most Underrated Band.......2003-02-07

As many have said, Shooting Star was a band that never came close to getting the recognition they deserved. Completing the travesty is the fact that, after some low-level radio hits, they released this, their apex, and it received no airplay at all outside their native midwestern enclave.

So what sets Shooting Star apart from the slew of 80s arena rock/AOR groups. The answer that comes to most minds is the violin. True, Shooting Star makes the most effective use of a classical instrument in a rock band this side of Kansas, but the answer is much more than that. There is a very pure, middle American authenticity in their music; a purity of purpose that the formulaic appeal to the mindless masses of Survivor or the saccharine sickliness of Journey could never even approach. Finally, while no single musician stands out as a dominant virtuoso, the whole is definitely greater than the sum of its parts.

The opener, "Summer Sun" is a well-crafted tune that serves as a preparation for the real genius that is to follow. "Somewhere in Your Heart" turns it up a notch both in scope and intensity. "Heat of the Night" leads you even further down this path and then they give it to you full on with both barrels with and epic anthem of American youth, the unparalleled "When You're Young." I defy you to listen to that one without turning it up way loud and recalling your teens/early twenties, especially if you hit that stage in the eighties.

Then there's a little relief with the ballad "In Her Eyes," but not much because, while the pace slows, the intensity remains high. Then we get the angst ridden "I'm Getting Out" which speaks universally our human frustrations. A beautifully plaintive song follows with "Don't Walk Away." Back between the eyes with "Time," alternately semi-soft with "Little by Little," and the final cut from the original album, "Don't Stop Me Now," which will have you so fired up, you'll be ready to conquer the world.
The CD throws in a ocuple bonus tracks, which are weak by comparison, but if they were on a Survivor or REO Speedwagon album, they would rule it. Thanks for throwing them in.
True, this is not their last album, but it is the last album with lead vocalist Gary West, whose voice and emotional range was the perfect match for this group. Later efforts had lost the magic.
In short, this album is the pinnacle of AOR; more than just rock and roll, it's meaningful and speaks to us in a way other AOR groups rarely even attempted and certainly never succeeded. GET IT and you will have a new lease on your youth as well as one more injustice to rail against--that these guys never got their due.

This was not their final album.......2001-12-23

O.K. I love everything shooting star ever did...they were fantastic and never received their proper credit in the industrie. This cd may have been their best...but NOT THE LAST!....EVERYONE IS FORGETTING THE 1991 V&R release "It's Not Over" and I know it does exist because I have a copy sitting right beside me while i'm typing this.

Emo kids might like this..........2007-05-19

... Because it certainly made me want to slit my wrists! Seriously though, I don't really know what to think of this album. Aside from being a bit plodding and repetitive, there's really nothing wrong with the music. It has a very heavy sound and a good crunchy production (thanks to Gene). But something about the combination of the music with the vocals makes this album VERY depressing, it's a real chore to listen the whole way through. Perhaps if they had a different vocalist and made their songs a little shorter, this could have been a great album. But as it stands, its just a boring piece of lost early 90s thrash.

Neckbreaker.......2005-05-19

Pretty straightahead thrash/death. produced by Gene Hoglan from Dark Angel. The vocals are not your typical style, takes a little to get used to. Heavy riffs, heavy production, not a bad song on here.

Silent Scream.......2001-01-25

This Japanese Guitarist did a good job on neo-classical album. He played everything and produced by himself. You will be amazed by crystal clear sound. Guitar is very neo-classical and he used lots of chamber and piano. If you like guitarists such as Yngwie, Joe Stump or Michael Romeo, this one is for you. I own over 700 heavy metal, shred, and instrumental CD's and this album is one of Top 5. No kidding!!! His debut album Blind Faith is also good too. Don't miss it!
