world's greatest rock and roll band. .......2007-03-18

attention amazon shoppers! you have to have this record! this is the 3rd greatest rock and roll album ever recorded, behind only the band's debut and coliseum rock!

Searching for Airplay.......2005-10-30

After the commercial disappointment of their second album "Violation", Starz decided to court AM radio with a more tune oriented, less aggressive approach. "Anyway You Want It " was the single that brushed the charts, and that was about it. The rest of the album has some good stuff ("Hold On To The Night", "She", "Don't Think", "The Third Time Is The Charm"), but nothing that would grab a radio programmer's ear. It was also a let down for fans after the classic "Violation", and the solid debut album. Rather than building their core audience, Starz grabbed for the brass ring, and came up empty.

They never made it for a reason.......2005-06-15

Since 1980 I have tried in vain (and hard) to really like this band. Although Starz are comprised of competent players, their songs are simply bogawful! Sorry, it's as simple as this.
(Two star rating for the nice guitar sound)

Their weakest album but it's a good late 70's rock album.......2005-05-30

Of all the Starz albums that I own I would say that this is my least favorite album but it does contain some classic songs like X-Ray Spex, Good Ale We Seek, Hold on to the Night and the 7 minute epic Johnny All Alone, at first when I listened to this album I remember feeling really dissapointed by it and it almost made me gave up on them, fortunately I decided to check and see how good the Coliseum Rock album and I thought that it was a great album, it made me become a bigger fan of them and I went out to buy their first two albums.

I think that Starz should've been as big as KISS, Aerosmith, Ted Nugent and Cheap Trick.

What a masterpiece!.......2005-03-29

You want to know something. Back in early 1978 Led Zeppelin's Physical Graffiti was entering its swan song. With hits like Kasmir and Trampled Under Foot topping the charts of Heavy Metal consumption,there seemed to be a void in the Hard Rock world. Yes, Van Halen was to release their debut album that year. However, there was a group that had already paid their dues, already put out two albums of New York flavored Hard Rock, and already to put out a kick ass new album. Yes!!!!! The band is known as STARZ!!! The new album? ATTENTION SHOPPERS! Pay attention? Hell yes pay attention, because this is one of the most important rock album debuts ever! Beginning with the intro X-Ray Spex through Waitin on You, this album is stunning! Every single song is catchy and will burn into your synapsis guaranteed! It is definitely one of the greatest Hard Rock albums of all times. Do me a favor. The next time you're in your ride and are doing over 70 MPH, have X-Ray Spex blaring through your speakers and you will get it!!!!!!!

Starz ROCKS!.......2004-01-30

Great album from Starz, one of the best Hard Rock bands from the late 70's-this album is more on the power-pop side and maybe not as "hard-rock" as their previous records, but it still rocks, and there's some great tunes here, like "Good Ale We Seek", "Hold On To The Night", "Don't Think", "Waitin' On You" and the haunting epic "Johnny All Alone". As usual with Starz, you get catchy as hell hard rock with lots of great melodies and hooks, and the brilliant vocal gymnastics of Michael Lee Smith. This band-produced album is a near-classic, not their best, but still great on it's own, plus Richie Ranno is one of the best guitarists in Rock and Roll... this album sounds a lot better on cd, than on vinyl. Rock out!!

Not a very good album.......2003-09-25

I think that Starz's third release Attention Shoppers! is their weakest album cause I think that almost all of the songs are somewhat unfocused and the songwriting tends to get lazy cause when it comes to the third chorus, they don't want to finish it, they would rather get halfway through the third chorus and start a fading chorus, and I was kind of dissapointed in it and you think that the whole song would be good but unfortunately it only gets weak, the only songs that are worth having for the album is Hold on to the Night and She, the rest of the songs are forgettable and luckily their next album Coliseum Rock is quite an improvement, if you're new to the band Starz, start with their Greatest Hits CD or Coliseum Rock (their final album) which I think should've been a classic like their debut although I haven't listened to Violation and I would be interested in how good that album would be.
