On their second collaboration outside of Damn Yankees (the first being 1995's HALLUCINATION), guitarist Tommy Shaw (Styx) and vocalist/bassist Jack Blades (Night Ranger) offer up an all-covers set of tunes from the '60s and '70s. While the duo hews closely to the original songs on some tracks (see the straightforward version of the Zombies' "Time of the Season"), Shaw and Blades get more adventurous on other numbers, particularly the amped-up take on Simon & Garfunkel's "I Am a Rock," making for an enjoyable collection of rock chestnuts aimed at an older hair-metal crowd. minimize
