Agreed. Eye what is your take on Santa Ana Winds. I have said this repeatedly. It's like Survivor's Hotel California. Your thoughts? And has it ever been played live?

I love it...i love that album...it has to be one of the most underated albums in rock history...I'd take it over Vital Signs in many ways (not every way though) and it's far better than WSC...

I loved Jackie Don't Go...

I love the open to Slander. Classic FS. It's what I wish Survivor would have continued to sound like. Just my opinion.

I like that album too but for whateve reason I find CITG a little more consistent. I also like darkier moodier feel. I get the feeling the band was expeimenting a tad. Whatever they did, it worked for me.

The problem with the EOTT album is that it has EOTT is such an anthem, in general people disregard the rest. I still have my EOTT cassette, I wore it out till it snapped! (Played EVERY song, just about EVERY day for a year, till that happened). But its now in safe keeping. 8)

Speaking of EOTT album,bit of trivia, someone told me back in '86 (not a Survivor fan- that Hesitation Dance sounded like Black Sabbath!). Just yesterday read small article stating HD was more Led Zep. Strange eh? I suppose the latter makes more sense, as Frankie's fav. rock band was Led Zep.

See this is the thing with me when I compare DB and JJ. I PREFER DB's inflections. DB seems to know what really works which words to stress as example. Sorry JJ fans :wink:

The One That Really Matters is a gem and needs to be played live. Tottaly underrated.

Ah yes. If they can play Somewhere in America, they should think about playing TOTRM. Both are penned by Jim Peterik.

Why stop there. They should also do Silver Girl because SG is a beautifully crafted song. Top Class.
