This is a different Bolton from the new one he rocked out more after leaving Blackjack he did this one it is really great LP.

All the songs on this album are great. Fools Game is my favorite. I wish he stayed with Rock.

the only good album by Bolton

I love this album, love it love it love it. Michael Bolton was some rocking hairball, that was before he got into christmas too much. This is Michael at his second best, by the way speaking of it, where is Everybody's Crazy 1985 That Is his best album ever and that is the only one the I tunes store doesn't carry? If you have Michael Bolton you ought a have Everybody's Crazy. According to me of course! soo pleasee Anyway, this one five!

I am amazed how such a hard core Hairband Rocker could change in to "Mr. Softy" Michael Bolton was kinda finding his nitch but some songs from the snippets heard here are Okay but i feel the two Key tracks from this Self Titled release from 1983 are the cover of The Supremes "Back In My Arms Again" and the Pop/Rock psuedo Power Ballad "I Almost Believed You" that song showed the soul and heartache that could be heard in his voice.. "I Almost Believed You" could easily be covered by Season 5 American Idol winner Taylor Hicks.. it's a good ballad that was underrated.. I encourage ya'll just to get "Back In My Arms Again" and "I Almost Believed You" .. you will like them!!

This is one great album. It shows Michael in a whole different light than his hit ballads. This is 80s pop/rock at it's bombastic best. It gets you moving and puts a smile on your face!! Long live the 80s.
