'Eye of The Storm' is the second record by the sensational AOR act led by Kevin Chalfant and Gregg Rolie which I rated slightly higher than their stellar debut. I first knew this band from an old slow rock compilation featuring "Show Me The Way" from the first album and when I got the opportunity to listen to their albums entirely, I was instantly hooked to their harmonic dual vocals in the vein of the great 80s AOR era.

"Don't Give Up" or "Love Isn't Easy" are great examples of slicky beautiful melodic rock while "To Have and To Hold" is a sentimental sweet ballad which can be a perfect wedding song. If you're into bands such as Journey, Foreigner, or Survivor, this is a perfect pick, a classic mind-blowing and unsurpassable album, and after these 15 years, this remained at the top shelf of my favourite AOR albums of all time.
