From the beginning I want to say that the debut album of WINGER is one of the best and most spectaculat debut albums ever in the history of rock music!OK..the band had an impressive pedigree,Winger came from ALICE COOPER...Morgensters from Dixie Dreggs...Reb BEeach was a name too...but the tremendeous quality of the compositions and the sensational muicianship of all WINGER members,made of this album a true musical pearl!It's trully sensational,all compositions are so damn well worked and the solos of Reb Beach are stellar!It's pure US big rock,I won't say metal,it's hair metal maybee,but this album is timeless!A marvelous production with a big sound gave this album all the elements of a strong production and it wasn't any surprise that this album sold more then 1 million copied world wide!It's 100 % commercial,but that's it's charm-it perfectly combines the hard rock riffs with great melodies and choruses.KIP WINGER has a fabulous voice,powerful and warm in the same time ,with a wide range of vocal register in different tones!Madeleine is an excellent debut track with a punchy chorus and this amazing technicity of the solo of REB BEACH-trully impressive on each solo on any track of the album !PURPLE HAZE-the cover song from HENDRIX-proves how a classic can get new musical clothes and become really attractive at another level!All tracks are outstanding !Definitelly a classic-5 STARS for a perfect debut!
