This was probably the most hard hit album from critics which I think deserves more praise as there are still some cracking songs on the album. The opener 'Secret Messages' is fantastic, just as good an opener as Turn To Stone or Shine a little Love and Time (missing from the official site?

I found this album one of the more difficult ones to get into at first, purely because of the critic reviews and many people saying that it was one of the weaker albums; however when I listened to the songs, I found that they were wrong. There are many fantastic songs on the album, one highlight for me was the first track, Heaven Only Knows where at one section, the vocals rise which provides an uplifting feel and the song as a whole is quick. I liked the addition of the sax in Sorrow about to fall as it gave something new to ELO and was quite catchy.
