This marriage of four players with impressive pedigrees proved to be the
success story of 1982 when 's debut lodged itself at the top of the U.S. album charts for two
months. The album spawned a massive number four single in "Heat of the Moment,"
a follow-up Top 20 hit in the sweeping "Only Time Will Tell," and a handful of
other tracks that received heavy radio play despite going against the grain of
the new wave styling of the day. Produced
by , 's strengths were the powerful vocals
of , the nimble, classically tinged guitar work
of , ' majestic keyboard playing, and anchoring the
band, 's propulsive drumming. The lyrics are overwrought at moments, but
there's no denying the epic grandeur of the music, which provided some
much-needed muscle to radio at the time, and did so with
style.
