Vocalist Gianni Pontillo knows his Paul Stanley, and don\u00b4t hesitate to sound more than a bit alike. \u201cLong Live Rock\u00b4n\u00b4Roll\u201d is nothing like the RAINBOW tune, but contagious albeit not up to par with the opener. To spoil the fun I must say that there is nothing in here but high octane 80\u00b4s hard rock and hair metal that either chases chicks or goes on a rampage. The lowest point to me is the ballad \u201cA Kiss Under the Rain\u201d, which is far too close to \u201cNovember Rain\u201d by GUNS\u00b4n\u00b4ROSES for my liking. Otherwise the pace is nice, the atmosphere merry, the guitar sound by Bruno Spring fantastic and everything in general as it once was. Apart from the sound by someone not stated in the info sheet, who could in fact be Max Norman! The sound is way better than back in the day. So, what are you waiting for?
