06072014 - Foreigner "Inside Information"

"Say You Will" was a massive hit, and remains a classic. Still it's taken me until now to hear the rest of the album. It's typical 80's Foreigner, but compared to their previous releases from the same decade this is a bit disappointing. Lou Gramm's singing is the highlight of the record, but the production is a tad too slick for its own good and about half of the songs aren't really as great as they should be. In addition to the aforementioned single, opener "Heart Turns to Stone" and "I Don't Want to Live Without You" are standouts, but there's no reason why I would want to listen to this album over and over instead of "4" or "Agent Provocateur". Fun fact: this album charted higher in Norway (#5) than in any other country! Not that we should read anything into that...
