Almost like a haiku.

I wish I could file it under guilty pleasures, but I just can't. No guilt or pleasure from that movie.

@ Malingerer: I don't know, I was pretty high through most of the 80s. Less high in the 90s…now only occasionally high.

Well worth the time. I would also recommend "Dominance and Submission" and "Spectres". And if you haven't heard it - and are a fan of 70s hard rock/metal - I would suggest listening to Judas Priest's "Sad Wings Of Destiny". One of their best; and often overlooked by those who have only heard their early 80's albums.

Corporate Rock was a term applied by some critics because the sound of the album was so slick and polished. Any albums that were "radio-friendly" was deemed corporate rock - it must have been made by committee. I agree the term is misused in Boston's case.

Good call…forgot The Cars debut was in the 70s.
