Product description
2009 Neuauflage dieses AOR-Projekts geleitet von Musikern/Songwritern Tom Kelly und Billy Steinberg, die später in den 80er und 90er Jahren Ruhm als sehr erfolgreiches Schreibteam fanden. Ursprünglich im Jahr 1983 veröffentlicht und von Keith Olsen (Fleetwood Mac, Foreigner usw.) zusammen mit Toto-Gitarristen Steve Lukather produziert, zeigen die Tracks einen gesunden Appetit auf die Art von superglänzendem Hi-Tech-Sound, der von Toto, Steely Dan und Journey verwendet wird. Es sind jedoch Steinberg und Kellys Songs, die den Großteil des Kuchens liefern - Lieder, die später von REO Speedwagon, Honeymoon Suite und Heart abgedeckt wurden ('Alone' war ein #1-Hit). Rock Candy.

Reviewed in Germany on 27 July 2013Die CD ist genau das, was ich mir darunter vorgestellt habe. Kann die CD nur weiter empfehlen. Richtig gute Musik
- Reviewed in Germany on 7 August 2013From Fraser Meldrum
Now were talking!!! In my opinion this is the definitive AOR album and the one by which all others should be measured. I still play this almost every week and have done so for the past three years.. As you probably know, i-TEN were basically a duo of songwriters Steinberg and Kelly. These guys have collected together ten of the highest quality cuts you are ever going to hear on a single release, played by a host of the top players from the West Coast session scene.
The title track and "I Dont Wanna Loose You" are cracking rock songs, featuring strong melody with an upfront mix of Keyboard and Guitar interplay. Conversely, "Ive Been Crying" and the legandary "Alone" are killer ballads, highlighting Tom Kellys emotive voice. Elsewhere, "Lonely In Each Others Arms" is a poignant, sparse song, based on a simple synth hook and haunting vocals, whilst "Quicksand" is a consummate slice of quirky pop-rock. Production, as you would expect from probably the best in the business, is crystal clear throughout, complementing the flawless musicianship.
Even though Steinberg and Kelly have since found their fortune composing for mainstream artists, this release remains unknown outside of the AOR community. Will we ever see the likes again? Timeless!!!
Rating 10/10

tahamiReviewed in Japan on 30 November 20105.0 out of 5 stars ルークのプロデュース作品!
数あるメロディック・ロックのアルバム中で、マニアの間では名盤中の名盤として語り次がれている作品である。トム・ケリーとビリー・スタインバーグのプロジェクトなのだが、バックアップのメンバーはTOTOの3人とMike Baird(drums),Richard Page(Ba Vo),Alan Pasqua(key)と超豪華、Heartによりカバーされた"Alone"も入っており正に真の逸品である。彼らが曲を提供してきたアーティストはBangles, Cheap Trick, Alice Cooper, Roger Daltrey, ELO, Heart, Madonna and Rick Springfield.

GBReviewed in Italy on 8 November 20205.0 out of 5 stars Pietra miliare AOR
Grandissimo e allo stesso tempo poco noto album di genere AOR. Ottime canzoni supportate da una serie di artisti di calibro eccellente (Alan Pasqua, Steve Lukater, Steve Porcaro giusto per citarne alcuni).

JBReviewed in France on 30 November 20125.0 out of 5 stars I TEN
J'ai retrouvé un album perdu. Un groupe dont les chansons sont reprise et personne ne le sais, encore aujourd'hui. Tout simplement GENIAAAALLLL.
Mr R CottamReviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 September 20215.0 out of 5 stars An amazing album i overlooked at the time!
Love the era of the music. Think Toto or perhaps Journey. Aor as it was known.
You won't be disappointed. I wasn't.
