Four of the tunes are included on the 2CD Anthology. Too bad Sweet Lil Sister and Youngblood were not included but then it would have been a 3CD set  . A very strong album all around. Faves - Youngblood , Honey Child , Run With The Pack , Silver Blue and Gold (what a song! remember hearing it alot in the 80's) and Sweet Lil' Sister. |

And a great album it is! Another case of an album being the best by a particular artist, IMO, but with it getting very little representation on the radio.
Young Blood is a cool cover that so many bands have done.
Silver, Blue & Gold is looked on as a sort of cult classic to the band's fans, but I don't like it anywhere near as much as the next three tracks I will mention.
Live For the Music I think I finally listened to after I realized it made it onto 10 From 6.
Run With the Pack is the one song that actually gets airplay on the rock station here in town.
The reason I originally got this album was to hear Sweet Lil' Sister. I saw it on a radio playlist, and decided to investigate. Found the album on vinyl for a buck at a record show. Loved the song from word go. It is my fave song by them, for sure.The title has special meaning too.

That is surprising that they didn't include 'Young Blood' on it, though, being that it was a top 40 hit. 'Honey Child' is a great album track! |

I hear many of the cuts from Bad Company and Straight Shooter pretty often, but not these so much. A shame, too, because there are some very good songs here, including 'Sweet Lil' Sister'. |
