For the Heartland fans as well as for the critics, the best of their albums is still their self-titled debut album, produced by the great Jimbo Barton and originally released by A&M Records in 1991. At the time band leader and lead vocalist Chris Ousey (ex-Virginia Wolf) was surrounded by Gary Sharpe (ex-Monroe) on guitars, Phil Brown on bass, Steve Gibson on drums and Rik Carter on keyboards. All ten songs were written by Ousey/Sharpe and there wasn’t a weak track in sight. Having been a long time out of print, it’s great to see this collector’s item, featuring such fantastic tracks like the smooth rockers “Real World” & “That Thing” and the heart throbbing ballad “Fight Fire With Fire”. Excellent British AOR!!!
