Yeah, that's my favourite as well. But the Snakes have always made albums with a couple of lacklustre songs on them. So many great songs spread on so many good albums. But never a true masterpiece.

Well, Ready an' Willing is the exception for me, every song is memorable or at least enjoyable. Of course you got the simple Black & Blue, but what the hell, it's a fun rocker. I would definitely award this the 5 stars. While Lovehunter, Trouble and Come An' Get It are in between the 3 and 4. The later being the most hard-rock driven and being the start of the repetition of riffs/ideas, yet I find it Paice's best effort with the band.

It's absolutely stunning up to and including Ain't Gonna Cry No More. After that it's not particularly pleasing, just a bit of light-weight fun when in the right mood.

^definitely agree that the first 6 songs are top-notch, but the rest like you said is still enjoyable. She's a Woman is a odd number for me, even find it slightly progressive(not for PA of course), but still it doesn't suit quite well the album. What do you think of it?

If you're talking about the lavish keys in it, I get what you're talking about. But that's just Jon Lord

Yeah definitely talking about that. But hey, it's not your typical Jon, he's on the synths this time, pretty unexpected You do have Sarabande by him, don't you? There's some pretty nice moog work there too.

With magic, you can turn a frog into a prince.
With science, you can turn a frog into a Ph.D. and you still have the frog you started with.

What Are You Listening to Now?-The Febus Edition
Do you have any favorite? For me their creative peak is definitely Ready An' Willing, and it's definitely my favorite.
